The 2027 3-point contest is about to get a legendary upgrade! NBA superstar Stephen Curry has announced his return to the thrilling competition, aiming to reclaim his crown. But here's where it gets intriguing: this marks Curry's comeback after witnessing fellow veteran Damian Lillard's triumph in Los Angeles. Curry, currently sidelined with a knee injury, made the announcement during the All-Star game, adding that he'd love to have his former teammate Klay Thompson by his side.
Curry, the undisputed king of 3-pointers, has dominated the contest before, winning in both 2021 and 2015. With another victory, he could match Lillard's recent achievement of winning three 3-point contests. Curry's stats speak for themselves: he leads the league in 3-pointers made eight times, a testament to his unparalleled shooting prowess. This season, he's maintaining a solid 39.1% accuracy from beyond the arc.
And this is the part most fans have been waiting for—the chance to see Curry back in action, showcasing his iconic long-range shooting. Will he reclaim his title, or will there be a new champion? The 2027 3-point contest just got a whole lot more exciting! What do you think? Is Curry destined to win again, or is there another sharpshooter ready to steal the show?
