Who is the 2024 NBA All-Star Game MVP? Stats, performance and more explored

Damian Lillard was named the 2024 NBA All-Star Game MVP after leading the Eastern Conference to a 211-186 win over the Western Conference. He finished with 39 points, three rebounds and six assists, shooting 53.8% from the field and going 11-for-23 from beyond the arc.

The game was close in the first quarter before the Eastern Conference turned the tide and dominated the second period led by Lillard, who ended the first half with 22 points. Jaylen Brown and Tyrese Haliburton had huge games for the East, while Karl-Anthony Towns dropped 50 points for the West.

The East set the record for most 3s in an All-Star Game (42), but the other record broken was the most points scored by a team (211). It's the first time in All-Star Game history that a team scored at least 200 points. The previous record was 196 in 2016 by the Western Conference.

Damian Lillard hit 2 half-court shots in NBA All-Star Game

Damian Lillard hit two half-court shots.

Damian Lillard made 11 3-point shots en route winning the Kobe Bryant All-Star Game MVP award. Two of his 3-point shots were from the half-court, and he made it look easy. Lillard, along with Steph Curry, probably has the longest range in the NBA.

Lillard was booed by the Indiana crowd after being announced the MVP. He plays for the Milwaukee Bucks, so the Pacers fanbase does not like him, especially with what happened between the two teams this season. Many are even praying for the Bucks and Pacers to meet in the playoffs this year.

Nevertheless, it has been a great weekend for Lillard. He also won his second straight 3-Point Contest on Saturday, outlasting Trae Young and Karl-Anthony Towns.

Bucks fans should hope that Lillard's success in the All-Star Game trickles down to the regular season, as he's shooting just 34.1% from beyond the arc.
