We still don’t know which NBA Dunk Contest judge messed up and gave Derrick Jones Jr. the title

HMMMMMMMM.

The NBA All-Star weekend’s biggest conspiracy has still gone unsolved.

Miami Heat leaper Derrick Jones Jr. defeated his Orlando Magic counterpart Aaron Gordon in a shocking NBA dunk contest result, particularly after Gordon leaped over 7-foot-5 Tacko Fall to throw one down. Gordon was robbed a second time after his incredible 2016 performance ended with Zach LaVine winning.

So where’s the conspiracy?

Per ESPN, some of the judges told Ramona Shelburne they had planned for a tie that would lead to a second dunk-off. Candace Parker said that was the case. So did rapper Common.

“We thought it was going to be tied. We were like, ‘This is a tie!’ But somebody didn’t do it right. I don’t know who it is,” he told Shelburne.

In other words, the idea was to get Gordon’s score to 48 to match Jones’ tally from his previous dunk. But he got a 47, which means one of these three judges went rogue: Scottie Pippen, Chadwick Boseman and Jones’ former teammate, Dwyane Wade.

Everyone’s pointing fingers at Wade, who said afterwards that he “wasn’t the only one who gave him a 9.” He also posted this on Instagram:

No word from Boseman and Pippen, but these reactions are … interesting.

Hmmmm.
