00:03 >> What are you anticipating for Saturday's festivities?

00:07 >> Well, I think the one everybody's looking forward to is the Steph against

00:10 Sabrina Inescu, the WNBA player who set the record last year, I guess,

00:15 for the three point contest.

00:17 We interviewed her yesterday.

00:18 She confirmed with us she's actually gonna shoot from the NBA line.

00:22 So the slam dunk contest is hit or miss, right?

00:25 Some years you get a great one like you had a couple of years ago with Zach Levine

00:28 and Aaron Gordon.

00:29 I think this past year with Matt McClellan was pretty cool.

00:32 He's gonna try and defend his title.

00:34 But that's hit or miss, the three point contest.

00:36 We've seen that a million times before.

00:38 We've never seen this Steph against Sabrina type of thing.

00:41 So I think it adds a new wrinkle.

00:43 And certainly there's gonna be, I would say, a lot of pressure on Steph to win

00:47 the thing because you know how social media is now, where you're gonna get a lot

00:51 of, how could you be the greatest shooter of all time and you lost to a woman?

00:56 So I give Steph a lot of credit for going out there and putting his reputation

01:00 on the line because we see a lot of guys like LeBron who have never participated

01:04 in a slam dunk contest because he's afraid of what it would do to his reputation.

01:08 But we have Steph doing this, so I commend Steph for doing it.
