NBA: Nate completes Dunk Contest three-peat

Demar DeRozan produced the dunk of the competition but it was defending champion Nate Robinson who prevailed, becoming the first ever three-time winner.

DeRozan - of the Toronto Raptors - brought the crowd to its feet in the first round with a dunk using the side of the backboard, scoring a maximum 50.

But it was a rare high point as the contest lacked some of its usual spark and drew criticism from TNT's Charles Barkley. In the final, Robinson had the marginally better dunks and scooped the trophy with 51% of the fan vote.
