Who will be the 30th NBA Slam Dunk winner (don’t forget those damn lockout years) and what sneakers will they be wearing? Will Victor Oladipo bring the ‘chip back to Jordan Brand for their 30th anniversary? Our bet is on Zach Lavine in something fresh from the Swoosh. Regardless of who wins the folks at Beaverton will be happy as no other sneaker brand is represented in the 2015 NBA Dunk Contest. Although they have dominated for most of the Slam Dunk history there have been plenty of brands that have been represented. From the first few with Converse, Brooks, and Pony, Reebok and And1 had a nice run as well. Check out the 29 Dunk Champions kicks and highlights and look for #30 during tonight’s festivities.
