A single nail could save this year nail contest of NBA in Indiana? The answer is… yes and it would come from the hands of a third party, Jacob Toppinwhich held for the final something we have never seen before.
He was the first to make the revelation David ZenonNBA player trainer, one day after the All Star Weekend event ended and predictably sparked the interest of fans of the sport in what Jacob Taupin was preparing.
Jacob Toppin had a dunk in his back pocket for the finals nobody has ever seen before. He would’ve crashed this app. Mac is a monster and congrats to him but man, the finals would have been epic with those two.

The video brought more negative reactions towards the judges and his Jaylen Brown. My brother obi, winner of the competition 2022averaged 95 points compared to the Boston Celtics All Star’s 96.4, with fans missing out on a far more impressive Finals than the one we ended up seeing in Indiana.
In addition to the nail that no one officially saw, Chuck Millan is also responsible for his first nail Mac McClung this year but also for one more from 2023 of the back-to-back winner of the competition.
I wanna acknowledge @TFBChuckTheBoss for Coordinating, Creating & Working w/these NBA Players for Years to Win These Dunk Contests! If Lebron Would have had his Help, he would have KILLED the Dunk Contest back in the Day…EASY!
