Draymond Green and DeMarcus Cousins both believed a big man would win the NBA Skills Challenge at All-Star Saturday night in Toronto.
They were right, but unfortunately, neither of them was the one taking home the trophy.
Timberwolves rookie Karl-Anthony Towns was the star of a contest that only featured guards until this year, upsetting Isaiah Thomas of the Celtics after defeating Green and Cousins in the big-man portion of an eight-man bracket.
Anthony Davis of the Pelicans also competed for the bigs, while guards C.J. McCollum of the Blazers, Jordan Clarkson of the Lakers and Emmanuel Mudiay of the Nuggets rounded out the pool.

Green was back in action immediately after the Skills Challenge, tying Hollywood personality Kevin Hart in a three-point shootout.
Both Green and Cousins will compete in Sunday's All-Star game as reserves for the Western Conference.
