These six, along with the rest of the players, showed that the future of the XBA is in safe hands.

Next up we saw the 3 point contest, featuring:

Kevin Durant

Kristaps Porzingis

Jamal Murray

Kemba Walker

Kyrie Irving

Damian Lillard

After astoundingly coming back by making all of his shots on the final rack in BOTH rounds, Damian Lillard was crowned the 3 point contest winner. Competition Manager Doug lost a bet where he bet his real name that kemba walker would win. This would not end well.

The night would soon prove to be disastrous for Doug.

Next up was the dunk contest, featuring:

Zion Williamson

Dennis Smith Jr

Donovan Mitchell

Miles Bridges

Once again, Doug made a bet, stating that if Zion didn't win, he would give away a free prospect. This would not end well.

After 3 rounds, the scores were:

D. Mitchell: 126 (winner)

D. Smith Jr: 118

M. Bridges: 113

Z. Williamson: 110 (dead last)

Sure enough, a custom prospect was given out, as donovan Mitchell won after a controversial dunk which was identical to Zions, yet got far more points.

Finally, it was time for the All-Star game. In pure desperation, Doug bet all he had left: a video on his channel. He bet on team Durant to win. This would not end well

At the end of the first ever all star game, team lebron won by a thrilling 2 points, 98 to 96.

Kevin Durant starred for his own team, scoring a team high 22 points and 2 rebounds

It was Steph curry who stole the show however, scoring 20 points, two of which were the game winner which sunk the dagger into Doug's heart.

That was the end of the 2020 XBA all star games
