Creativity abounds in the yearly NBA All-Star slam dunk, and it appears this year’s entry from the Milwaukee Bucks is asking for the help from an MVP.
No, not the Bucks’ current NBA MVP, Giannis Antetokounmpo. A Milwaukee Brewers star who won an MVP.
Pat Connaughton sent this tweet out Wednesday asking for the assistance of Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich in Saturday night’s slam dunk event.
What do you say?? @ChristianYelich pic.twitter.com/sSB4cpNKU5

Yelich did not immediately share a response on social media, though he retweeted Connaughton’s offer.
Most often, such a celebrity presence leads to the dunker leaping over that individual and slamming the ball home.
But the imagination abounds: Could we see Yelich batting a basketball for Connaughton to catch on the fly and dunk?
Who knows. Stay tuned.
