Filipinos are undeniably some of the biggest basketball fans in the world. Even FIBA called us as the Most Valuable Fans after the 2014 FIBA World Cup, showing our passion for the sport whether it’s played in arenas or on the streets.
This February, Warner TV has a special treat for Filipino basketball fans. For the first time on Philippine TV, the network is bringing you the hit reality contest that has captured the hearts of basketball fans all over the world, The Dunk King.
The Dunk King, a TNT Original Series, is a reality competition that offers basketball enthusiasts a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show off their creativity and skills when it comes to dunking. It features dunkers from different parts of the world in their quest to become the next dunking celebrity and win USD 100,000 in the process.
The show is hosted by Terrence J and Kenny Smith with basketball icons as judges including Shaquille O’Neal who’s arguably the best (and biggest) center position of all time, Charles Barkley, NBA’s most dominant power forward during his time, and Brent Barry who played for the San Antonio Spurs and was once named the NBA Slam Dunk Contest Champion.
Watch these ballers as they employ various tricks and stunts, take the leap from obscurity, dunk their way to celebrity status, and earn the coveted title of Dunk King.
The reality competition premieres today at 8:10 p.m. on Warner TV. Weekly episodes airs every Thursday.
