PBA All Star Weekend Recap Sunday

Nino Canaleta captures 5th Slam Dunk Title

Barangay Ginebra Kings' KG Canaleta has captured his 5th Slam Dunk Title in a pefect score (100) during the finals of the Slam Dunk Competition. He went over the final round dunking on one men during his first try and three men on his final dunk. His closest competitor, JC Intal was a point shy away from capturing the title. Gabe Norwood, the 2009 Dunk Contest Champion may have felt the pressure and garnered only 93 points in the final round.
