6kDe 1986 à 2023, nous avons compilé pour vous toutes les participations des Knickerbockers au moment le plus fun, le plus spectaculaire des All Star Weekend : le NBA Slam Dunk Contest.
L’occasion de découvrir ou redécouvrir les champions Kenny Walker, Nate Robinson (3 fois, record all-time) et le dernier en date Obi Toppin.
Des champions mais aussi quelques autres voltigeurs oubliés…
A voir si en 2024 Jacob Toppin peut faire aussi bien que son grand frère et reprendre le titre de champion du dunk pour le ramener chez les Knicks. Petit frère n’a qu’un souhait : devenir grand…
