2016 All-Star Game

The 2016 All-Star game wasn’t the most competitive game ever. The West would win with a runaway 196-173 win. Russell Westbrook would win his second straight MVP with 31 points.

While this wasn’t a great game from a competition standpoint, it was certainly one of the most memorable games. This was Kobe Bryant’s final all-star game appearance. The weekend was dedicated to celebrating his marvelous career.

The night was highlighted with Kobe and LeBron battling for the opening tip. It also featured memorable images of LeBron guarding Kobe one-on-one.

LeBron finished with 13 points on 6 of 13 shooting.
