according to draftexpress, gordon had a 40 inch vert, derozan was at 38.5. both have the same wingspan.

I think they measure players jumping off two feet at the pre-draft camp unless I'm mistaken, DeRozan is more of a one foot leaper

DeRozan doesn't jump like he used to in high school.

As a Clipper fan I got to say i am a little baffled. I have watched Gordon for the last 2 years and not once have I been impressed with any dunks of his. Its usually a scrape over the front rim standard dunk.

I'd go with Demar Derozan

I'm sure he didn't lose his athleticism..Just chooses not to.

Gordon seems to be more of an in-game dunker.

My man EJ has hops, but I haven't seen anything that is that fancy from him yet. I was actually surprised to see that he'd be participating in this. I think DeRozan will probably take it based on what we've seen so far.

Doesnt this put these guys at a pretty big disadvantage? There going to have to use up a couple of their good dunks to get into the dunk conteset, and won't be able to use them later.

I thought I saw something earlier tonight about them bringing it back. Will Durant defend his title?

I don't get how this is going to benefit the NBA by having the dunk-in during a halftime show. Just add the two players to the actual contest.
