   If it’s three dunks:

   1st round: Dominique dunk (just cuz he’s from Atlanta)
   2nd round: Dee Brown dunk (#7, Brown, Celtics) makes sense
   3rd round: His own

   I’m already dreading the memes that will come from this if he underperforms but good on him for not giving a shit about that and going through with it, unlike all the stars who have avoided participating for the last decade

   Fuck, now I need to stay up till 1:30am UK time to watch the dunk contest!

   MacClung is a crazy good dunker.

   I want to see it come down to him and Jaylen.

    Is that, like, Obi’s older brother that never made it out of the g league?

    Who is Jacob Toppin?

12. Moon_Pi_Kook 9 months ago

    McClung might just win this again, then. He’s athletic and creative.

    Jaquez, he’s a sleeper here. Just watch his high school dunk contest. Excited if that translates into the NBA contest.

    Jaylen, I love you man, but unless he has something under his sleeve, he’s really more of an in game dunker. I’m gonna root for you anyways!

    Obi Toppin and Mac are next level dunkers

    Will be dope to see how JB shows out in this setting tho

    Jaylen? My boy who is constantly injuring muscles in his legs?

15. boykalbo777 9 months ago

    Its either gonna turn out so good or so bad no inbetween for JB!

16. EricFortman 9 months ago

    After seeing Donovan Mitchell’s dunk off the backboard last night, I think he and Jaylen should both participate.

    Dunk 1: Rebound a bricked three pointer with a putback dunk.

    Dunk 2: Contested dunk over a wavy wacky inflatable tube man.

    Dunk 3: Windmill dunk over a mini windmill.

    The first time since Michael Jordan, the highest paid player in the league is competing in the dunk contest.

21. WooNoto 9 months ago

    I would rather he didn’t do this right now. BUT GO COOK MY BOYYY.
    Give pro dunkers this platform.

22. Thanks4DaOpportunity 9 months ago

    I didn’t know Jaime was like that

23. SultanofSwish 9 months ago

    This is a disaster waiting to happen. What is he thinking?

24. Remarkable-Fruit8378 9 months ago

    This is a great way for him to silence the left hand doubters as he dunks equally well with his left and off his left foot as his right. He can also jump off both equally as high

25. friendly_tanod 9 months ago

    I am whelmed

26. PebblyJackGlasscock 9 months ago

    Does Kristaps count as one prop or two because of his size?

27. platyhooks 9 months ago

    I don’t think Jaylen has a shoe deal. I want the fucking pumps to show up.

28. jnobes7 9 months ago

    TIL: Obi has a brother.

29. Tiredasheckrn 9 months ago

    Has a player ever injured themselves in the dunk contest? You all act like the dunk contest has a 25% chance of someone doing a Paul George and snapping their leg in half

30. sortageorgeharrison 9 months ago

    Obie toppin is a real threat

31. iAm-Tyson 9 months ago

    Max is strictly on a roster because of the dunk contest if he doesn’t win it’d be a shocker

32. captaincumsock69 9 months ago

    Is brown the best player to participate in recent memory?
