Timberwolves' LaVine unsure if he'll defend NBA Slam Dunk Contest title
It's safe to say that a majority of NBA fans would be happy to see an encore from Minnesota Timberwolves guard Zach LaVine in the Slam Dunk Contest next year in Toronto.
As a 19-year-old rookie, he tore the roof off of Barclays Center with back-to-back 50-point jams to win the 2015 Slam Dunk Contest.
Unfortunately, dunk enthusiasts will have to wait a little while longer before hearing a commitment from LaVine to participate once again, as he made clear at Timberwolves media day Monday that he hasn't decided if he'll defend his crown or not.
LaVine hasn't decided if he's going to defend his slam dunk title yet.

LaVine revealed after his win in Brooklyn that he didn't even execute his best dunk during the competition, which is a scary thought for any future challengers.
"I didn't do that one. I got some tricks in the bag still," LaVine said, according to NJ.com's Eliot Shorr-Parks.
