Mac McClung · For one breathtaking night, Mac McClung was the center of the NBA universe. The undrafted journeyman captivated a world hungry for a memorable Slam Dunk Contest — first catapulting over two helpers with a reverse dunk tapped gracefully off the backboard, then wowing the Salt Lake City crowd with an epic 360-degree windmill. McClung was far from through, also soaring over another helper to stick a double-clutch reverse and then finishing with a jaw-dropping 540-degree spin-and-slam while repping his high school jersey and declaring the contest over. McClung’s nearly flawless showing — 19 of his 20 scores from the judges registered as perfect 50s — was an instantly iconic evening in Slam Dunk Contest history as the Philadelphia 76ers guard captured the crown on February 18, 2023. · State of Mint
