Kristaps Porzingis won the NBA Skills Challenge Saturday, beating out a number of the game's best players.

The skills challenge is often a guard's contest, as it makes players dribble, shoot and pass. But Porzingis isn't an everyday 7-footer.

The Knicks star drained a clutch 3-point shot on his first attempt in the final against Gordon Hayward to beat the Jazz forward.
