CelebNSports247.com has learned that Thompson made only two of his five shots, leaving him to watch Charlotte’s Kemba Walker, Houston’s Eric Gordon and Cleveland’s Kyrie Irving move forward.
In the end, Gordon hoisted the trophy after recording a 21 in the tie-breaker, three points better than Irving.
Klay Thompson Eliminated!
Klay Thompson weighed in saying:
“I take any competition seriously. You want to put together the best performance. It just feels like a loss in the season.”
This year Warriors guard Stephen Curry declined his annual invitation to the contest. Maybe Curry was trying to hand it to Thompson, but he failed to come perform. In the end Klay Thompson tried to defend his title but as you can see below he choked and missed to many 3-point shots during the contest.

Eagles Eyeing DeSean Jackson and LeSean McCoy!
The Philadelphia Eagles RUMORED to Eyeing receiver DeSean Jackson and running back LeSean McCoy, since they’re both listed as possible cap casualties by the Buffalo Bills.
LeSean McCoy was once the Eagles’ all-time leading rusher with 6,792 yards during his six years in Philly. He was dubbed one of the Eagles best players. McCoy played for the Eagles from 2009 to 2014.
Meanwhile, veteran receiver DeSean Jackson pending free agency has piqued fan interest in a second chapter in Philly. The 30-year-old game is built on speed, and he already has 127 games under his legs. Jackson played for the Eagles from 2008 to 2013.
So who does Eagles fans want to see back in Philly?
