    My vote for token white guy in the dunk contest goes to Cody Zeller. I don't see why Plumlee enters instead of him.

    Really, Oladipo as the favourite? I just don't see it. I think LaVine is the favourite based on current participants.

    LaVine or Oladipo should be favourites based on their vert and highlights, we'll see.

    Don't understand why Wiggins isn't in it, especially after the hype and vert pic&videos.

    If Lavine is not in this it is a joke. He will win hands down.

    If they wanted to get someone from the home team(BKN) to represent they should have picked Cory Jefferson and I'm not just being a Baylor homer.

    They should have the Dunk Contest to be NBA player 1, NBA player 2, D League player, and open spot.
