Description

The 2024 NBA Slam Dunk Contest in Indianapolis features Mac McClung returning to defend his title. The G League sensation is the heavy favorite to join the elite list of back-to-back winners. Challenging him is a high-profile field: Boston All-Star Jaylen Brown, Heat rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr., and Knicks prospect Jacob Toppin (brother of 2022 champ Obi Toppin). Brown’s inclusion marks a rare appearance by an established superstar, adding significant intrigue to the night.

Result Description

Mac McClung became the first back-to-back Slam Dunk champion since Zach LaVine, clinching the 2024 title with a perfect 50 on his final dunk. In a dramatic finish, McClung leapt completely over Shaquille O'Neal—who was wearing McClung’s high school jersey—to edge out Jaylen Brown in the final round. Brown finished second after a tribute dunk to Terrence Clarke, while Jacob Toppin and Jaime Jaquez Jr. were eliminated in the first round despite impressive aerial displays.
