Mac McClung is that dude, and it’s time we all start acting like it.
I’m sorry, basketball fans. The Dunk Contest has primarily been a snooze fest for several years. The only thing that has made it worth watching is waiting to see what sorcery Mac McClung pulled out.
Of course, this year, he did not disappoint.
My man pulled out a whole car mid-contest as a tribute to Blake Griffin. (He cleared that thing like he practiced the dunk in his sleep!) It was totally glorious and added to Mac’s fantastic night, which included more dunks with wild props like a hoverboard and a second basketball.
Here are 10 Mac McClung photos from his Dunk Contest three-peat:
