GOLLIVER: Midseason grades for every NBA team

Curry, who will also start for the Western Conference and was the leading vote-getting for the All-Star Game, has been in the contest each of the past two seasons.

Korver leads the league in three-point field goal percentage, shooting 53 percent, and Thompson is third at 46 percent.

San Antonio Spurs forward Marco Belinelli won the NBA's three-point contest last season.
