3sus. Period. Might need to put some chatter on this.

Kidnap Travis Ford and tie him up at center court and make him watch.

In the final round, Thomas beats Naz by one more bucket. Then, just as he's about to be declared the winner, Fred steps in and challenges him. Fred makes every shot.

In the dunk contest, my money is on Kourtlin Jackson. If you saw the dunk contest at Cap City League this summer, you know how good he is.

Kourtlin Jackson was good, but I bet BDJ is a better dunker.

I was working that night so I didn't get to go. Did Georges participate in this? I saw highlights but can't remember who all shot.

He did not, he was at the Lebron Skills academy that night. Should be interesting to see how he does as well!

It wasn't better than BDJ's baseline one-hand reverse jam on his NBA highlights clip. I pick BDJ in the dunk contest.

Hallice Cooke needs to be on this list! I wouldn't imagine he won't be able to perform. I know Jameel is doing the dunk contest even though he isn't eligible yet. Dude barely even touches the net when he shoots.

Is there even enough time to include all the shooters?

Dumb question but is the mayor actually shooting in the 3pt contest? Maybe I missed that part of the announcement?

Just a gut feeling or what? I can't imagine it's "not even close" with all the shooters we have. These contests don't always directly relate to in-game percentages.

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but this must be why Matt Thomas is 'IceMan'/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2vUfqT1ZN0

I really believe were going to see THIS Matt Thomas playing this year.

Wow, very impressive! I was almost surprised some of those makes touched iron. I'm hoping that Matt is able to take as big of a step from his freshman year to his sophomore year that Naz was able to.

I went with Custer, just so his hype train gets going before the season begins.
