welcome to the 2018 Powerade Jam Fest here in Atlanta this year little number 10 player in the class let's see if the Orlando native has some magic in them it up windmill glass furnace here little here's another look at it no little dump there from flying high a little bit nelson-ododa there has been a girl who's won this competition before you go back to 2004 and it was Candace Parker yeah [Applause] she just ran by kept me going this is no surprise that she dumped it that's like I do this all the time that's like work that the fact that was quick though it was like that quick reaction I don't think I really want to see Quinn Toledo I want to see jelly fam jelly fam is a special style wait a minute do that jelly fam is a special finger roll and he's not the world's biggest guy so he's getting way off the ground to do that and Alex to find toxin hey Dotson has some bouncer we've been sleeping on him he's got hang time I thought he was going through a 360 there and then he just changes it at the last second it doesn't windmill no Darius garland who's been in and out the dunk contest we're sure if he was actually going to be able to participate you know big respective rights drew getting a big-time recruiting class abandon Bella rice drew very well may not be done has his sights set on Romeo Langford and EJ Montgomery joining him at Vanderbilt I think that's my favorite part about this whole week is that the the inner workings of all the recruiting the guys who are left unsigned you know guys who are working on them constantly and they're trying to compete with each other who gets a chance to sign a guy it really makes you consider this might be a place for me but zero is the score and now what we've been waiting for [Applause] [Music] he gonna make that he's doing it easy he's right there yes sir I don't care how many times it took this turns off the glass between the legs there should be nothing but ten I would love to see some iron lower the rim to seven feet and try to do that on a seven foot rim Tony don't do that on a 7 foot brim Tony giving nods away out here for dad and 8th on the docket is Quentin Grimes number 8 in the ESPN 100 looking for the side of the backboard one hand [Applause] yeah the side angles better there it is that's a good dog the leader right now Olivia nelson-ododa the number five player in the class of 2018 on the girls side signed to UConn but Zion and round number one did not disappoint here's his last shot oh we got a little jelly fam coming out there but not enough to get a dunk down for little Breanna Stewart threw down a couple of 2012 also the dunk is similar she still gets up above the rim throws it down but are the scores similar because she doesn't have the environment the same height behind the crowd there you go that's it you see the jelly fam maybe with the better jelly bean he's got me but I think that's a statement J he's making a statement he's not here to dump he's here things to represent the jelly fans [Music] are you more impressive by a shorter dunker or a taller done a shorter Duncans much more impressive as you see devadatta put his head around the rim the creativity and everything else would that's what truly shows off your bounce I mean the first time he tried to jump gosh he literally took his left hand and pushed off the side of the backboard because he was about to hit him that's how high he is well his dad Winston Garland was a big-time player so if he's going to get hit by some somebody that's a great one if I give him a C on the cart world oh that was a horrible C - that's a throwback dunk though I want to say like 15 16 years ago we saw it then click did someone take their shirt off and do the cartwheel yeah those were should ever separate done those were separate Dunn's [Music] that was impressive but by missing the first or the first attempt I thought that was takes away from this that's another one Cory like go home lower the basket the seven feet see if you could do a 360 women absolutely but Jake let's talk about even more impressive about this dump Zion Williamson's left-handed look how far they own that's his right hand his left hand that makes this even more impressive I don't even know if the judges recognize that and we talked about Mike putting your head in the rim he's looking down on that if everybody could see me at home right now I got a bitter beer face and nice dunk by Grimes off the bounce putting his head up on the rim so of course ion is moving on well I said come up beside that back door perfect that's not what he wanted that's not what he wanted [Applause] that's what made the dunk work in the first round your company in the juice no let's go oh no [Applause] last chance [Applause] [Music] [Applause] that's ridiculous look at that unreal and again this is a young man who's been sitting around who's been watching other he's not even like 100 percent loose right now the things that he's able to do and you mention it he does dunk contest level jumps in game I'm putting Zion Williamson already the greatest duckers ever to be in the game but he's letting them ahead of Vince though you got a dunk over a seven footer first to get up there with Vince yeah literally clear seven yeah yeah great effort from Olivia nelson-ododa death special that is the ability to drive past your defender Quentin Grimes six-five between the legs for his last on down to the tough one very nice gun [Music] I mean this is exist a big-time dumb unfortunetely everybody's waiting for Zion Williamson Cordy filming this I'm not saying he's a better talker than Vince Carter or LeBron James [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Oh [Applause] yeah scion with his last duck to finish it off Dominique Wilkins back in 1988 going way down beat and bringing it back up look how dr. cook puts that basketball he can you guys do me a favor in the truck can we see a replay of the dunk that he missed that's a highlight within itself I don't care about the scores regardless as to what the score says i Williamson wins this dunk contest oh my goodness
