“Yeah I think something took over me, I don’t really know what that was,” said McClung, who became the second White player ever, and first since Brent Barry in 1996, to win the dunk contest.
When McClung made it this time, he pulled his finger across his chest after he landed to signal what we all knew to be true: it was over. Afterward, he said he’d not been able to make that dunk in practice. In the finals, McClung first jumped over just one guy this time, when he took the ball, he spun and pumped twice before dunking.Īnd for his last dunk, McClung put on his Gate City High School jersey, ripped a clean 360, plus another half spin and then single pump. Then, McClung pulled a 360 and windmill, in order, for his second dunk and a 49.8. He said he’d never seen anyone do that dunk before. McClung opened by jumping over not one, but two men (one stacked on the other’s shoulders), took the ball from the top guy, hit the ball off the backboard and slammed it. I haven’t checked, but really just grateful.” I think probably a lot of stuff is happening on the internet and everything. “It’s really a blur to be honest with you. They beat The Antetokounmpos (Thanasis, Alex, and Jrue Holiday, who filled in for Giannis because of a sprained right wrist) and The Rookies ( Paolo Banchero, Jaden Ivey, Jabari Smith).
SALT LAKE CITY – Mac McClung went from the G League to NBA slam dunk champ all in a week.
