New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson knows people want to see him the Dunk Contest. Williamson has a fairly straight forward approach to competing in that event at All-Star Weekend.

"If I'm in the All-Star Game, I'll do the Dunk Contest," Williamson said. "But if I'm not, I'm not doing it."

Williamson was an All-Star in both 2021 and 2023. Williamson was injured in 2023 and unable to take part in the All-Star game. In neither 2021 nor 2023 was Williamson scheduled to take part in the Dunk Contest.
