Michael Jordan 1987 Dunk Contest Anniversary (Video)
Posted Feb 11, 2013
Whether or not LeBron James ever actually participates, the NBA's annual slam dunk contest just isn't what it used to be. In honor of the contest's glory days, we'd like to recognize the 26-year anniversary of Michael Jordan's first dunk crown. Having finished second in 1985 to Dominique Wilkins, Jordan made his second dunk contest appearance in 1987 when All-Star weekend took place in Seattle.
