Another first for The Basketball Movement Invitational - an official dunk contest takes place tonight!
What goes up will come down strong as we kick off The Basketball Movement 2020 in epic fashion tonight with our first official Slam Dunk Contest. We always have high fliers and we let them strut their stuff a bit last year. This time around, there will be an official contest to highlight one of the game’s most exciting aspects.
Names such as Tyrese Hunter, Jonathan Dunn, Trevon Brazil, Logan Applegate, and Jeffery Brazziel are a few we expect to see taking flight. We suspect a few more may throw their hat in the ring as well.
The format will be laid out for participants tonight. There will be a panel of judges that will include a special guest judge - Indiana Pacers Forward, Alize Johnson.
Expect all the action to be blasted on our Instagram first, but do not neglect our Twitter as there will also be special shoutouts and notes from not only the contest but all of the action all weekend. The games are where the real fireworks happen, but the Dunk Contest and Three-Point Contest will kick things off in a more explosive style than ever before.
We are pumped to see what these special athletes come up with. Planned slams or mid-air creativity - not many things in sports can compete with witnessing a graceful or powerful slam.
Stay tuned for all the action!
