The best behind the stripe converged on the Smoothie King Center Saturday Night for the 2014 NBA Three-Point Contest.
On a night filled with mostly mediocre shooting, it was San Antonio's Marco Belinelli and Washington's Bradley Beal who emerged as the event's finalists. After Belinelli posted a final round score of 19, Beal came through with a clutch performance, knocking down his last six shots to force overtime.
In extra round, Belinelli caught fire, using a 13-of-15 stretch to put together a final round score of 24. Beal was only able to tally 18 points in overtime, making Belinelli the 2014 Three-Point champ.
Belinelli's hot shooting was done in a colorful, custom make-up of the Nike Hyperdunk 2013. Take a closer look at the winning kicks and all of the other Three-Point Contest shoes below.
