It did get a 50 :) So at least it was appreciated during the contest. I do agree, we pretty much have ignored this entire dunk contest when we think of good dunks.
The judges were drunk judging these... second dunk got a 50 when it should have been like a 45-46, meanwhile last dunk got a 48 and easily should've been a 50
Idk why everybody's hating on Donovan and this year's contest in general. Nance may have had the best dunk, but Mitchell was way more consistent overall. All of his slams went down clean and smooth unlike Larry's double tap and DSJ's 360 (which were still dope though). As for the contest, it definitely wasn't an all-time classic but all 4 guys put on a show and barely fucked up outside of Oladipo who shouldn't have been a part of it in the first place lol. Overall it was a fun year.
Yeah the contest looking back at it was not that bad. For me, i think it just looked bad and isn't my most favorite because the fans ruined it. The DSJ or Nance dunks got no hype from the crowd. The crowd ruined most of the weekend. The all star game was like crickets until last 5 minutes. This contest was not bad, hands down better than shit one last year and ones before 2015 and 2016. I would still take the Howard contests and 2011 in LA, but this one was solid if you watch the clips again. I really like Nance's dunks just baffling the crowd acted like snobby rich kids. Really disappointed in the atmosphere. But people really expect the contest to be this action movie every year like the Gordon and Lavine one. I mean I don't think people realize how hard it is to prepare and perform these dunks. I mean overall since 2015, 2015, 2016, and 2018 were alright. last 4 years they have been better than the shit stretch from 2012 to 2015.
@@hakoware101 seen Steph dunk a few times and quite easily actually.. plus he's only the best shooter of all time and the only player besides Jordan imo that is truly breathtaking to watch play the game. No disrespect to LeBron or Kobe they are great, but Steph is truly amazing and just blows your mind to see him performing his craft 🏀 😉
Snow Wolf Not true, this is pressure on Donovan of a thinking mindset. Watching his games, his dunks are straight up insane. Just facts. Especially since I live in Utah, the fans are much stronger then most teams. Donovan is on half of the crowds back in a game at the jazz stadium in Salt Lake City.
Larry Nance Jr's Dad won the first slam dunk contest in 1984. Which was based on the ABAs 1976 dunk contest. Larry Nance who was 6'10 dunked two balls one after the other for the first time.
was at my buddies house watching the dunk contest and saw this dude named donovan mitchell… i was like goddamn he can hoop. then he came to cleveland and i got to see him play in person… quite cool
they should open the dunk contest to everybody. The gap between pro dunkers and nba dunkers is getting ridicoulous. Imagine a dunkoff between guy dupuy and zach lavine where the honor of the nba is on the linfe. that would motivate nba stars to participate again

most underrated dunk contest in the last 5 years
📠
It always amazes me how athletic these players are! When they show the replays and you see how high they get up it’s unbelievable.
5:20 one of the most underrated dunks I've seen. That's some dexterity and power
Too true Man. I love this dunk, it’s low key brutal. Makes it look too easy as well. I always come back and check this one out every once in a while.

😂man that was gay asl
incredible dunker and one by far one of the most likable young stars in the league, I always hear he is a great dude off the court
Yes indeed!
Donovan Mitchell is a great dunker that second dunk he did was very nice 👍
He cradled it AND WINDMILLED it off a one hand alley opp! Bro that's crazy!!!!!!!
that first dunk was nasty😭
Whos here after he signed for cavaliers
Watching Mitchell try to do carters dunk just shows how much of a monster carter was
We don’t really take the time to appreciate how great you gotta be to win the dunk contest and still be an elite player in game. #GREATNESS
1:19 i like how he thought the girl was going to give him a high five. Definitely got self conscious
If 23-year-old Vince Carter joined the slam dunk contest this year, would he win? I think yes.
r u kidding even a 60yo carter will win againts that guy!
if a 41 year old vc joins he right now he would win@@fegmedic514

The dunk contest isn't the same, people getting 50s for some old shit tbh
Man I couldn't believe these scores myself... 50!? For what!?
Literally every type of dunk has been attempted. Nothing new can be made
Lordwin stop commenting like that
And back then people used to get 50s for simple ass dunks lmaoo stfu
Lordwin you can't say that again pal
I gotta be honest , Mitchell a different breed , much love from a Rockets fan 🔥🚀
It's a honor to watch that slam dunk contest live on tv
Remember when it was hard Getting 50 points...
No it's the dunk contest it's always been overrated.
Imagine being 6’1 and dunking like this 🤯
I had zero clue this man won this 😮
I’d be so mad if I was the guy that had bring out another dam basketball hoop
Everyone hatin cuz Mitchell's from utah, screw y'all, Utah's dope
U know what isn’t dope your 3 subs

At least I have subs
Thx, I am from Utah! Love the respect!

they got nothing to work with. blame the performers.
@@worthlessmutts9598 I'm not listening to a guy who hates dogs
It took him 3 minutes to get a dunk off... we don't need props... we need crisp execution
It's crazy how him and kobe were the same pick, traded by their original team and won the dunk contest in their rookie years. Coincidence?
SeanJunior TV zach lavine too though he wasn’t traded on draft night and then there’s also Devin booker who’s quite similar to them
SeanJunior TV no Kobe is better.
CLiNiC Larry nance a bum anyways what is he doing with cavs? Does he even have 20 points in all 8 playoff games played? Bahahahahahaha
SeanJunior TV it would be a coincidence if they cancelled the dunk contest in following years like kobes because how garbage it was
I think not
When I watch this I'm like "Damn, Vince Carter got too much sauce"
Look at Mitchell right next Nance and now he is part of "The Land" 4 years later.

Doing windmills the entire dunk contest is a cheatcode to win
Is there an unwritten rule that you dont do any of Kilganons dunks? Far more creative and refreshing.
The scorpion looks great.
The Vince Carter dunk difference so big is like denovan just successfully completed the dunk, but Vince successfully Perfected the dunk.
Its because donovan is a short guy
he’s like 5 inches shorter than vince
8:28 is the greatest of them all
One of 4th pure New Yorker That win Slam dunk champions
1:23 she left him hangin

AWESOME 45 !!! :) GOOD JOB BRO.
His dunks are much better in a game.
Donavon doesn't get real high on those dunks. Without those long arms he wouldn't be a good dunker
He can get eye level with the rim when wants too
