Competing in NBA All-Star Weekend’s Slam Dunk Contest a Dream Come True for Cole Anthony

Posted Feb 20, 2022
From what he remembers, Cole Anthony was in the seventh grade the first time he dunked a basketball. It was a one-handed slam off a lob while messing around in the gym. Several months later, while playing in an AAU game as an eighth grader, he made his first in-game dunk. This, too, was a one-handed jam, and he recalls throwing it down with power. (Orlando Magic)
