Tucker wins dunk contest

Earlier this week, we told you about YouTube sensation Jacob Tucker from Division III Illinois College, earning a spot in the NCAA's annual dunk contest and last night, the 5'11" guard showed off his 50" vertical leap on ESPN2 and took home the title as the best dunker in the country.

Tucker was the only player to earn a 50 in the first round and after missing two dunks in the final round, he jumped over a ball-boy, who was holding the ball over his head, and threw down a powerful reverse dunk.

"It's unbelievable, just because a lot of these other guys here are D-I players," Tucker said after the contest. "They're used to being on the national stage, and this dunk contest, to their schools, didn't necessarily mean as much. To be able to represent my school on a national stage is a real honor."

The contest will re-air on ESPN2 tomorrow at 1:30 p.m. ET.
