Blake Griffin open to joining Dunk Contest?

US PresswireLos Angeles Clippers power forward Blake Griffin won the Slam Dunk Contest during last year's All-Star weekend, but he's said that he isn't planning on going for a second title this year.

But now the big weekend, which will run from Feb. 24-26 in Orlando, is getting close and the Orlando Sentinel reports that Griffin is now not saying so definitively that he won't do it.

When approached after Monday's shootaround before the Clippers topped the Orlando Magic 107-102, Griffin said, "I haven't been approached yet, so we'll see what happens with that. We'll see what they're going to do, and I'll guess I'll make a decision."

Griffin is averaging 21.2 points, 10.9 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game.

    C'mon Blake!!! DO IT BRO!!!! Defend ur Dunk Title!!! btw, that would be AWESOME if Blake Griffin and Lebron James were in the dunk contest! I really hope that happens...but Lebron will probably @#$% out b/c he won't want to lose to Blake, who is the BEST dunker in the game!!!
