SportsLine expert Mike Barner just revealed his NBA picks and All-Star Weekend predictions for Saturday's NBA dunk contest as Mac McClung looks to win his third in a row

The high-flying guard is an incredible athlete and will take home the crown once again in San Francisco. While his skills haven't led to consistent playing time in the NBA, McClung is suited very well for this competition. With a win, he would tie Nate Robinson for the most Slam Dunk titles in history.

There is a noticeable lack of star talent in the 2025 NBA Slam Dunk Contest. While there are some high-flyers in the field, including back-to-back reigning dunk contest champion Mac McClung as well as Andre Jackson Jr. and rookies Stephon Castle and Matas Buzelis, the lack of a big name in the pool is a bit disappointing—albeit not too surprising.
