All-Star Game returned to Salt Lake City on Sunday night and gave us another match to remember. Team Giannis managed to end Team LeBron’s unbeaten run as a captain, largely thanks to Jayson Tatum, who won MVP honors after scoring All-Star Game-record 55 points. LeBron James’ team won every All-Star Game since the introduction of captains in 2018, but his side wasn’t as lucky this time around. Giannis Antetokounmpo proved to be a worthy captain and led his team to an epic All-Star Game triumph. His side managed to win 184-175, largely thanks to Jayson Tatum, Donovan Mitchell, and Damian Lillard. Tatum was on top of his game on Sunday night, scoring 22 of 31 from the floor, in addition to having ten rebounds and six assists. He managed to break Anthony Davis’ All-Star record of 52 points by scoring three more and ended up winning the ASG MVP Award. “It means the world. You think of all the legends and great players that have played this game, and in all honesty, records are made to be broken. I'll hold it for as long as I can, but I'm certain someone will come along in a couple years and try to break it," said Tatum post-game.
