Rudy Gay is a late scratch for the Slam Dunk Contest due to a left hip flexor strain; he will be replaced by J.R. Smith, who finished third in 2005.
Here are brief videos by the other three Slam Dunk Contest participants: defending champion Dwight Howard, 2006 champion Nate Robinson and rookie Rudy Fernandez, who threw down an impressive dunk over Howard in the Olympic gold medal game last summer.
