The 71^st edition of the NBA All-Star Weekend couldn’t have asked for a more poetic ending. LeBron James, the prodigal son of Akron, made his return to Cleveland and ended up knocking down the game-winning shot.

This year’s ASG was as energetic and action-packed as everyone expected it to be. Stephen Curry exploded for 50 steph-ortless points, shattering numerous records with his 16 three-pointers, Joel Embiid had an entertaining 36-point double-double, Giannis too had an outstanding 30-point double-double, Morant and LaVine provided us with some of the best dunks we’ve seen all weekend long (yes, including the dunk contest). However, it was LBJ who put the cherry on top of the cake by scoring the game-winning points.
