NBA State Form 3-Points Contest 2026: Roster, Schedule, Date, Times, How to Watch, TV channel, Live Stream, Winners & More

State Farm All-Saturday Night brings together the NBA’s biggest stars in a celebration of the skills that make the NBA great. With four action-packed events, it’s always one of the most eagerly anticipated nights on the NBA calendar.

— Damian Lillard might be sidelined for the entire NBA season after tearing his Achilles in April, but he still showed he’s got the purest jumper in the league, winning the 2026 NBA All-Star Saturday State Farm 3-Point Contest.

Back in a Portland Trail Blazers uniform, Lillard was money when it mattered most, posting 29 points in the final round. He hit 21 of his 27 shots, including one of the two “From the Logo” balls (worth three points each), to claim the title for the third time in the last four years.

Devin Booker made it seriously tense. He came in red-hot, leading the first round with a massive 30, and in the final he even had two perfect racks. But with the contest on the line at his money-ball rack in the right corner, he missed his final three shots and fell short.

Charlotte rookie Kon Knueppel finished third with 17 in the final, after advancing alongside Lillard.

Lillard joins Larry Bird and Craig Hodges as the only players to win the 3-point Contest three times.
