2025 NBA Slam Dunk Contest Field Set: Mac McClung and Matas Buzelis Lead the Way

The 2025 NBA Slam Dunk field is set. 

And Wesley Snipes was wrong…white men can jump!

The favorites this year at BetOnline.ag are two-time champion Mac McClung and Bulls rookie Matas Buzelis. 

It’s not a pretty field filled with household names as evidenced by these scoring averages (McClung 0.0, Buzelis 4.9, Jackson 3.6 and Castle 11.7), but it should make for a good dunk contest.

McClung is aiming to become the second ever three-time dunk champ (Nate Robinson) and the first to contestant ever take home three consecutive titles.

These players are the only to have won back-to-back dunk contests: Michael Jordan (1987-88), Jason Richardson (2002- 03), Nate Robinson (2009-10) and Zach LaVine (2016-17).

I think if LeBron participated in the dunk contest at age 40, it would be the highest rated contest since the Jordan/Dominique battles! Oh well.
