    CLEVELAND — Obi Toppin won the slam dunk contest, earning a 47 on his final dunk when he needed to do little more than put the ball in the basket after Juan Toscano-Anderson couldn't on his previous try.

    In a disappointing finish to All-Star Saturday (Sunday, Manila time), the four dunkers occasionally left the judging panel of Hall of Famers with expressionless looks on their faces.

    Toppin, a New York Knicks forward, beat Golden State's Toscano-Anderson in the final round to win the event after finishing second as a rookie.

    Houston rookie Jalen Green and Orlando guard Cole Anthony failed to advance. Anthony couldn't make his second dunk and appeared to hurt his thumb banging it against the rim.
