LeBron's A No-Go
Cavaliers' SF LeBron James will be watching this year's dunk contest just like the rest of us. LeBron is opting out of the dunk-a-thon during all-star weekend, but he will be competing in the skills challenge.

Kryptonite Returns
Knicks G Nate Robinson looks to repeat as the dunk champ and in doing so, become the contest's first-ever three-time winner. Robinson's competitors include the Bobcats SF Gerald Wallace and Lakers PG Shannon Brown. The fourth contestant will be the winner of the dunk-off during halftime of the rookie game between the Clippers' SG Eric Gordon and Toronto SG DeMar DeRozan. NBA All-Star weekend is February 12-14 in Arlington, Texas.
