NBA 3-Point Contest Participants for 2025

Of course, we can’t make any NBA 3-Point Contest predictions without first knowing the NBA 3-Point Contest participants, so let’s quickly share them with you:

 

 

 

2025 NBA 3-Point Contest Predictions For Saturday, 2/15

Now that you’ve seen who is going to be shooting from deep, we also have a chance to see history made. If Damian Lillard is able to win yet again in 2025, that would mark his third straight victory of the event, making him the third player to ever do so.

That’s a lot of threes being thrown around, and it’s why it should come as no surprise that the NBA 3-Point Contest odds have Lillard as the favorite. What will make his three-peat even more unique is the fact that he has won his first two while on different teams - the Portland Trail Blazers and Milwaukee Bucks.

Before locking in any NBA 3-Point Contest predictions, be sure to remember that each contestant has 70 seconds to shoot five racks of five balls each including money balls. There are also two rounds with the top three from the first round advancing to the final round.

 

 

 

Best NBA 3-Point Contest Bets & Picks: Buddy Hield

Now that you’re locked and loaded with the ins and outs of all things regarding the NBA 3-Point Contest, who is our pick? We’re going to be focusing our NBA 3-Point Contest predictions on Buddy Hield.

The Golden State Warrior has some of the longest NBA 3-Point Contest odds, and frankly, ones that are longer than we expected. That’s not to say that Lillard doesn’t deserve to be the favorite, but let’s not forget, Buddy has won this event himself as well.

While it was back in 2020, we still have faith when we’re getting some juicy +500 odds. Hield may not be leading the NBA in 3-point percentage right now; however, this event has been won by the league leader since 2009! So, it’s far from a requirement, and even still, Hield is shooting 36.7% from deep this season, including several games of over 44% this month alone.

With the comfort of having been in this specific spotlight before, the best bet from our NBA 3-Point Contest predictions is Buddy Hield (+500 at FanDuel Sportsbook).
