Missouri recruit gives us dunk of the month - Beyond the Arc - NBC Sports

Funny part about that is that the guy that he dunked on is going to be his teammate at Mizzou

 

[Hawkchop]

Crazy at one point you think hes at the top of his jump but he keeps riseing

If that guy is truly 5'8" then that dunk is sick. Either way that is a really nice dunk. The other guy or soon to be teammate kind of backed of at the end.

The kid has "ups."

Or is that too old school?

Looked like half way up his elevation, someone pulled on an invisible rope to raise him another foot!

Check this one out by Jahii Carson of the Compton Magic. Kid also goes to the same school in Arizona that produced Aaron Fuller.

I love the fact that these kids take it to the rim with bad intentions. I think it was Charles Barkely that said "dunking was partially a mental skill" meaning that most guys at the pro level have the physical ability to dunk and dunk well, but to dunk on someone or in traffic is a mental committment.

I don't recall Chris Weber ever settling for a lay-up when he played at Michigan, he took the ball up strong with the intention of dunking regardless of who was defending him. Reggie Evans is the last Iowa player that remotely comes close to that in my opinion.

While I agree that the kid can get up, a lot of the credit must go to the big guy who didn't attempt to block the shot. I think the all star game rule was in effect. Nobody play any defense.

Looked like the defender made a decent attempt at blocking the shot. That was an amazing dunk.

 

[sioux34]

I don't know what you where looking at WDM. He never even got his hand above the rim, and really ducked out of the way towards the end.

 

[hawkfarmer]

It looked like he literally floated up there. Gravity just gave up for a second and he just floated up there Willy Wonka style.

 

[franstheman]

i can't wait til we sign athletes like that kid!

 

[HawkPrdatr40]

Were my eyes playing tricks on me? That looked wierd...

Guys, watch the replay closely at the 0:18 mark. He hooks his left arm over the big guy's right arm and levers himself up a little extra. That's where you get the weird "double-float" effect on the distant replay.
