Kings Dunkers Make Splash in Rio

The NBA House Rio, coined “the ultimate NBA Brasil fan experience,” showcased a bevy of talented dunkers and entertainers throughout the Olympic competition.

Among the featured included the Miami Heat’s mascot, Burnie, Charlotte Hornets dancers, the Honey Bees, and NBA legends Gary Payton and Glen Rice.

It was the Sacramento Kings Dunkers, however, who really fired up the crowd in collaboration with professional dunker Jordan Kilganon.

Kilganon, whose nickname is “Mission Impossible,” made a series of impressive throwdowns with the help of the Kings Dunkers. In one sequence, Kilganon jumped over all four of the Sacramento slammers and threw down his signature “scorpion” jam.

Aside from helping with Kilganon’s routine, the high-flying crew, who perform at many Kings games during the season, showed off some of their signature slams as well.

Often invited to take their talents to cities around the country, the Kings Dunkers made sure to leave a jaw-dropping impression on their Olympic audience in Brazil.
