So did you see the show former UCLA Bruin Zach LaVine put on at the Sprite Slam Dunk contest during the 2015 NBA All-Star Weekend in Brooklyn? If the answer is no, then let me ask you how it is living under a rock?
The Minnesota Timberwolves rookie had not only won the 2015 Slam Dunk contest, but finally brought some excitement back to that part of the All-Star weekend that has been quite drab in the last few years. I blame Michael Jordan for ruining it in the first place.
Well, if you have not seen the four dunks that won LaVine the title of 2015 Slam Dunk Champion, take a look below and prepare to be amazed!
