Damian Lillard is going for a three-peat — and to make All-Star Saturday night history. Only one person has ever won three straight All-Star Saturday night 3-Point Contests, or won the event three times at all: Larry Bird.

Damian Lillard is looking to join Larry Bird and Craig Hodges in an elite club. And Victor Wembanyama will be showing off some skills at All-Star weekend. Lillard, the Milwaukee guard, was announced Friday as one of the entrants in this year's 3-point contest to be held at All-Star Saturday Night in San Francisco on Feb.

The NBA set the field for the 3-point Contest during All-Star weekend in San Francisco on Feb. 15, with a group of eight shooters that includes All-Star Game snub Norman Powell of the Los Angeles Clippers and two-time defending champion Damian Lillard of the Milwaukee Bucks.
