Why Did Vince Carter Wear AND1 at the 2000 Dunk Contest


Listen Later

25 years ago, Vince Carter delivered the greatest performance in NBA dunk contest history. But one question remains: why did he wear AND1 sneakers that night? Alex and Jerome search for answers, speaking with former AND1 marketing director Jeff Roth, sneaker experts Russ Bengtson and Nick DePaula, Josh Roter of In Vintage We Trust, and GQ’s Yang-Yi Goh. They reveal the behind-the-scene story of the 2000 dunk contest, Carter’s sneaker legacy, and more.
