Damian Lillard won in 2024, Jayson Tatum won in 2023 and Antetokounmpo won in 2021. Lillard and Tatum haven’t played this season due to injury. If the favored Wemby is to win MVP, it will be his first trophy in his second All-Star Game.

Keshad Johnson: +320 (bet $10 to win $42 total)

What to know: For the first time in three years, we will have a new Slam-Dunk Contest champion. Mac McClung won the event three years straight, but he is not in the field this season. Carter Bryant is a rookie forward for the Spurs, Jaxson Hayes is a seventh-year center for the Lakers, Keshad Johnson is a second-year forward for the Heat, and Jase Richardson — son of two-time Slam Dunk Contest champion Jason Richardson — is a rookie guard for the Magic.
3-Point Contest winner
Kon Knueppel: +270 (bet $10 to win $37 total)
Damian Lillard: +410 (bet $10 to win $51 total)
Devin Booker: +550 (bet $10 to win $65 total)

Norman Powell: +950 (bet $10 to win $105 total)
Bobby Portis: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total)
What to know: Kon Knueppel, a rookie Hornet, is on pace to become one of the game’s most prolific 3-point shooters in only his first season. He recently broke Curry’s record for 3-pointers made by a rookie (166 — Knueppel has already made 179), and he’s currently fifth in the league with 3.4 made 3s per game. As for Lillard, he will look to become the third three-time winner (Larry Bird and Craig Hodges), and will look to accomplish the feat as he recovers from a torn Achilles suffered last season.
