Folks we have a new Slam Dunk Champion and he’s a familar face. New York Knicks guard Nate Robinson, who won the contest in 2006, won the contest again last night during the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest.
The scary thing about it is he won the contest because he used his opponent, the Orlando Magic’s Dwight Howard, as a prop.
Like he did in 2006 when he jumped over Spud Webb, Robinson this time jumped over Howard and dunked the ball in. After that Howard had no chance.
Howard did impress the crowd earlier in the night when he dunked on a 12 foot basket with ease.
Here are the highlights from Robinson and Howard during the dunk contest.
