Scorching Steph Curry leads Newsmakers

MANILA, Philippines-Steph Curry put on a blistering shooting display, hitting a record 16 triples in the 2022 NBA All-Star Game in Cleveland.

Curry scored 50 points, two shy from matching the record set by Anthony Davis, to help Team LeBron win a thrilling endgame over Team Durant, 163-160.

Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns also sizzled when he ruled the 3-Point Contest, becoming the first center to do so.

Two-time Olympic gold medalist Mikaela Shiffrin also made the list after she shockingly went medalless at the Beijing Games.

The Alaska Aces and the streaking Magnolia Hotshots round out this edition of Newsmakers.

The Aces are set to exit the PBA after 35 years while the Hotshots remained the only unbeaten team in the Governors’ Cup.
