2. Donovan Mitchell (Utah Jazz): Winner of the Slam Dunk Contest:

Mitchell dunks over 3 people, including Kevin Hart

The Slam Dunk contest this time was a throwback to the good old days, with all the 4 participants almost re-creating legendary dunks. The 4 participants were Victor Oladipo, Dennis Smith Jr., Larry Nance Jr. and Donovan Mitchell. Victor Oladipo messed up his first dunk but almost covered it up with a Black Panther dunk, bringing in some showmanship but was eliminated. Dennis Smith Jr. also had not had a clean first round but his creativity and amazing athleticism put him into the reckoning but was anyways eliminated.

Donovan Mitchell pulled out all the stops in his first season, dunking over Kevin Hart, his son and his sister for dunk #2 after an impressive first dunk, propelling him to the top spot and into the final round. Larry Nance gave him a tough fight, both in the first round as well as the final round, with his second dunk being very impressive, landing a perfect score. But Mitchell channelled his inner Vince Carter and won the dunk contest by just 1 point, dashing Nance's hopes of winning in front of his father.
