Jrue Holiday fell to Damian Lillard in the finals of the Taco Bell Skills Challenge during the NBA All-Star festivities in Houston.

The 76ers guard posted a time of 29.3 to lead the Eastern Conference in the first round and advance to the final against Lillard of the West.

In the finals, Holiday posted a time of 35.6, about six seconds shy of Lillard's 29.8.

Holiday will have a chance to redeem himself a bit Sunday night when he participates in his first NBA All-Star Game.
