On February 20, Beijing time, with the end of a lackluster dunk contest, Knicks player Topin won the championship with a total of 92 points in the two rounds of the final, and he was crowned the king of new dunks. As a result, the Knicks players have won the dunk king 5 times, ranking first in NBA history, of which the little potato Nate Robinson won the championship 3 times.
This year's dunk contest did not have big-name players to participate, and the high-hope Rockets Green pulled his crotch with the first dunk, and then was eliminated in the mediocre preliminaries. As for the final, even if Topping successfully won the championship, Yixue was ashamed of losing the championship last time, but it was not too brilliant performance, and this year's dunk contest did not have a 50-point dunk.
However, after successfully winning the dunk contest championship, Toppin became the fifth time in the history of the Knicks that a player won the dunk king, becoming the team with the most dunk kings in the NBA.
Knicks history 5 dunk kings, in order:
Kenny Walker in 1989
2006 Nate Robinson
2009 Nate Robinson
2010 Nate Robinson
Topping in 2022
Among them, the 1.75-meter small potato Nate Robinson won the dunk king three times, which is undoubtedly a very inspirational legend, especially after defeating another dunk king, Howard.
However, the famous Adam Spolane is still complaining about the Knicks, "Since 1973, the Knicks have not won the NBA championship, but their players have won the dunk king five times, so the past 50 years have not been completely wasted." ”
