Jaxon Richardson, Jason's Son, Wins 2026 HS All-American Dunk Contest as Oliviyah Edwards Shines
The high flyers of the class of 2026 showed off their best dunks at the McDonald's All-American Dunk Contest on Monday night.
Jaxon Richardson, the son of NBA icon Jason Richardson, took home the victory after a number of impressive dunks. His winning dunk saw him hit a windmill while jumping over several people.
Richardson, who is considered to be a 4-star prospect by 247Sports' composite rankings, is heading to Alabama next season, and fans are ready to see what he can do on Nate Oats' squad.
While Richardson blew the judges away with his final dunk, Oliviyah Edwards and Toni Bryant joined him in the final after some creative slams.
Edwards, who is set to join the Lady Vols next season, got her one-handed slam to go on her first attempt of the night.
After Tennessee posted one of its worst seasons in program history in 2025-26, getting an elite prospect like Edwards on the roster could help spark a bounce-back year in Kim Caldwell's third campaign.
Bryant, who is considered to be a 5-star prospect by 247Sports' composite rankings, is committed to Missouri and will look to give the Tigers new life after a mediocre season.
