  • Mac McClung will leave it up to others to decide where he ranks among the best dunkers ever. When it comes to the dunk contest, there is no doubt.

Mac McClung made history by becoming the first player to win the NBA Slam Dunk Contest three times in a row, showcasing his remarkable athleticism and creativity at the event held in Indianapolis. Despite not being a household name in the NBA, McClung, who plays for the G-League's Osceola Magic, has now solidified his status as a dunking legend. His winning performance included a spectacular 540-degree dunk, which earned him a perfect score from the judges. McClung's achievement is particularly notable as he has only played in two NBA games, highlighting the contest's focus on individual skill rather than professional accolades. His victory adds to the lore of the Slam Dunk Contest, following in the footsteps of legends like Michael Jordan and Dominique Wilkins, who also left indelible marks on the event.
