Marco Belinelli claims three-point crown at All-Star Saturday event

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Marco Belinelli has won the Foot Locker three-point contest at the NBA All-Star Saturday night event.

The former New Orleans man held his nerve to overcome Bradley Beal with a tie-breaker-round victory on the second night of the league's showcase weekend.

Beal had previously delivered with his final six shots, including two money-balls worth two points each, to tie Belinelli's initial final-round score of 19.

However, the Spurs player produced in the tie-breaker to notch an event-high score of 24 to claim victory.
