Can the Spurs rookie be the first in franchise history to win the NBA All-Star Dunk Contest?
SAN ANTONIO — According to a report via Chris Haynes, San Antonio Spurs rookie Stephon Castle has been invited to the 2025 NBA All-Star Dunk Contest in San Francisco.
Castle has been throwing down impressive dunks this season. He can explode to the rim, throw down ferocious dunks, and elevate.
This season, one of his best dunks came against the Thunder, which shows why he may win the dunk contest.
Should he win the dunk contest, Castle will become the first in Spurs history to walk away with the trophy.
