Cole Anthony dunks in Timberlands but fails to advance in Dunk Contest

The basketball world awaited while Cole Anthony laced up his Timberlands.

Anthony opened the Slam Dunk Contest by having his father, Greg Anthony, bring him out a pair of Timbs to change into. He sat on the bench lacing them for what seemed like a comically long time, put on his dad’s No. 50 Knicks jersey, and stepped onto the court to attempt a New York themed dunk.

With his dad holding the ball at the basket, Cole grabbed the ball and threw down a left-handed windmill after multiple tries for the first dunk completed wearing Timberlands in NBA history.
