Hooped Up | February 16, 2013
The Blazers’ Damian Lillard became the first rookie to win the Taco Bells Skills Challenge, defeating Jrue Holiday by 5.8 seconds in the final and earning 10 points for the Western Conference in the State Farm All-Star Saturday Night competition.
“I think the biggest thing for me was to try not to be too cool and speed through it,” Lillard said, “but take my time with the passes and shots.”
Lillard’s time of 28.8 seconds in the first round was the best of the night.
