The only time I’ve ever dunked a basketball is when I cranked my 10-foot hoop down to about seven feet and did boring ass tomahawk and two-handed slams. Yeah, pretty pathetic.
Louisville men’s hoops player Donovan Mitchell has shown he can dunk on a normal sized hoop plenty of times before, but he got all sorts of fancy during a practice dunk before the Cards game the other night, when, trying to go through the legs for a jam, the ball slipped out of his hands, flew into the air about 12 feet and dropped through the rim anyway.
What looked like an epic fail turned into a dunk that most people could never do—not even on a seven-foot hoop. Best part is, he called that shit while the ball was still floating in the air. BOSS MOVE!
