Andre Jackson Jr. has officially announced his commitment to participate in the 2025 Slam Dunk Contest, adding his name to the growing list of confirmed participants.
Jackson will join Stephon Castle and Matas Buzelis, who have also confirmed their participation in the highly anticipated event.
Currently, in his second season in the NBA, Jackson has shown flashes of his athleticism and potential.
The former UConn standout is averaging 3.6 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 1.4 assists while playing 17.3 minutes per game across 39 appearances this season.
While his statistical output may not stand out, Jackson’s athleticism and high-flying style make him a compelling choice for the dunk contest.
The reigning Slam Dunk Contest champion, Mac McClung, has dominated the event for the past two years, setting a high standard for creativity and showmanship.
With Jackson, Castle, and Buzelis entering the mix, fans are eager to see how the 2025 contest shapes up and whether someone can dethrone McClung or deliver a standout performance to remember.
