The six-man field for the dunk contest at All-Star Weekend in New Orleans will feature three big names from the actual All-Star Game, the league confirmed Thursday night.

Indiana's Paul George, Washington's John Wall and Portland's Damian Lillard are confirmed entrants in the dunk field, which was officially announced Thursday on TNT.

They will be joined by defending champion Terrence Ross of the Toronto Raptors in the competition.

Golden State's Harrison Barnes and Sacramento rookie Ben McLemore are the other two participants in the contest, which has met with lukewarm reviews the past several years, partly due to a lack of star power on display.
