Curry sets 3s record, LeBron the winner in NBA All-Star Game

CLEVELAND — Stephen Curry got another 3-point record. LeBron James got another All-Star win.

Not a bad night in Ohio for the two All-Stars from Akron.

Curry turned boos to oohs and aahs with the greatest long-distance shooting performance in All-Star Game history, then James made a turnaround jumper that gave Team LeBron a 163-160 victory over Team Durant on Sunday night.

Curry made 16 3-pointers and scored 50 points, two off Anthony Davis' record. He was clearly hunting it, asking on the sideline during a sizzling third quarter how many points it would take.

"It's pretty special, obviously being back in Ohio," Curry said, seconds after being handed the inaugural Kobe Bryant MVP Trophy.
