The G-League star stole the show in Saturday night’s dunk contest.
The 2022 NBA G-League Rookie of the Year Mac McClung was the betting favorite to win Saturday night’s Slam Dunk Contest despite playing in just two career NBA games.
And when the Delaware Blue Coats guard arrived in Salt Lake City, he made sure everybody remembered his performance.
The 24-year-old McClung posted not one, not two, but three perfect 50 score dunks en route to winning the slam dunk contest.
McClung edged Pelicans wing Trey Murphy III in the final, and also beat Rockets wing Kenyon Martin Jr.

The Knicks’ sharpshooter left his own kid less than impressed.
Knicks star Julius Randle was a late addition to the NBA Three-Point Contest at All-Star Weekend, replacing Trail Blazers sharpshooter Anfernee Simons. Randle struggled in his lone round of the competition, scoring just 13 points, the second fewest of the playing pool, outdoing only Kings wing Kevin Huerter. 
The performance from the New York All-Star was so bad, his own three-year-old son, Kyden, was brought to tears in the crowd in what was a priceless reaction.

The Wolverines honored their in-state rival with a series of special moments ahead of Saturday’s game.
