Description

With three-time champion Mac McClung absent from the field, the 2026 Slam Dunk Contest at the Intuit Dome is wide open for a new aerial king. The competition features a youthful lineup hungry to make a name for themselves: Carter Bryant (Spurs rookie), Jase Richardson (Magic rookie and son of 2-time champ Jason Richardson), Keshad Johnson (Heat sophomore), and Jaxson Hayes (Lakers veteran). Bryant enters as the betting favorite due to his 40-inch vertical, while Richardson carries the pressure of a legendary family legacy.

Result Description

Miami’s Keshad Johnson claimed the 2026 Slam Dunk title in a thrilling finale against Carter Bryant. Johnson secured the trophy with a total final-round score of 97.4, punctuated by a powerful one-handed windmill after jumping over rapper E-40 earlier in the night. Although Bryant earned the only perfect 50 of the evening for a spectacular between-the-legs windmill, he failed to convert his final attempt, settling for a 43.0. Jaxson Hayes and Jase Richardson were eliminated in the first round despite strong opening slams.
