he NBA is preparing to take flight.
Its top aerial artists will converge on Chicago this weekend for the 2020 Slam Dunk Contest. The four-player field features a past champion (Dwight Howard), two former silver medalists (Aaron Gordon and Derrick Jones Jr.) and one high-flying newcomer (Pat Connaughton).
Considering the contest is being held in Michael Jordan's former hoops home, expectations should be astronomic for this always-thrilling event.
Here's a rundown of the latest odds and predictions for All-Star Saturday's headliner.
