Stephen Curry Commits to 2027 NBA Three-Point Contest, Eyes Star-Studded Field in Phoenix

Motivated by Damian Lillard’s third title, Curry is targeting a marquee shooter showdown in his return to the event.

Overview

  • Curry said on NBC he is "100 percent" in for the 2027 contest and has "already scheduled it."
  • He named Damian Lillard, Klay Thompson and Devin Booker as targets, a plan echoed in Lillard’s posted DM exchange confirming Curry’s intent.
  • Lillard won the 2026 competition with 29 in the final round, joining Larry Bird and Craig Hodges as a three-time champion.
  • Booker indicated the 2027 event in Phoenix could be his last Three-Point Contest if he receives an invitation.
  • Curry sat out the 2026 All-Star Game with a lingering right-knee issue despite being voted a starter, and any 2027 field will hinge on health and invitations.
