2014 Game

The game was roughly even from the tipoff until halftime, as the East only led by 1 point. The second half was much of the same - a close, back and forth game. The East took its first lead of the second half with 8:30 remaining on 2 free throws by Myisha Hines-Allen and then both teams seesawed back and forth until the finish. The East tied up the game again on 2 free throws of their own by A'ja Wilson. The West came back and Jordin Canada found Brianna Turner open right inside the free throw line for the game winning basket to give the West a 2-point win. [1]

The McDonald's All-American Game is the all-star basketball game played each year for American and Canadian boys' and girls' high school basketball graduates. Consisting of the top players, each team plays a single exhibition game after the conclusion of the high-school basketball season, in an East vs. West format. As part of the annual event, boys and girls compete in a slam dunk contest and a three-point shooting competition, and compete alongside All-American Game alumni in a timed team shootout. The last of these competitions replaced separate overall timed skills competitions for boys and girls. It is rare for girls to compete in the slam dunk contest. They have, however, won it three times—in 2004 by Candace Parker, in 2019 by Fran Belibi, and most recently in 2022 by Ashlyn Watkins. The boys' game has been contested annually since 1978, and the girls game has been played each year since it was added in 2002.
