Denver Nuggets star Aaron Gordon is well-known for his must-see, highlight-reel dunks. His most notable run came in the famous 2016 Slam Dunk Contest against Zach LaVine, which was one of the best in recent memory.

Ja Morant teased that he might want to try the NBA Dunk Contest after Mac McClung made NBA history by winning his third straight on Saturday night, and Morant wanted to see Zach LaVine and Aaron Gordon return to the event as well.

Aaron Gordon is the prince who never became the NBA's Dunk Contest king. The Denver Nuggets forward, known for his otherworldly athleticism, is considered one of the best dunkers ever.

Denver Nuggets star Aaron Gordon sat down with Newsweek Sports to discuss his new partnership and potentially returning to the dunk contest.
