Mac McClung reacts to winning dunk contest: th-cam.com/video/jONh3sfmLnc/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Chaz, this is perfect! Fun night.
Jesus loves you and saves (John 3:16; John 14:6). He is the Way
Mac mcdunk right 👀
I may get censored on YT for saying this, but I would say that McClung is White Chocolate 2.0
How does he look like someone’s dad and someone’s kid at the same time.
@@bkearnaghan comparing him to Jason Williams is crazy
He said he was gonna put his school on the map when he was in high school and never forgot his dream. Wins with his high school jersey on, high school team mate and high school coach with him. Dude has my respect.
Hands down I agree !
Lol, Stop It
For 48hrs… I didn’t say that your idols did 😮
THIS WHITE BOY FROM THE SOUTH SAVED THE NBA SLAM DUNK CONTEST.
Oh he has the respect of some commenter on TH-cam, NOW it was all worthwhile
What’s more impressive is that he nailed all his dunks on the first try.
A lot of players rely on a bounce pass or props that they need to be absolutely perfect. It’s best to be in complete control of the ball.
@@adrianvasquez254 a glitch in the Matrix, "watch out Neo!"
@@adrianvasquez254 A lot of players rely on a bounce pass or props that they need to be absolutely perfect. It’s best to be in complete control of the ball.
His bounce is insane!
exactly
I love how at the beginning, people were a little hesitant to speak to him and wouldn't even give him high fives like the other contestants. Most likely because they weren't convinced. By the end, everyone surrounding him to congratulate the young man. I love it. Keep doing your thing sir 🙌
No it was because he was white
@@sethbrewer4931no it’s not that’s dumb as hell 😂 most people knew who he was and actually picked him to win
@jacolbysimpson4916 then why were they hesitant, he's not talking about most people he's talking about the other players DA
@@sethbrewer4931 let me put it in this way I’m black and I’ve always messed with mac I’m more surprised people don’t really know him… but to say it’s because he’s white is kinda jumping to assumptions because a lot of people legit didn’t know him
@@jacolbysimpson4916 yo I get what you saying, but just bc you black doesn’t mean other people don’t think that way. My brother and my other good friend are black and they literally say the reason why I don’t get picked up if people don’t know me or see me play on the court is bc I’m white complected. Then once they see I can hoop they’d tart to pick me up. I respect you for not judging since you darker toned, but sum others don’t gaf and it’s a sad reality. I ain’t even white I’m puerto rican but I’m lighter complected so I’m judged off of that. Been told that before too.
You can tell by his expression when getting the scores, he came to win this thing ... that's the real All-Star attitude that everyone should have in these events.
He knew this was his best shot to make his name known.
the NBA made the right call to include this guy in the dunk contest. epic performance
💯 if you know you know brilliant PR move by the NBA
Mac McClung! He’s legit
To the world he came out of nowhere...... He broke A.I.'s scoring record in Virginia. i hope the 76er's don't waste his talent
Facts
This will probably be the next dunk contest highlight to Vince Carter's.
The fact that he came out and nailed them on the first try is insane 😭 brought the dunk contest back
Correcto good.
i think he brought real participation back.
No people said Lavine and Gordon brought it back. It was only back when they were in it. Now if Mac stays in it sure, it’s good
@@doughenry4172yea but after tht it was shit again until last year
His second dunk was the best and it got a 49 from Lisa smh
2023 contest way better than 2024
facts
not hard
Man, this dude was a beast, been watching his highlights since his highschool days and seeing him right now winning a dunk contest without a single mistake, all nailed on first try.
No fails. No props. No gimmicks. Just straight up great dunks.
Like YOU know what a great dunk is! LMAO!
Using humans as props and a high school jersey
@@brandondetroitfanmichaels4325 oh for f sake you know what he means though. The props over the past 5-10yrs got extremely silly and dumb. Throwing on. HS jersey barely registers
@@solidsnake7167 You just happy a white guy won. We get it.
Men are props. And see through basketball, a 50 score in an envelope, a white guy with hops, is everything you said they did not include. The fentanyl is string with you.
He did all his dunks on the 1st attempt! That made his dunks even more special.🎉
Exactly
Subtle but absolutely correct.
That is fact!! You couldn't be more right.
He did?! Holy shit that's next level.
Lisa Leslie messed the scoring up. SMH. He would have been perfect.
Those dunks where so difficult, bro really brought the dunk contest back to life 💰
I love how excited even the other players were by his dunks. Finally had to come see what the big deal was, honestly expected him to be quite a bit taller.
That "hesidunk" is just insane. Who da hell double pumps a reverse double handed dunk. Respect to this man.
Over someone
@@kevinkane1405 Exactly..It in and of itself is impressive. Doing it while jumping over someone is some superhero type shit
Aaron Gordon did… but he’s 6’10” and it wasn’t over a guy
Kobe did in-game, but it’s not as high I think.
Was a popular dunk back in the early 90s...but even then it's not like there were more than a handful of PGs in league doing it.
Got a hug from Dominique, got handed the trophy from The Dr, what a great moment for Mac 🤘🏻
Could you imagine?
Goes to show how played out the racism narrative is.
He wasn't even alive when those legends played! As if he's even watched their highlight reels. Youth these days can't even respect their teachers and elders, an all time low for society
Half a year later these dunks are even better... unreal, what a show 💪🏻
Bruh killed it. Point blanked every attempt.💯💯💯
This years dunk contest DID NOT disappoint. Congrats to Mac McClung for saving the NBA's dunk competition from being garbage
Did not disappoint? This exceeded expectations from the several previous dunk contests. Mac went crazy
How do u know it won't be shit next year ?
@@slxyerxo because he will participate again
@@foreverFreak hopefully
i hope gordon participates again one last time
No fluff, just pure talent and creativity. This is what dunk contest should be about. Thank you, Mac McClung.
no fluff… dude has special inserts in his shoe!!! i been saying this for months with alot of these news guys getting so high lately… maybe they dont rock em every night but they def rocking them… wonder if it will get to the point the nba will start searching ppls shoes
@@username4755 ? Even if he does, it doesn’t change the fact that the dunks were crazy
@@drankFoD more air more time to do crazy stuff
@@username4755 bro, look at his HS highlights, he’s been dunking that high for years now. Ain’t no fluff then
@@username4755 u must not know who Mac is
He went into flow state at the absolute most clutch time. Excellent
Vince will be my all time favorite. Gordon, Levine took things to another planet. Mac just went out an dominated.. I hope he has a long career in the NBA. He's got skills. Worked for years to improve his skills and prove he's more than just hops. Good stuff Mac!
He is 24 years old, and has appeared in a total of 4 games. He is a two in a one's body.
You really gotta see his dunks in slow motion to fully appreciate what he's doing.
Insane vertical and creativity.
His vertical is because he pushed off.
@@Marcus-kc9wc stop hating
@@Marcus-kc9wc he clearly can jump very high even without pushoffs. 1st and last dunks werent pushoffs
@@Marcus-kc9wc 🤡
What a dummy push off?? 🙄 the white dude can jump and those dunks he made was awesome!!
Singlehandedly saved the dunk contest!
Dude deserves to be upgraded to a vet min😂😂
Damn right someone finally made the dunk contest interesting
I agreed 100%
I agree 100%
The NBA did a huge favor to itself by letting this BIG show handle this year's contest.
Those are man's jams
Even more than his athletic ability, technical skills and work ethic . . . he has ice water running through his veins. This is a guy not afraid to be on the spot at the end of a game. A clutch mindset. That in and of itself is worth a lot, especially if you have the ability to back it up.
Was so damn happy for him. Found him on TH-cam as a kid and to see him become a star on the national stage was awesome.
Mac's got a 43.5 inch vertical. The 7th highest recorded in NBA combine history. Hard work pays off. Congratulations to this young man!
Dam and they say white man can’t jump
@@dalordswill1300 he's black when it comes to basketball 🏀🏀🏀
hahaha, "hard work pays off". I'm certain he worked his ass off, but no amount of hard work provides a mere mortal with a 43" vertical! there's no work out regime for that.
@@downeybill it’s called box jumps
@@snapkrr it’s called juiced jumps.
If you followed this guy since high school…you already knew he was going to win.
I grew up about 15 or 20 minutes from gate city, saw him play a few high school games in person, he's nuts.
I said this! I followed him since kindergarten
👍
I’ve followed him since the moment he was born
I've followed his parents since their marriage
Macclung deserves a roster spot somewhere. He has been the top player in the g-league for two years now. He will help somebody out with his energy and pace.
Dude rocked that whole building that night. What a show he put on
This kid really came out and put on a show. For all those who don't watch basketball. He had a long journey and bought the dunk contest back for real. Much respect. That kid is nicer than what I thought.
He's a beast. If you didn't know he was nice before this go watch his mixtapes. The kid is a problem. He just needs the right team to trust him enough to fit him into a rotation with enough play time.
Just goes to show you to never give up on your dreams. Mac's college career wasn't pretty but he went to the G League to improve his game and decided to participate in the dunk contest. He showed the world what he can do
@@DeadlyBeast205 Check those pumps in the air too.
This man stay focused and gave us two shows in last year's Lakers game and this contest.
long journey?
What’s sad is Ben Simmons is still in the league
Never give up. This kid fought his way into the NBA and no matter how many people told him know what he wasn’t good enough, he just won the slam dunk contest.
He not in the nba lls
He can be casted "White Men Can't Jump sequel" ⛹️🏀
Go win a championship 🤣🙈
The hate real lol
@rad bariffe isn't it the NBA all star dunk contest 🤣 Logan Paul will be in it next have you seen his leaping ability 🤣 I want to see a dunk that's Actually a legitimate Dunk not a walk a step hop leap then dunk when is picking up the bal running with it without a bounce a legitimate dunk
Never thought this would be the man to bring excitement back to the dunk contest phenomenal skills 😳🔥💯
For his height, his dunks were mixed with creativity and difficulty! Aaron was full of creativity, Zach was full of difficulty. Mac both have it!
His last dunk was dunked 540 but jumped and landed a 720 without falling on the floor. Amazing!
I think in snowboarding they call it something like "late 720"
huh? making up stuff are we?
This is a legit 360. Victor Oladipo did this exact dunk in the dunk contest from the baseline and they all called it a full 360.
@@Nestle245 What! Vince carters 360 windmill is a 180 windmill now ? Maclung is a legit 540 with a scoop pump, it’s almost a 720 if he didn’t stuff it in reverse
@@Nestle245 it actually is a 540 yes I understand that he started his spin on the ground but the spin on the ground would make it a 720 but because he started on the ground that doesn't count if you look where he started and where he ended it was 100% of 540
Mad praise goes to Mac McClung. He did his thing. He got put in the spotlight today and he put on for the state of VA. Well-deserved
I don't think the NBA likes when a 6'2" white guy wins the slam dunk contest.
@@climbergreg5011 Brent Barry won it and they didn’t say anything but Mac just blew everyone out of the water. It’ll be a crime if he doesn’t get any playing time
@@TheQuietStorm08 ... they didn't say anything because Brent Barry is white. Aaron Gordon and Zach LaVine are only half white... so the NBA was ok with them putting on a great dunk show.
Best slam dunk win in my life time. He saved this contest, for this year at least
I saw this guy in high school and was impressed but said he would just ride the bench at Georgetown. He ended up transferring and getting some playing time. He still has a lot against him with height and strength. He has the intangible like Letrel Spreewell as a bench player that can come in and fire up a team and crowd. That’s something that make a big difference.
I won't lie, this brought me to tears. I have been watching this kid from high school. He just keeps getting cut by sorry teams and it bothered me. But you know what sometimes we need to be overlooked to perform with a chip on our shoulder. Don't think for a minute he forgot about all those teams who released him. That kind of performance is not normal. He clearly had something to prove and he did just that . Let them keep doubting you mac and you keep rising to the occasion. Congrats man
Bro he won a dunk contest . Not the Finals
@@problemsnearyou8899 you wouldn't be saying that if you actually tried for the NBA
@@problemsnearyou8899well it was the Dunk contest not the finals hater and winning the Dunk contest can put a player on the NBA map if you had any clue you would know that
@@robertsmith3872 no one cares bout the dunk contest . That’s never gotten a player paid
@@InotziaCityArt I’m saying it cause OP said he was in tears . That’s over dramatic . Lol
Been watching him on TH-cam for years, this made me so happy. When they show the replay after his first dunk and the crowd goes crazy, I get chills.
So you mean this man been grinding for long time?
@@itstwinshi2179 how do u think he can dunk ? Magic ?
imagine how I felt when the warriors released em 😭
Bro is legend status dunker lol
dont cry over it like some of these other cucks
Amazing leap, amazing choreography, amazing execution, amazing young man!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations back to back champion well deserved 💪🏻🔥
The expressions from players, stars and fans tell what great dunks Mac did. The fact he made all his dunks the first time while finishing it crisp was legendary. Congrats Mac. Wishing you success in sustaining an NBA career an all around baller and not just known for winning the dunk contest
Those of us who are ballislife addicts knew he was winning when we heard he was even doing the dunk contest lol! This dude was cold like this in HS!!!!
Real talk
You said that right, as soon as I heard he was in the dunk contest I knew he was going to win.
Remember when dude did a reverse eastbay in a game in HS?
@@raymondsmith2040 nasty
Facts
He handled the pressure like a seasoned veteran.
This kid needs a full time contract ,he could take a team to the play-offs, just with his attitude under pressure.
A real general in the making.
That 540 dunk was with the *reverse windmill* they never mentioned that 😭
Big Mac MCCLUNG and Dr.J posing with a slam dunk trophy….Dr.King dreamt of times like this.
🤣🤣 definitely
😂😂😂 real shit
That’s the bar? You have extremely low expectations
@@fvelazquez659 😅
@@fvelazquez659 bruhhhhh 🤦🏾♂️
The crazy part was the confidence. Hit each dunk on the 1st try. Not only hit them but nailed them.
Those were simple dunks that my 5 year old could execute.
@@charlesdixon552 yeah anyone can execute em on a baby net
I'm actually amazed. A lot of dunkers finally get on that NBA stage and can't perform the dunks they've done in practice.
@@charlesdixon552 they show me a 360 dunk
@Charles Dixon you prob can even do a 360 dunk on a baby hoop
Been watching the contest since the 80's. This was one of the best we've seen. Too bad the rest of the field were yawn but McClung is a legend now.
You GOTTA Love the crowd’s reaction on the replays 🔥🔥🔥🔥😅😅💯
This is one of the most impressive dunk contest performances ever considering each dunk was perfectly executed on first attempt
He said one of but yeah it is why are u acting like that’s cap. There’s on a few in recent memory in the same category.
Um did you not see the 2016 dunk contest?
Aaron gordon and Zach Lavine in 2016: Am I a joke to u?
damn these people really don’t understand that “one of” is different from “the”
I agree. While I am one of the few that understood your point when you said "ONE OF", I will say the fact that he nailed dunks that were the level of difficulty on the first try made it that much more impressive. Also, the fact that he is 6'2", and looks like he would be more at home in a surf competition, than a dunk contest, makes it even more impressive
The kids is also very humble giving a lot of credit to his friends who helped him came up with 8 dunks prepared. Also he's giving G-league a lot of thanks for giving him this chance.
Jonathan Majors...this didnt age well for him 😂😂😂
or man mcclung
This kid absolutely blew my mind with an array of dunks that not even the stars of the league can do! Just mind blowing🤯
Plus this kid is real real humble.
Mac McClung has unbelievable work ethic. Been rooting for him since High School.
Tragedy no team will give him a real chance to shine. Dude has a huge ceiling if given the opportunity. Sad
@@johnrx15 I’ve always liked the guy but I don’t think it’s that, he’s like a lot of borderline guys who are too good for G-League but not good enough for regular NBA rotation minutes in that he has deficiencies (in his case defense, size, lack of playmaking for his position) and he isn’t a good enough scorer or shooter for that not too matter. He’s still young though so that could very well change or already have changed. Hard working guys like him usually do get better so hopefully this is his time
@@johnrx15 Really disappointed when the Lakers let him go. He could have been our Shannon brown off the bench.
@@johnrx15 Golden state drafted him. Why did they let him go?

Brilliant!! great dunks. this kid has rescued the dunk contest single handed!
That last dunk is beautiful, so clean, quick perfect form. Completely dominated the contest - now we just need one more dunk master and we’ll have a great contest next year
Mac's a player not afraid to fail. He was bound to succeed at this.
he is not afraid to be perfect too
He'll be unemployed next week! LMAO!
@@charlesdixon552 still a dunk contest champ, what about u
He signed a shoe deal so there’s that.
@@charlesdixon552 He earned $100k paycheck for that dunk contest. How much did you earn?
Bro carried the dunk contest & didn’t disappoint. Congrats to Mac
The only thing more violent than his dunks was Jonathan Majors courtside.
I've watched this many times--so awesome. Kenny Smith as one of the commentators is SO FUNNY and entertaining. Just wonderful all the way around.
I’ve heard his name, but I don’t even know this kid and I got tears. You can tell with the effort is genuine. It’s almost like I can see the underdog struggle in his eyes!
He's my little cousin and grew up in the same area I did. He's a determined little fuck, and balling out of a place as beat down as Gate City to get to this point is a feat in and of itself.
I love the crowds reaction during the replays when they realized he tapped the backboard. Epic stuff.
Thats my favorite part
I think it happened twice on that dunk. Like half the crowd saw it on the first replay and the rest on the second
@@user-em4wh5ji3w yes exactly. Haha great reaction
Replay matters
The best part was the crowd and announcers slowly going from doubtful to absolutely loving him
Didn't watch the All Star Weekend but when I heard that Mac was in the dunk contest, I HAD too see!!!!!

@@donaldtaylor6184this kids talented asf. You obv don’t know basketball if you really believe he isn’t. Did you not watch the dunk contest ? He’s 6’2 jumping as high if not higher then dudes 6’5-6’9! He broke Allen Iverson and JJ Reddick’s high school all time scoring record! The kid has handles, a shot, has worked on his defense like crazy. He deserves a shot in the NBA and the Sixers would be stupid not to give it to him. If not them, one of the bottom dwellers of the NBA need to. With the right opportunity he could be an all star.
The commentary is hilarious. 😂😂
He’s avg 24 ppg, 7 ast and 5 rbs a game this year in the G-League…wish one of these bad teams would give him a shot just to see if he could play consistently in the league

Yeh it was gettin so watered down with 3-4 attempts. That was MAGICAL
True, never even picked up on that but yes all in one take. That's incredible. Super talented with unrealistic verticals.
Makes the dunk so much better
Great all around baller and insane dunker! Congrats Mac McClung!
Good for him. His passion for the sport is awesome.
I’m glad he’s finally getting the recognition he deserves, been watching him since he was in HS, he’s been a dog
Me too!

Also gave us a great moment of Shaq being in awe again in the contest!
Absolutely. If he wasn't should have been a crime.
The white man deseves everything
He can really play, don't know why he was in the G league?!
He'll be unemployed next week. I see a career flipping burgers for this kid.
The dunks were full of creativity. That's what we need in the dunk contest. In recent years, only him and Aaron Gordon were doing something new. What matters the most was they did those dunks with only one try and did it effortlessly
Aaron Gordon was robbed.
@@conradoferrer9685 twice man
What did this man show new?
All copied dunks , like the last dunk, Oladipo did that dunk once
确实

Lol i can't see hes nervous lol u blind dude check CEO now
Nervous when the guy did not kiss a single dunk lol
Everybody who grew up on Ballislife knew he was boutta win this 😂
What's amazing is that he makes these dunks look easy.. especially the last one
Remember the high school coach that said he would ride the bench at Georgetown? He gives a great haircut.
He has so much control in the air. Makes all his dunks look even better
exactly this!
Gotta love it!! The support everyone gave Mac was dope. Shattered the stereotypes that night
I'm here because he's defending his champion. Gonna be great again
The best part is all the NBA all stars lined up filming his dunks all excited. Probably wondering sho the f*ck he was too. Undrafted g-leauger wins the slam dunk contest. Unreal performance
Thank God the nba still have pure dunkers for an all star event. They're getting rare in the league nowadays. Thanks Mac and congratulations.
OMG will you non basketball players stop posting this nonsense?
I love when the little guys get an opportunity and don’t disappoint! He was great and I was loving every minute of the dunk contest! At 6’2”, his head was near the rim! Incredible!!
Facts!! At 6'2" and still getting your head to the rim, that means you're jumping nearly 3'10" off the ground (which is equivalent to 46"). He's among the greatest leapers in the league, doing acrobatic and technically difficult dunks, and STILL yamming it with authority.
A lot of other people's dunks get soft when they get more technical, so I'm grateful to witness Mac displaying some much needed ferociousness.
@@3rdCoastAlliance 6’2 is probably what they listed him to give him a better opportunity to play professional ball, they do that to everyone under 6’5. Dude is 6’1 and 1/4 barefoot this makes this even more impressive. His wingspan is 6’2 which is slightly above average for his height, shit I’m 5’9 and my wingspan is longer than his which again that all makes it more impressive. He’s very athletic and explosive.
But his height is one of factors he’s not in the nba, sure there’s have been shorter players but they don’t rely solely and explosivenesses and athleticism they play very fundamentally sound basketball their BB IQ is off the charts, they know how to distribute the ball and how to make plays. Mac has built his game on his crazy athleticism and speed that fades away with time and makes you more prone to injuries as well hence why they overlook him.
I like the dude a lot he’s legit, seems very humble and he’s a hard worker I hope he can figure out what he needs adjust to play at the next level.
@@ShinigamiUchihax2 Thing is, he also has those skills that you mentioned like passing, shooting, etc. Sure he may need to continue to work on them, but he came a long way. I really hope the 76ers give him minutes!
Dominique Wilkins was great with his scoring. No drama or stalling - just very clear with each dunk - "That's a 50!"
Landed each dunk on his first try, that’s what I’m taking about. Every 5 years we’re due for some memorable dunks…
And the fact that he's considered "short" by NBA standards makes it all the more impressive 🥇
Not only is he short, he’s melanin deficient.
somehow looks short though
Big men have a harder time in the dunk contest. It's all about visuals.
@wisdomfromtheheart1317 he's only 6 foot 2. Average height in the NBA is around 6 foo 7- 6 foot 8. This is insanely impressive.
Spud Webb was 5”7 when he won. That’s insane
Best dunk contest I’ve seen in recent years.
I hope he wins tonight! Edit: And he did! 🤩🥳
Man remember when players cared about this and wanted to be in it and weren't against it out of a fear of public failure and getting sht online?
Yeah I remember.
Jaylen Brown's failure this past weekend will almost guarantee no more ALL NBA dudes will be competing. He got shit on all over the internet for his failed Dee Brown dunk.
