I demand a 1-on-1 matchup immediately between Donovan Mitchell and Chicago Bulls rookie Lauri Markkanen for the slam dunk title. If jumping over a crouched Kevin Hart is good enough for the judges, then I’m sure Markkanen can do better in his sleep.
Before Saturday’s game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Markkanen showed off his dunking prowess and I’m all in on him being the next slam dunk champ.

Made it look easy, but of course we all know that wasn’t even close to his best.
That’s nothing.. wasn’t even warmed up 🙄🙄 https://t.co/av9zVnrpFb

Watch your back, Zach LaVine, Markkanen’s coming for that dunking crown.
