Nate Robinson, Rudy Gay and “Superman” himself Dwight Howard will be the three other contestant’s in this year’s slam-dunk competition. Nate Robinson and Dwight Howard are the two previous winners both going for their second title while Rudy Gay is out to seek redemption after last year’s loss.
UPDATE: J.R. Smith of the Denver Nuggets will be replacing an injured Rudy Gay to round up the Slam-Dunk lineup.
