Dwight Howard wins dunk contest

Look, up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane. No, it's Dwight Howard winning the super slam dunk contest.

With a red cape trailing behind him, Orlando's forward made like Superman in winning the slam dunk contest on All-Star Saturday.

Earlier, Toronto's Jason Kapono won the long distance shooting contest for the second straight year.

In the Skills Challenge, Utah's Deron Williams was flawless and fast and beat New Orleans point guard Chris Paul in the final round.

In the night's first event, San Antonio's Becky Hammon, David Robinson and Tim Duncan won the Shooting Stars competition. It featured three-person teams consisting of an NBA player, a WNBA player and a former NBA great from the same city. Contestants had to make six shots with the final one a heave from mid-court.
