Ben Golliver: 2024 NBA All-Star Game MVP Damian Lillard on East’s record scoring performance in 211-186 win over West: “Two hundred [points] is a lot. It just shows we didn’t go out there and compete like I guess you’d want us too or whoever would want us to. That’s just what it is.”

After 3: East 160, West 136
The East has gone 33-for-70 from 3 through three quarters. Damian Lillard leads all scorers with 33 points.
There was a brief level of energy to begin the game. It’s quickly gone away, and has essentially become a repeat of last year’s game. – 10:18 PM

East leading the West 104-89 at half. That’s 193 combined points.
Lillard has a game-high 22 points, Haliburton with 18 — all on 3s (6).
Lillard’s coach, Doc Rivers, is coaching the East and Haliburton is still on a minutes restriction.
Now, time for Jennifer Hudson. – 9:33 PM
