Mac McClung: Takes home another dunk title
McClung took home the 2024 AT&T Slam Dunk Contest title Saturday, defeating the Celtics' Jaylen Brown in the final round.
McClung became the fifth back-to-back winner in the dunk contest's 42-year history, joining Michael Jordan (1987 and 1988), Jason Richardson (2002 and 2003), Nate Robinson (2009 and 2010) and Zach LaVine (2015 and 2016). Of the four competitors in Saturday's contest, McClung delivered the only 50-point dunk of the night, which came when he jumped over 7-foot-1 NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal, who hoisted a ball above his head that McClung grabbed in midair and slammed home for a reverse dunk. McClung, who has spent the entire season in the G League with the Osceola Magic, implied after Saturday's victory that he'll think about competing again in 2025 with the hope of becoming the first player to win the contest in three consecutive years.

Mac McClung: Sent to waivers
McClung was waived by the Magic on Saturday, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.
McClung will likely end up with Orlando's G League affiliate, the Osceola Magic, following Saturday's move. He was unable to make his case to remain on the NBA roster to begin the 2023-24 campaign after scoring only seven points and adding 15 boards and five assists over three preseason matchups.

Magic's Mac McClung: Agrees to deal with Orlando
McClung and the Magic agreed to a partially guaranteed deal Tuesday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
The 2023 NBA Slam Dunk Contest champion went undrafted out of Texas Tech in 2021 and has appeared in just four NBA contests over the last two years. However, the 6-foot-2 guard has been a stellar contributor at the G League level, averaging 20.6 points, 6.1 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 1.1 steals while playing for three different affiliates -- Delaware Blue Coats (31 games), South Bay Lakers (26) and Windy City Bulls (one) -- over the last two years. In the likely event that McClung doesn't make Orlando's Opening Night roster, the Magic will retain his G League rights for the 2023-24 campaign.

76ers' Mac McClung: Leads teams in points and assists
McClung recorded 30 points (8-18 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight assists and four rebounds in 40 minutes during Thursday's 114-110 win over Rio Grande.
McClung notched team highs in points and assists during the Blue Coats' championship win. Across 53 G League appearances, the 24-year-old averaged 19.4 points, 5.3 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 0.9 steals in 28.2 minutes per game. He was recalled to the NBA club following the Blue Coats' win, but he's not expected to feature in Philadelphia's postseason rotation.

76ers' Mac McClung: Ends on strong note
McClung posted 20 points (8-17 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-3 FT), nine rebounds and nine assists in 33 minutes during Sunday's 134-105 win over Brooklyn.
McClung ended his regular season with easily the best game of his career. Like many teams, the 76ers went with their fringe players on the final day, affording McClung an opportunity to shine. He didn't disappoint, falling just short of his first career triple-double. His long-term future remains uncertain, so managers should just enjoy this for what it was.
