Glenn Robinson III was crowned as the NBA's new dunk King in the recent NBA All-Star events. While in the 3-point contest Eric Gordon has it. And the Skills Challenge goes to Kristap Porzingis.

According to Sports Yahoo, Robinson's close rival was Derrick Jones Jr. who managed to make a perfect score on his second dunk. Jones stunned spectators when he received a bounce pass in the paint, put it between his legs and threw down a left-handed jam.

But Robinson got the edge when he leaped over all three, snagging the ball from George and finished with an emphatic, two-handed reverse jam. He got the perfect score and the title on his last dunk. Jones got a problem from his first when he did not complete his difficult first dunk of two in the final round.

Robinson showed his best dunk in his first. He leaps like a frog over a man sitting on another's shoulder, grabs the ball in his hands and slammed it all the way to the goal. He said he was influenced by 2000 champ Vince Carter and the legendary Michael Jordan. Both Robinson and Jones delighted the crowd and their teammates.

After the show Robinson said that he knows that he is a jumper, he said he is the guy that stays out of his way, but when it's time to shine, that's his thing. ''I knew all along I had some things planned and I just wanted to show the world,'' he added.

Houston's Eric Gordon snatched the throne from Golden State defending champion Klay Thompson. He got his win in New Orleans, where he played the previous five seasons before leaving last summer in free agency. He defeated Kyrie Irving with 18 shots while he scored 21 in a final-round tiebreaker. He said he wasn't really concentrating on how many he made, it's all about just knocking down the shot. He never counted in his head or anything, he just goes out and shoots the ball, as reported by ABC News.

The 7'3" Porzingis beats Utah's Gordon Hayward. Before Hayward was defeated by Porsingis, he first caused the vanquished of guards John Wall of Washington and Isaiah Thomas of Boston. Porsingis emerged from the big men's division that included Pelican's Anthony Davis and Denver's Nikola Jokic.
