Shaquille O’Neal is launching DUNKMAN, a new professional dunk league built entirely around elite dunkers competing as a standalone sport rather than a side event attached to basketball. The league will feature 24 competitors battling through multiple live events for a $500,000 championship prize, with Shaq serving as commissioner.
The project expands on the DUNKMAN series that aired previously and reflects growing interest in turning viral dunk culture into a structured competition format. Events are expected to air across TNT, TBS, truTV, and HBO Max, giving professional dunking a much larger platform than the traditional NBA Slam Dunk Contest ever provided.
