Aaron Gordon Won't Return To Dunk Contest
5 years agoOrlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon confirmed that he is officially done with the dunk contest going forward. It is hard to blame him after what happened to him this year. Derrick Jones pulled off a narrow upset over Gordon after former NBA star Dwayne Wade gave Gordon a nine out of ten. Gordon recently released a 'diss track' aimed at Wade who allegedly rigged the contest, so Jones could win. Possibly Wade wanted a Heat player to take home the trophy, but who knows. After the break Gordon averaged 15.4 points, 9.1 rebounds, 6.8 assists, 1.3 steals, 1.3 blocks. Maybe losing the dunk contest was a good thing for him, but it doesn't sound like he'll be back again anytime soon.
