Saturday night, we were all treated to one of the more exciting events of the entire NBA season as the NBA Slam Dunk contest took place before our very eyes.
Every year during All-Star Weekend on Saturday night, some of the most athletic players in the entire league gather and show of their skills in the art of the slam dunk.
This year, Paul George of the Indiana Pacers, Terrence Ross of the Toronto Raptorsand John Wall of the Washington Wizards represented the Eastern Conference, while Damian Lillard of the Portland Trail Blazers, Harrison Barnes of the Golden State Warriors and Ben McLemore of the Sacramento Kings represented the Western Conference. In the end, it was Team East who took the title, with John Wall being named the ‘Dunker of the Night.’ Here’s a look at the highlights from tonight’s festivities…
