Jayson Tatum scored an NBA All-Star Game-record 55 points on his way to winning MVP honors, and Team Giannis ended LeBron James’ hold on All-Star captain supremacy by beating Team LeBron 184-175 in the NBA's annual showcase exhibition on Sunday night.
Team Giannis forward Jayson Tatum drives during the first half of the NBA All-Star Game, Feb. 19, 2023, in Salt Lake City. Jayson Tatum put on a record-setting show, and made Giannis Antetokounmpo look like a genius.
Tatum broke Anthony Davis’ All-Star record of 52 points. He was 22 of 31 from the floor, plus had 10 rebounds and six assists. Brown and Tatum — Boston teammates — were reveling in a back-and-forth duel during a stretch of the second half.Lillard, the winner of the 3-point contest on All-Star Saturday Night, made eight 3s — including a halfcourt pullup in the third quarter.
Malone and Abdul-Jabbar were brought to the stage, and then Dwyane Wade — James’ former teammate in Miami and now a part-owner of the Jazz — introduced James to bring him onto the platform. He finished with 13 points, and said a chasedown block in the first half led to him getting a finger caught in the rim.James played a half. The game’s other captain didn’t play a half-minute.
“Whatever I have, I’m going to give,” Antetokounmpo said. “That’s who I am. That’s never going to change.”
