LeBron James Picks Blake Griffin to Win Dunk Contest (Video)

Filed under: Clippers, Heat, Raptors, NBA All-Star Game, NBA Videos

LOS ANGELES -- Like most people, LeBron James expects Blake Griffin to take home the trophy in All-Star Saturday night's dunk contest. Griffin has been an athletic beast this season, and everyone -- including King James -- believes he has the best chance of not only winning the event, but doing so in an exciting fashion we haven't seen in years.

"(Griffin's) explosiveness is higher than mine's ever been," James said.

LeBron also called DeMar DeRozan his "sleeper," but it was clear that he, like the rest of us, sees Griffin emerging as the champ.

Video of LeBron's comments can be seen in the clip below.
