Since when has "humble" ever been a priority to make an NBA roster? Either he's good enough or he's not. "Deserves" has nothing to do with it, especially because only his clueless fanboys think he deserves to be in the NBA. "Humble" is a quality some idiot that doesn't know basketball at any level would mention.
@@laurad2442 Not in the NBA, he will be a liability on defense. Plus dunking without any defenders is one thing but he won't be able to do his hire wire act in the lane during a real game sir.
Those first camera angles though in the beginning of the video shocked me at just how good he is. Everything he does is clean and efficient. No wasted movements or miscalculations. Just a straight up assassin.
McClung going into the dunk contest is so smart. He's gonna make every NBA team realize what they've been missing out on. And the few teams he's been on either had no space for another guard or they used him wrong.
@Tom Usurp You're dreaming that his dunking ability is a factor in this. It may look impressive but it isn't a prerequisite for becoming an NBA point guard.
@@philosoraptor2285 It puts people in seats and that's what it's all about. Dude is better than a ton of guys that are in the league, he's just getting passed over constantly.
Mac isn’t doing anything we haven’t seen before. But HE IS way ahead of his peers and nobody his size, from his background and part of the country can touch him. He will leave a special mark in the NBA at some point. I cannot wait for his dreams to come true! Let’s F’in Go, Mac Nasty!
First he has to make the NBA before he can "leave his special mark." If and when that does or doesn't happen then talk about it. Don't just endlessly drone on about Mac being a future Allstar when so far he's incapable of playing on the bottom of an NBA bench with a regular season contract. If he makes it by all means talk smack about what you think he's going to do at that level but in the end he has to actually make it to that level of play first.
It's a shame that NBA teams didn't keep Mac on their roster. Hell, he put on a dunking show in his last game as a Laker. I know it's not all about dunking, but the kid can hoop. He has all the fundamentals you need in a guard and he hustles his ass off. It's just a matter of him going to a team that has a system that works for him. I wish him the best!
Pretty sure he’s 6’2. He’s taller than iverson and he was a monster. Granit Mac is no iverson but he could be a monster in the NBA if given a shot in my opinion.
@@TrackStar42 back-in-the-day muggsy bogues Spud Webb Isaiah Thomas who is the second best point guard of all time only 6 ft tall now the game is not quite as fun as when we had dashers and Crashers
Deserves has f-ck all to do with Mac making the NBA. Besides who is deciding who deserves what you moron, you? Do you honestly think your dumb non-balling ass is better qualified to say who deserves to be in the NBA, than NBA scouts, coaches and GM's? If so you are retarded. Who cares wtf you "feel." Professionals feel he's not ready.
"Criminal" that an undersized shoot first point guard with a mediocre defensive and assist skills isn't getting picked up by an NBA team? There's nothing criminal about that. What's messed up are clueless fanboys like you, who still think Mac can walk on water despite being cut from three NBA teams he had shots with. What's "criminal" is you same fanboys tards thinking you know better than NBA scouts, coaches and GM's, just because you regularly watch Mac's UA-cam hype videos.
@@philosoraptor2285 First off, you obviously know nothing about basketball, a 6'-2" scoring guard is exactly what the NBA wants, that's why they have several of them. Secondly, he's never been cut from a G-League team, if he's waived by an NBA team then he's no longer able to play for their G-League squad. He has to play for the NBA's G-League team who signs him. He's shooting 63% FG & 48.6% from 3. You're obviously a hater and I feel like I just wasted my time presenting you with facts because you won't use them to stop you from being ignorant on things you know nothing about.
Yes I agree . Anyone that KNOWS talent can tell he’s got NBA game . Definitely and nba shot . He just dropped 40 last night on 7 3s… smart move on the dunk contest hopefully it’ll OPEN up some eyes
Really how is it you "know talent?" I'm being serious now, what makes you more knowledgeable than NBA scouts, coaches and GM's? Did you just magic yourself that ability there Harry Pooter? Have you coached at any level beyond Jr High (I have)? Have you played at the high school level or above (I have)? If your answer to those questions is no then you know f-ck all about judging talent. Watching basketball on TV doesn't make you an expert in anything but watching TV.
As a Golden State Warrior's fan, it hurts to the bone knowing he went to Philly while he could easily fullfill the GP II role in the team. Full respect for GPII but is hard not to think about it...
Be 4-5" taller would be my guess. He's listed at 6'2" which means he's really probably only 6'1" barefoot, if he's lucky. In other words way undersized for an NBA shooting guard.
it's a major criminal offence that this guy is not on a NBA team roster. If I was a GM he would have been hired many moons ago. He is a starting five quality player. Go Mac!!!!!!
@@philosoraptor2285 lol, how come all major publications are _also_ reporting that mac will be at the nba dunk contest, the first-ever g-leaguer, clown? 🤣🤣🤣
@@philosoraptor2285 I think you are wrong about that. Mac was invited by the NBA to participate in the dunk contest. It's their league, so I guess they can invite whomever they want to participate. Apparently, the NBA players don't want to risk an injury that could affect their career.
Give this kid a chance. I don't want to hear about defence, or size or anything. He could be a second guard on 18 teams right now. A guy that pushes pace and eats a few minutes. Right now. No problem.
Why has it taken so long for this kid to sign a deal in the NBA. He’s better than a lot of guys currently playing in the league. I don’t understand this.
My man just won the 2023 NBA dunk contest!!!!
This kid is so humble and deserves to be in the NBA

I want Mac to win so bad but Sharpe is has more hops and is taller so he might win this year
He doesn't dunk often in G-League games. It's a non-factor in signing him to the NBA.

Been watching Mac since hs...keep working bro WE ALL KNOW YOU WILL GET YOUR SHOT IN THE LEAGUE!!!!!
So excited for him! Winning the dunk contest. Hard working,humble, and just loves hoops. Hope he gets a fair shake
This definitely makes the dunk contest more interesting!
The NBA was so much more exciting in the 80s and 90s because they also let great small players play and it made the game more interesting and fun
Now it's all shooting, it literally boring and predictable.

And now he's the 2023 NBA Slam Dunk champion!!!
I loved him back in highschool
Eastbay to a two hand reverse off dribble was 🔥 🔥
I first saw this dude when Riff Raff was posting about him like 5 years ago since they're cousins. Hope he gets to the NBA.
That was so cool. Him getting to show out in front of someone I'm sure he looked up to growing up, Allen Iverson.
Proud of you Mac
That first step is amazing too
Whos here after he won the 2023 nba dunk contest? 🤔 🏆

Stay at it man, you can make a team! I believe!
His natural gameplay is so...is so... _swaggy_ !
Go Mac!
Love how much respect he was getting. There will always be room for ballers like him. If the NBA is not the route for now, then Europe will call .
Truth right here VA all day💯💯

😲 SHOCKING JUST TOTALLY SHOCKING TO DUNK LIKE THAT AT HIS HEIGHT & HE HAD NO IDEA HE would win it
All in the NBA DUNK
CONTEST 👏👏👏☺️
Little did everyone know that he was gonna win the 2023 NBA DUNK CONTEST a month later.
Between the legs into a 2 handed reverse... Nasty...
Hey mac I am from swva also wise county when your next thing in gate city like camp
I never seen that dunk before! When he passes the ball from his right to left hand behind his back while in the air and then dunks with his left.
Keep grinding Mac
You changed that title fast
Lifting ability of Mac is absolutely insane! Defying the law of gravity. 😅😊👍
🔥
Don't injure yourself young fella, the NBA have tough love for young players
Steve Francis, Baron Davis. Nate Robinson all wrapped up in one
Mac, ja, Jalen green, and zion would be my top 4. Lets be honest The dunk Contest been wack af since that Zach and AG fiasco.
He should be on the active roster for Golden State.. at least he plays really good Defense and hustles like crazy
As a Golden State Warrior's fan, it hurts to the bone knowing he went to Philly while he could easily fullfill the GP II role in the team. Full respect for GPII but is hard not to think about it...
Ferocious dunks for 6'2
Dude put up 40 three days ago in the G league. What does he have to do to get a spot on a squad?
Damn really? I think he’ll eventually land a spot in the NBA in the near future
Be 4-5" taller would be my guess. He's listed at 6'2" which means he's really probably only 6'1" barefoot, if he's lucky. In other words way undersized for an NBA shooting guard.
Be over 30
This cat is gonna win the whole thing
Looked pretty good during the runs
Honestly the bucks should get him on the roster and have him compete with Allen.
Gates City, that's the area my grandma was from. She was from Volney. That's Blue Ridge mtn territory.
My HS coach once told me, “just because you can dunk doesn’t mean you can play basketball”.
he can play basketball but his dunking is way better
Open the contest with the behind the back dunk...then reverse between the legs... gotta hit it 2st try though... hell own all star weekend

Will McClung be the most vertically gifted white nba player ever if he makes a team? Its so rare to see a 6'2'' guard get his head rim level
Great job ! Skywalker woo
Can he compete in the dunk contest if he’s not in the NBA?
No he can't participate unless he's in the NBA. That pretty much sums up the Mac fanboy lack of knowledge.

I think they invite one player from the g league each year but not positive
Who's here after he won it last night ?
Nobody plays defense in the NBA anymore. He should be on a roster for sure maybe not starting on most teams but definitely rotated in.
You predicted it!
he updated his title lmao
Amazing how high he jump and how creatively he dunk
Super impressive.
Looks athletic af
You called it. I think all of us who have followed Mac since his HS years knew he'd have won it though 😂😂😂
His explosiveness reminds me of Steve Francis
Well he actually is the champ now
Give this kid a chance. I don't want to hear about defence, or size or anything. He could be a second guard on 18 teams right now. A guy that pushes pace and eats a few minutes. Right now. No problem.
the real white iverson💯
Through the legs with two hands. Dang!!
Why is this not in the nba. Phx suns get this guy now
Literally the only white dude in the building and the best hooper…respect
He makes the hoop look like it's 7 feet lmfao
The angle on that 5:28 dunk .......
Why has it taken so long for this kid to sign a deal in the NBA. He’s better than a lot of guys currently playing in the league. I don’t understand this.
It's ova!
Why are players now allowed to pick up their dribble take a jab step in and then hop over and backwards while taking two more steps and then shoot?
Started from the bottom now we here “drake voice”
“You wasn’t shooting with me in the gym”
he got some in his bag for next year for sure.
Whichever team gets him.. they are in for a treat.
gotem Mac!
Who here after nba dunk contest?
Am I missing something? I thought you had to be in the NBA to get into the dunk contest.
He’s in the G league. Dunk contest is so mid they had to make an exception. Had to do something for clout
After last years mess of a dunk competition, they had try something new
Was there any doubt that Mac was gonna win the Dunk Contest during the All-Star weekend?
Dude has absolutely zero chance against Shaedon Sharpe
BILLY HOYLE!!!
