Buddy Hield hits 4 out of 5 money balls on his final rack, including the dramatic final shot to WIN the #MtnDew3pt contest with a score of 27! #NBAAllStar #SacramentoProud pic.twitter.com/8lfhZz8NWo— NBA (@NBA) February 16, 2020
"I felt great, " Hield said, via ESPN. "Like I said earlier, as a shooter, this is on your bucket list. You have to come in, and you want to win a 3-point shootout. With a stacked field like that, it makes it even better.
"Pressure is on, and you've got to show up."
Hield outscored Booker, 27-26, in the final round of the contest after the two guards scored 27 in the opening round.
Trae Young, former Oklahoma standout turned Hawks guard, was eliminated in the first round.
Here's how the Twitterverse reacted to Hield's win:
