Los Angeles Clippers' rookie sensation Blake Griffin, whose ferocious dunks have been highlighted on Internet, will look to rise above three other high-flyers on all-star weekend at Los Angeles' Staples Centre.
The new slam dunk champion will come from a group made up of Griffin, the Milwaukee Bucks' Brandon Jennings, the Oklahoma City Thunder's Serge Ibaka and the Washington Wizards' JaVale McGee.
The four competitors will display their acrobatic slams and jams on February 19 in the fan-favourite competition, won the last two years by 5-foot-9 mighty mite Nate Robinson of the Boston Celtics.
