Slam Dunk Contest champion Robinson III would love to see Donovan Mitchell compete in the contest

Robinson won't defend the title won last season

NBA
Glenn Robinson III of the Pacers won’t defend the Slam Dunk Contest Title won last season because of his ankle injury. But the player hopes that Jazz rookie Donovan Mitchell will compete in the contest.

Per Deseret News, As NBA All-Star weekend approaches Feb. 16-18, the reigning slam dunk champion won’t be back in time to defend his crown but would like to see Jazz rookie Donovan Mitchell participate in Los Angeles just like the rest of the world.
“Definitely. Just based off the highlights that I’ve seen and just watching his game. I like his game,” Robinson said. “I know a lot of people do and a lot of fans is excited and that’s the most important part. So I think that he definitely is going to be on that list to be in it.
“Unfortunately I can’t do it this year because of my ankle but I would love to get back in it but it was a helluva experience for me,” he added. “Last year, going down there I was kind of the underdog and people didn’t expect for me to win it or didn’t know what I had in storage but (Donovan’s) got some bunnies so he will come up with something.”
