Arrr, me hearties! The scallywags of the Eastern Conference All-Stars plundered 211 doubloons to best the Western Conference landlubbers in a fierce battle of hoops in Indianapolis on the eve of Sunday. Aye, a record for the ages indeed!
In a swashbuckling display of basketball prowess, the Eastern Conference All-Stars plundered an NBA-record 211 points to defeat the Western Conference in the 2024 All-Star Game in Indianapolis. The final score of 211-186 marked the highest total points ever scored in an All-Star Game, with Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard claiming the MVP title in his inaugural appearance for the East. Lillard's 39-point performance, including 11 three-pointers, dazzled the crowd, but local hero Tyrese Haliburton stole the show with 32 points, including 10 three-pointers, much to the delight of the Pacers faithful.Minnesota Timberwolves' Karl-Anthony Towns also made waves with a whopping 50-point game off the bench, while LeBron James made history with his 20th consecutive All-Star Game appearance. Giannis Antetokounmpo showcased his athleticism with 23 points and Jaylen Brown added 36 points for the East squad. The West's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Towns put up strong performances, but it was ultimately the Eastern Conference that emerged victorious in this high-scoring spectacle of basketball brilliance.
