    Can’t imagine he has an impressive bag of tricks, but in an era where players are afraid to try……good for him!

    Who’s taking McClung down? It’s insane a 6’2” white dude has run the board 3 years in a row with crazy impressive dunks. He’ll probably deserve to win it again if he doesn’t miss but they’ll have to give it to someone else. Don’t think it would be a 7 footer.

    Guess they finally asked Mac to no longer compete, was too embarrassing? Especially by a G-Leaguer? I just searched and he was kind of vague about what the reasons were. Maybe that wasn't it. Also said something about being known only as a dunker rather than as a player, and didn't know if he had new dunks enough to dominate again. But also said he would be "releasing" the new dunks they came up with "after" the competition.

    he is soooo not Slovenian, but I suppose if you have to do stuff like that to go to the Olympics, you consider it.

    "If you don't jump, you're not Slovenian".

    If there's one thing Jax can do... is jump. Therefore, he's Slovenian. And, interestingly enough, he's exactly the player Slovenia needs.

    If completed on time, Hayes would be eligible to play for Slovenia in the upcoming FIBA World Cup qualification windows in July and August..
    but Luka will be resting after long playoffs and potential finals
    go figure

    Impressive stretch in the 1st, 4 dunks in 2 minutes (3 coming off dimes from his fellow Slovenian)

    We’re maximizing what he’s best at. Too bad we aren’t doing it with the entire roster and developing our young talent at the same time
