The Taco Bell Skills Challenge
Jayson Tatum is the defending champion for the skills challenge and could very likely win it again. He’s probably the second-best shooter in this competition (behind only Khris Middleton) but Tatum is a little quicker the Middleton. Either way, those two guys could very easily be in the finals against each other.
Pascal Siakam is definitely the most skilled big in this competition. He’s the fastest, quickest, best passer and best shooter of any of the big men and has a real shot to win this thing. As it usually does, it will come down to the jump shot. If Siakam is able to get hot from three, he’s got a chance.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is possibly the fastest guy in the skills challenge which could help but his inconsistent jumper could be problematic. The same can be said for Spencer Dinwiddie.
Prediction: Pascal Siakam takes down Khris Middleton in the finals
