[@CocaineRecords]

He jumped over somebody and put his arm in the rim and got 8’s lol

[@___Anakin.Skywalker]

don't forget he ate dem bread too 😅

[@BigZo22]

Don’t forget he pushed off the back…. Not jumped over … You new creative but that’s cheating …

[@lazzi2462]

The GCU guy was by far the best dunker, & all his dunks were great! When they mentioned how casual he was, I was thinking the same exact thing, like this guy did all his dunks so casually with ease, & they were some pretty difficult dunks. Lol

[@kurbin9miftari]

Dude did a cradle windmill from free throw line got 8/9 next guy does regular dunk from free throw gets all 9s lmao

[@user-qy1vs7jo7b]

Windmill is easier

[@sz3231]

It’s easier to a cradle windmill then a regular dunk?

[@justindiaz540]

I don’t know what everybody’s talking about. It was a way harder dunk doing the windmill from the free throw than the one they did after and got more points. I think Johnson should’ve at least advance to the next round we got robbed of seeing what he could do.

[@phenomfacemob1011]

​@justindiaz540 yea but thing is these dunks been done a million times so they will get low scores

[@kurbin9miftari]

@@phenomfacemob1011 go out there and do it lol

[@ridge9052]

Mcglothan deserved that! Not only he is the most creative but Time running out and still trying to do it for the show! That was the best dunk of the night! What a game winning dunk!

[@rontahenderson7614]

Took his time and finished through in the clutch !

[@LeGoatJames2025]

better than NBA dunk contest lol

[@flareon6472]

[@evanvansickle3779]

Always looks better when you just see the shortened version. But, anyway, the college one usually is better. Bigger pool of willing participants, longer competition.

[@bbal9678]

Not even close. NBA's is way better

[@ethanrygg6815]

Using his position as an athlete to spread the Word! ❤

[@JuliaMisiaki]

Jwill taking points away for a hand on the back, then later giving a 10 when the same thing happened. This is why I'll never like people jumping over others, they never do it clean.

[@TimTheHooper]

Until I’m in that contest! 😤

[@user-fu8bu2hx3j]

JWill is annoying af.

[@Mario_Tv23]

Exactly

[@raschidlandergolimlim328]

saw that too. Jwill not judging rigth hahaha

[@hypenortmann]

McGlothan WENT BRAZY!!!

[@evanvansickle3779]

From what I could tell, this wasn’t even close. Clear W for the GCU guy. Great dunks! Runner up guy did the exact same push off dunk twice in a row, which was already done better by the earlier guy who honey-dipped it.

Insane dunk in round 1 by Dakota Rivers from FGCU! Unfair he got penalized when nobody else did…

[@kingquestOZ]

That was entertaining, players showed out

[@handled99]

Bro won that and held up the bible! 😂😂 God is good.

In a post interview he said it was like a "fairy tale ending" which is accurate because god and the bible is fairy tale.

One dude windmilled from the free-throw line and got 8 and 9’s and the other guy did a simple statue of liberty dunk from the free-throw line and got all nines they wasn’t even trying to score theses dunks

[@anon-vn7se]

No it's not.

[@zoaxanthellae]

McGlothan's a mechanical engineering major, too. Impressive!

[@ryanp8159]

The theatrics were awesome. I think we typically devalue scores after missed dunks, but nailing a difficult dunk you've missed twice as time is about to expire actually added value to the dunk, IMO.

[@jonathancruz8449]

McGlothan!!!! That boy nice.

A couple guys got eliminated early that I would've liked to see more then one dunk out of. And a couple guys advanced that really weren't that impressive

10 across the board for a windmill but a 8 for jumping over someone elbow in the basket tripping

[@jsho31]

Pushing off the person you're jumping over should always have a point or 2 deducted

[@Chromixxxx]

@@jsho31 multiple guys did push offs after that dude got eliminated and didnt get any points deducted tripping he was the only one

[@Partyhat69]

Funny that the other dude jumped over three people and the hometown dude jumped over one and one of the competition
