the first dunk he moved the people closer to the hoop than he normally does. that double pump, was suppose to go between the legs and believe it or not he has a 720
"Nobody knows your name, make them remember your name" - Shaq 2023 that line probably added more confidence in Mac. I mean, it's from SHAQ and to think that even Mac was out of earshot, he's still rooting for him. DZANG. Congrats Mac!
This is actually such a wholesome quality content. Shaq is just too much of a fun and charismatic guy that you can just love him. Plus the courtside view of the dunks and the live reactions. That's really dope
He's like the cool but wise uncle to all the youngsters now lol It was fun growing up watching him in his prime, and now getting to see the media personality side of him too.
He's my favorite current or former athlete. I wasn't even a Shaq fan when he was playing, but man did I come to appreciate him. It's always a good time when he's around
This was the quintessential epitome of a "feel-good story". It's just like something out of a fun Hollywood script. Congratulations to that young man and continued success
It’s cool Shaq told him to make a name for himself in this moment because I had no idea who he was until he blew up on social media for this performance.
I am shocked no one knew who this guy was I mean his high school mixtape is straight 🔥College did the same thing. He didn't get drafted. He saw is a golden opportunity and stole the show. now he is going to shine.
It's good casuals are finally giving him recognition. Been seeing him in the G league for a while and high school too. Dude is very good all around player. Crazy why teams weren't giving him a chance.
@@Its_Cutta His dream is to make it in the NBA. He has turned down millions to play overseas so that he can chase that dream and there is no alternative that is going to satisfy that dream other than the NBA. Money is not his goal.
Nah he's played with Mac too, in the Iverson classic back in highschool. He's for sure seen him with his own too eyes. Mac was on the lakers g leauge last year too.
I miss watching Vince Carter back in the day and Tracy McGrady was also fun to watch. And of course in recent, Aaron Gordon. But this kid was also a blast to watch, at only 6 foot 2 was incredible.
When he started stacking people to jump over, I said "he's not going to try to jump over them, he won't make it " and then he proved me wrong. This was the best dunk contest I've seen in a while. Great job having him in this
I am from the same part of Virginia as Mac and I will say he absolutely destroyed us in highschool. We were a good team at Ridgeview, but he himself destroyed us.
To me this is what Black History Month is about. It’s about our culture and respecting anyone with the grind and grit it takes to come up. This made my Black History Month!
you know whats crazy about mcclung dunks? Both him and Vince Carter 2nd dunks were given a 49 by one person, the rest of them were scored 50. Both of the judge's reason why its a 49 said because the first dunk was too high of a bar
Imagine a white country singer saying “ wow that black boy swimming faster then then the white swimmers” can u say “CANCELLED!” Amazing how racists blacks can be and get away with it
The irony of 'move that crane' while Shaq is probably blocking 30 people's view. National treasure this man is!
🤣🤣🤣facts
Lmao
LMFAOOO
I seem to recall that Shaq " moved " a couple cranes holding up backboards in his career! 🤣
Lol😂
You know it's a good dunk contest when Shaq reacts like this 🔥🔥
He hungry. I told you so. He hungry.🤣
Same way he did Vince ! Happy for the young man 🔥🔥
Facts.
Mac did well. But it was not a good dunk contest. It was just okay fr
@@NobleVagabond2552 Agree....But compared to the last dunk contest, this one was a good one
You know your a special dunker when Shaq says "what he do". Crazy dunks have to be watched on replay to see all the complexities.
This is why I stay home and watch them
And keep going back to watch again
"Don't miss a dunk" - Mac took that personal. He didn't miss a dunk.
Obi Toppin would never
Ironic how Shaq missed his last dunk on the recording.
And he won the contest!
the first dunk he moved the people closer to the hoop than he normally does. that double pump, was suppose to go between the legs and believe it or not he has a 720

Agreed
Everyone knows his name now so mission accomplished 🔥
Shaqs quote was like Brad Pitt in "Troy" lol
Doof comment
Before that Mac said you know my name..It was cut off
MacClung chose to accept the mission: save the dunk contest. Mission Accomplished.
Mac "540" McClung 🔥
he saved the all-star week. cause the ASG is whack..
@@adrianwong3104 Thanks broski ..
@@adrianwong3104 and that so-called skills challenge lol...oh my😱😱
@@AllenI04 That dunk was just a 360... he only did one rotation but the flare made it look like he did 540 since he kept spining after he dunked.
When someone asks What was that? You know you doing good in the dunk contest
when that someone is shaq that speaks volume
@@Theturthwill exactly...crazy. I hope the boy gets a call up to the league.
@@lazyblazer he's on a two way with the sixers. You'll see Mac catching cross court bombs from harden at least once this season!
@@oaktowndimond668 Hell yeah I'm tuning in for sure
Michael Finley Cartwheel dunk: What was that? 🤣
Mac was hungry because he was the only guy out there who actually needed the 50k.
he wants the exposure so any team can give him contract and some endorsement on instagram
Facts the guy is playing on 10 days and g league assignments
AGREED.
I thought it was 100k
@@Jon60531this dunk contest will give him another 10 day

"Nobody knows your name, make them remember your name" - Shaq
Motivational. Shaq knew what he was doing.
Shaq is always motivating players but most people take it as hating Mac, spida and Joel were the only 3 players that ain’t take it no kind of way
This was the quintessential epitome of a "feel-good story". It's just like something out of a fun Hollywood script. Congratulations to that young man and continued success
Shaq’s advice to Mac - “BE PERFECT“ and Mac Mclung was “PERFECT” ✊
00:29 MOVE THAT DAMN CRANE!
☠️💀 😂
😂😂😂
💀💀
You got 100 likes because you are 💯.
Mac really did a 540 then hit the crowd with the Vince Carter “it’s over” that was too crazy 🔥
540 with the double clutch backwards dunk probably looks more impressive than a straight 720 cuz of the power.
Gate City, VA is my hometown. Congrats to you Mac, you deserve every door you just opened for yourself!!! 🔥🔥
Shaq's face at 2:32. Priceless.
😯
like when the spicy wing touched his tongue
The meme potential is crazy tho
Describe what makes it priceless
Similar to Hot Ones.😄
It’s cool Shaq told him to make a name for himself in this moment because I had no idea who he was until he blew up on social media for this performance.
AGREED.
Go watch his high school mixtapes deadass
I am shocked no one knew who this guy was I mean his high school mixtape is straight 🔥College did the same thing. He didn't get drafted. He saw is a golden opportunity and stole the show. now he is going to shine.
@@jf9763 I love Mac but he wasn't famous famous like NBA stars. This contest got alot of eyes on him.

Shaq out here sounding like prime mutombo.
@@tylercsmith2010 😂
Shaq sounds hungry for some cookies.
@@t3jf the cookie monster
Not in my housee
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Even if he's a journeyman or doesn't make it in the league he's got this forever.
Hed have a better career making content, hed make just as much as some pros all while not having a strict schedule to deal with

He gone make it..bro ass will boost rating just getting a few dunks a game..he can shoot too
What I love is the first time we saw Shaq with a camcorder getting excited was at the Vince Carter Contest.....what a throw back.
Shareef for sure showed Mac dunking highlights to Shaq 🤣
Nah he's played with Mac too, in the Iverson classic back in highschool. He's for sure seen him with his own too eyes. Mac was on the lakers g leauge last year too.
@@makesmartTROYces hellyea he even did a nba jam pump dunk in the last game against the nuggets on the last game
What a difference a year makes. I remember Shaq's face during last years dunk contest.
Just got a contract with 76ers & balled TF out in dunk contest!! Congrats Mac!!!
I miss watching Vince Carter back in the day and Tracy McGrady was also fun to watch. And of course in recent, Aaron Gordon. But this kid was also a blast to watch, at only 6 foot 2 was incredible.
He's that tall? Daym!
SHAQ: "Make them remember your name"
MCCLUNG: Hold my Gatorade
Underrated comment of the year!
When he started stacking people to jump over, I said "he's not going to try to jump over them, he won't make it " and then he proved me wrong. This was the best dunk contest I've seen in a while. Great job having him in this
He didn't even push off the people's shoulders or back like you so often ser
Shaq is King with the hat and sporting the Championship ring. He's hilarious. OG said it perfectly with the hungry comment.
Shaq is such a positive soul. Lol. Love that guy.
Shaq's reactions are the best. I love how iconic Shaq with the camcorder at the dunk contest became lol now they got a dedicated Shaq cam
Shaq isnt the type to hype up just anyone, he knew this kid was gonna blow everyone away.
Excited to see Mac take full advantage of this opportunity and good on the NBA for letting him come out and do it.
Shaq was clean asf 😂
And he does it on his first tries. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I am from the same part of Virginia as Mac and I will say he absolutely destroyed us in highschool. We were a good team at Ridgeview, but he himself destroyed us.
Shaq is too big to be a national treasure, he's a GLOBAL treasure.
that guy is a legend. when he gone, he will be missed...
Four incredibly difficult dunks executed flawlessly on the first try while under immense pressure. That's a good day.
2:30 come on Shaq, get the angles right😭😭
So happy for Maclung!!!
Mac didn't miss one dunk either, very impressive- 👏
To me this is what Black History Month is about. It’s about our culture and respecting anyone with the grind and grit it takes to come up.
This made my Black History Month!
“Why are we looking at Shaq?”
-Reggie Miller
Nah...it was Draymond...which makes it even better :)
Bro mistakes rui hachimura to Rudy hachimura but clearly bets on Mac McClung
I can't even 😭
When Shaq say “what was that?” You done did something. Got Shaq f’ked up. 🔥 💯
Thank you mac mucclng for saving this years funk contest.i mean I knew he could do this from high school . He use to be doing this shit in game lol

“Move that damn crane”😭😭
The whiplash between my memories of Shaq as the unstoppable force on the basketball floor and current elder statesman Shaq is whew
Theres always atleast one guy in the group that verbalizes his racism
Talkin about the black history month jokes? That was YBN Cordae (rapper) saying that
Imagine a white country singer saying “ wow that black boy swimming faster then then the white swimmers” can u say “CANCELLED!” Amazing how racists blacks can be and get away with it
*Shaq -*
Make them remember your name, dont miss a dunk.
*Mac -*
Ight i gotcha
So happy to discover this new dunker. He completely stole the show.
This is like the '90s are back in the coolest way: good people having fun!
Thank you Shaq for being fair
Shaq’s the best bro 😎
Thank you Mac for saving the dunk contest and putting other players on notice!!!🤣
951 thousand followers on Instagram.
Shaq - NOBODY KNOWS YOUR NAME 😂
Yesterday I checked his Instagram had 800000 tomorrow it's going to be over 1 million
In nba terms he is unknown
All Star weekend is mainly casually viewers not everybody watches these dudes from high school
That is after the dunk contest bozo
That was priceless Shaq
That first dunk shows how easy Mac jumps. Bro floated, but jumped like he was 6’8 🤣🤣
I love shaq so much
His last reaction was actual amazement
5 years after going viral...here he comes!
I thought he was throwing shade when he said somebody not in the NBA is going to win the dunk contest. But, my guy is literally not in the NBA. 😂
He signed a two way with Philly shortly before the contest
Shaq is wrong by that statement when there’s professional dunkers can win the dunk contest by one dunk.
Been watching mac since gate city high school days letttssss goooo!!! Glad do see him getting recognition in the NBA
BIG voice of Shaq.
“make ‘em remember your name” real
GOTA LOVE SHAQ MAN, motivates Mac to give it his best and the man was on 🔥🔥 he definitely deserved the W
Love it!!!
2:31
Shaq : What was that?!?
Shaq's Camera : You tell me...
I love the "OOHHH SHIT!" In the background after the second dunk
I’ve been watching Mac since he was in HS
Facts gate city blue devils. Used to see him do all types of crazy in game dunks
I watched his mom and dad make him so beat that
@@arthurtorres3526 I uh... Watched both pairs of grandparents make his parents.. ?
I drove by his home town once driving to Florida.
Been following this kid for a decade.
Mac mclung needs a theme song , "Return of the mac "
HAAA AGREED.
That should be his nickname lol
I’m all the way with this!
A star is born
That had to feel good Shaq giving you a pep talk and then delievering by not missing a dunk and winning!
How could they hate us? Notice the HOF Shaq's words to a G League Mac.
Shaq reaction is the best 😆
special moment of the hardest dunking NBA player ever to watch a new upcoming most stylistic / informed NBA dunker
I'm loving Shaq with his beard and voice, he's like a real life Cookie Monster 😊
shaq is the most appreciative
Thank you.
Bro, Shaq is the man
been following Mr. Mac since HS he has always been so bouncy
Gate City, what's that mean? It means small town where Mac was born and played. So happy for our hometown guy. Great reaction from Shaq.
That boy can fly I knew it once he step his foot in the league..He's just getting started
That last reaction and that dunk was crazy
I got every dunk and let the 720 move outta frame🤣🤣
He is 186 cm tall and does all those crazy dunks so easily. I'm 180 cm tall and I can't even touch the hoop. :/
HOW?!!!!!
shaq is awesome
"Nobody knows your name. Make 'em remember your name." - Shaq, 2023
last time shaq reacted like this was ag vs zach. he aint the same since
Shaq having those 2000s reactions lol
Shaq was secretly hoping Cordae would shut the fuck up after the first 5 seconds 😭😭
crazy insane 😳 🔥🔥🔥 Shaq. nobody knows your name make them remember your name shshshs😎
Mac Mcclung👌🔥🔥🔥
He was the only dunker i watch the others they had was doing fisher price dunks
Damn a lot of pressure and he got it
Mac is much more than a “dunker.” The dude is good enough to be excellent in the League!
shaq got the best reactions
Mac surprised us all ❤ great show by both
Not me lol
Mac got a chance to shine and crushed it!
That’s what’s up.
Shaq believed since the beginning.
You know it's hot when Shaq reacts like that.
