Mac McClung’s name is now etched in NBA history books as one of only five players to win back to back NBA Slam Dunk contests following an impressive showing in Saturday night’s event. Now the question becomes whether he’ll pursue a three-peat, an accomplishment only former NBA guard Nate Robinson has achieved.
When asked about the likelihood of a return after his second victory, McClung didn’t commit to it but left the possibility of pursuing a three-peat in 2025 on the table.
“I’d have to think about it. I’d never say never, but I’ll think about it,” McClung said Saturday after securing his second slam dunk contest trophy.
