Tyler Herro of the Miami Heat has won the 2025 3-point contest Saturday during NBA All-Star weekend. He scored 24 points in the final round to beat out Buddy Hield and Darius Garland.
The NBA 3-point contest starts with eight players competing against each other in the first round with the top three advancing for one more round. Herro finished with 19 points in the first round to rank last among the three players who advanced.
Ultimately, that didn’t matter as he caught fire late to win the crown. You can watch his performance below.
Hield led all players with 31 in the first round, tying teammate Stephen Curry for the most points ever in any 3-point contest round. However, he would come up just one point shy of Herro in the following round.
