Phil did good.

Tokoto is just an out of control athlete, mind blowing hops.

The little guy Wilson had some nice stuff and Diamond did what you expect a big man to do.

She may actually be able to dunk a little rather than watching Maya Moore and Tina Charles try 10 times each to push it over the rim like a few years back - painful. I love the camaraderie deal and everything but it was much better when they were separate.

i remember candance parker winning the mcdonalds all american dunk contest over jr smiths ridiculous dunk, all she did was tap it in lol.

I was in the house at the Civic Center when Ray introduced himself to all by winning the slam dunk contest as a frosh. Different era, all we had were recruiting bios in magazines. "First night" was a weekend afternoon, it didn't matter 'cause Ray stole the show. Just looked for video but couldn't find anything. Would love to see it again...

I remember Marcus Johnson winning it as a freshman as well.

Candace was the only one to make her dunks in the McD's Championship round. JR Smith & others blew most of their dunks. If you don't make the dunks, then you can't win. Not her fault. Her dunks while non flashy, still were dunks that counted.
