The Latest: Robinson wins dunk contest, caps Saturday events

NEW ORLEANS — The Latest on Saturday's NBA All-Star events (all times local):

9:25 p.m.

Glenn Robinson III of the Indiana Pacers is the All-Star slam dunk champion.

Robinson beat Derrick Jones Jr. of the Phoenix Suns in the final round. Robinson clinched the win with a perfect 50 on the final dunk of the night — going over three people for a reverse dunk and nearly touching his head on the rim in the process.

Robinson and Jones embraced when it was over, and Robinson went over to shake hands with judges.

"This is just the beginning for me," Robinson said.
