Phoenix Suns guard Isaiah Thomas was eliminated in the first round of the Taco Bell Skills Challenge during the 2015 NBA All-Star Weekend at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Thomas was paired in the first round with Houston Rockets guard Patrick Beverley, who completed his challenge by making a layup a moment before Thomas was able to make one of his own.
Beverley went on to win the competition by defeating Milwaukee Bucks guard Brandon Knight in the final round.
Steve Nash remains the only Suns player to win the Skills Challenge, which has taken place every year since 2003. Nash won the competition in 2005 and 2010.
IT is knocked out of Skills Challenge on a buzzer beater. About right this season. Still made us proud. ~ #BobbleIT #NBAAllStarNYC
