nba all-star game. kevin durant and klay thompson will be on team lebron facing steph curry, who is on team giannis. lebron james and giannis antetokounmpo selected the teams. tip-off is set for 5:00 p.m. at the spectrum center. last night, steph battled his brother in the three-point shooting contest. abc7 sports anchor mindi bach has the highlights. >> reporter: stephen curry had a lot riding on the three-point shooting contest saturday night. his brother, seth, was also competing. and the brothers made a fairly expensive bet over who would finish higher. steph topped the first round. he scored 27 points, so he advanced to the finals with buddy hield and joe harris. harris of the nets caught fire in the finals. he put up 26 points and hit all five on the bonus rack. those are worth two points each. steph went last and made nine of his first ten shots but still needed to make all of the bonus balls to force overtime. he came up one basket short. but he's okay with it, as larry

beil explains. >> so close, yet so far. steph curry came within one, in and out, of forcing overtime in the three-point shoot-out, instead losing by two points to joe harris. >> it's a make-or-miss league, make-or-miss competition. tough way to end it, but joe shot the lights out. and it was a great show. i think going into this, knowing how strong the field was, whoever won was going to have to earn it. i thought, this guy's not going to miss a shot at all. what was going through your mind? >> it's just such an adrenaline rush. that's what we were talking about on the bench the most is how much fun it is to do this competition. that minute seems like an eternity. just because it's just you and the racks and the basket out there. so, i definitelfun. >> you guys had the bet on this. how does that stand, because you got him in points? >> yeah, we'll have to talk about it. we'll have to get a mediator in

there and see what's going on. >> upon further review, steph said coming in total points would decide this, regardless of the winner, so he will pay for family tickets for life in their head-to-head meetings. yikes! in charlotte, larry beil, abc7 sports. >> yikes, indeed. the sharks faced the canucks six days ago in vancouver, the final game of a four-game road trip and they blew them out. saturday night's game was in san jose and much more evenly matched. mainly, the canucks were not using an emergency goalie and erik karlsson returned. he missed the last nine games due to a groin injury. the defenseman made an immediate impact, set up timo meier for the game-opening goal, his 21st of the year. in the second, tied at 1, logan couture showed patience and beat jacob mark strom. so, the sharks take a one-goal lead after two periods, but the canucks come back. brock besser takes it from bend t net and fools martin jones. that's his 21st of the season. under seven minutes to go in the game and meier's shot is stopped

but joe pavelski is there for the rebound. that is his 31st of the season. the sharks win, 3-2. and the nba all-star weekend comes to a close today with the actual all-star game. as you saw, larry beil is in charlotte. we're going to bring you those highlights from charlotte and from here in studio tonight starting at 5:00. until then, have a great day. all right, let's talk about the weather. lisa, you've got a forecast that will be making a lot of people happy, but we have to first get through today. >> that's right. we still have scattered showers, even though out most of your windows, you're probably looking at a pretty nice sunrise or at least partly cloudy skies. here's the view from sutro, as you notice we've got a few clouds around. there is fog from santa rosa over to livermore, but we are going to enjoy a drier half of the day, and we're experiencing the wet weather right now in terms of the shower activity. so starting out with those cool numbers, in the 40s. and then by noontime, just a few

light showers, mainly over the higher elevations. get ready for the cold air, though. we've got northwesterly winds and then the winds back off for some very cold mornings come monday and tuesday. there's tahoe and the snow looks like it has stopped for the time being. but we s winter storm warning. in fact, the chair lifts look like, well, it's a little early, too, right? yeah. so, we will be looking at temperatures only in the 20s and teens there, and that winter storm warning for the greater lake tahoe area until 4:00 this afternoon. locally, here's a loop of the last three hours, and you can see the snow accumulating, perhaps 3 inches or so around mt. hamilton, where it's 29 degrees. and you can see the showers back westward and southward, south of san jose, 87. edenvale, bangor avenue and santa theresa boulevard. and towards the summit, highway 17, certainly slick out there. the rain-snow mix. the moisture now is mainly in the south bay, the peninsula. and so, what's left of it will be just the scattered showers throughout the day today.

and we go further south, right along the central coast. if you're looking at traveling to the south, san luis obispo, monterey, some active weather there, but all right here in the mountains as we still are looking at probably 5 to 7 inches of additional snow. the pink representing winter storm warning. and the winter weather advisory from the west slopes and over towards reno, 7:00 tonight. so, if you've heard about the snow, well, have you heard about squaw where they shattered an all-time record? over 205 inches of snow for february. that shatters the old record of 196 inches. and look at the rest of the areas over the past three days. thursday, friday and saturday totals from 3 feet to about even 8 feet or better. so, unbelievable snow amounts there. and the powder, the light powder continues throughout the day today. back home, it is 43 in san jose as well as half moon bay, 44 san francisco. from mt. tam, you can see some of the fog there. and above looking at the clear sky, 38 petaluma, 34 santa rosa.

those northwesterly winds picking up, and we're looking at another vantage point here from walnut creek. scattered showers throughout the higher elevations today and looking at the gusty winds. we saw the snow over mt. hamilton. it will be sunny and dry monday and tuesday. so the next several hours, the showers become less widespread. in fact, we're looking at isolated showers. 10:00, partly cloudy conditions. and then just along perhaps the east bay by 4:00 or 5:00, a few light showers, maybe snow showers, mt. hamilton. otherwise, we are looking at the rainfall totals adding up this morning to anywhere from a couple hundredths to perhaps a tenth out there. so, very light amounts. but boy, those winds are not going to let up today. 15 to 32 miles an hour. the strongest winds really right now, the next couple of hours, into sunset and in between, 15 to 25 miles an hour. so, we are looking at 7:30 and the winds are pretty gusty here still, so it's going to feel

colder out there and highs are just going to barely manage to make it to near 50 degrees, how about that, in livermore, low 50s for the rest of you, palo alto, 51 morgan hill. and tonight with a little wind out there, we're still going to be cold. usually the wind will mix the atmosphere and help us from freezing, but numbers below freezing in our inland valleys. how about 33 in livermore, and in the accuweather seven-day forecast, a one on our storm impact scale. most of the activity this morning, isolated showers this afternoon. the snow, mainly mt. hamilton, maybe mt. diablo. a break for the holiday and tuesday. we're not going to warm up much. in fact, the next weather maker will be a one on our storm impact scale on wednesday. dry the rest of the week and then you can track the temperatures instead of the rain on live doppler 7. erll head up tt. hamilton later today. >> no doubt. >> lisa, thanks. with streaming services like netflix or on demand, it's easy to stay in for the night, but a new type of experience in the south bay aims to get people off the couch and back into the movie theater. >> remember the mission. execute the mission.

future we've read about in science fiction and seeing on tv, and we said to ourselves, we can build that. >> reporter: teams of up to four can go in at a time. prices range from 20 to 30 bucks a ticket, depending on the day you play. >> i'm definitely afraid of heights, so in that last moment of us walking out, having to -- like there's air on the floor you're going to fall in, that was definitely the scariest part. >> these folks taking it all in. >> this way, way exceeded my expectations. i mean, this is unbelievable. i've never experienced something like this. i don't say that often either. >> not going to lie it was pretty awesome. spaces hopes to unveil a new virtual reality experience every three months. next, a surprise announcement from one of country music's biggest superstars. what miranda lambert says happ
