A handful of active NBA coaches can still throw it down. Some, meanwhile, don't want to find out: "It's the landing gear you got to worry about."
Timberwolves guard Zach LaVine unleashed a variety of dunks from the free throw line to edge an equally impressive Aaron Gordon to win the NBA's slam dunk contest.
A sore shoulder caused Kobe Bryant to miss Saturday's 118-78 loss to the Thunder, but he said he doesn't believe it's serious and that he should be able to play Tuesday against the Nuggets.
Julius Erving doesn't think the slam dunk contest is going away any time soon, but he thinks mascots "messed it up."
If it were a regular-season game New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham would be digging into his wallet in coming days for his touchdown celebration Sunday night at the Pro Bowl.
Jimmy Graham stopped short Sunday of saying he regrets his penalty-drawing goalpost dunks from Friday night's preseason game, insisting he "would never do anything to hurt the team" in the regular season.
