How to watch Bronny James, DJ Wagner, Juju Watkins & more in McDonald’s All-American 3-Point, Dunk Contest

By | March 27, 2023

All eyes will be on Houston this week as the top high school talent from around the country will participate in the McDonald’s All-American Game.

The all-star festivities get started on Monday as select members of this year’s McDonald’s All-American Game will participate in three challenges: Knock-out, the 3-Point Contest and, of course, the Slam Dunk Contest.

Last year, Indya Nivar and Mark Mitchell took home the Skills Challenge. Ashlon Jackson and Keyonte George knocked down enough shots to win the 3-Point Contest and Ashlyn Watkins brought the crowd to their feet, edging out Dillon Mitchell to become the Slam Dunk Contest champion. 

The likes of Isaiah Collier, DJ Wagner, Bronny James, Juju Watkins and Jada Williams all have the potential to dazzle the Houston crowd this year. There’s no doubt the 2023 Powerade Jam Fest will be must-see TV.

Here’s all you need to know to tune into the event including the start time and TV channel.
