Dame Time: Lillard, Who Hasn't Played This Season, Will Be in 3-Point Contest at All-Star Saturday
Lillard aims for a historic third 3-point title despite injury, while Mitchell seeks his first win after seven All-Star selections in an eight-player contest.
- On Feb. 8, the NBA announced Donovan Mitchell and Damian Lillard will compete in the 2026 State Farm 3-Point Contest on Feb. 14 at 5 p.m. ET at the Intuit Dome.
- Donovan Mitchell, recently named an All-Star for the seventh consecutive season, was chosen to compete while Damian Lillard has not played this season recovering from a torn Achilles.
