A 720 Dunk?

This video is making its way around the internet, so we'd might as get it up here, too. With a hat tip to Deadspin, enjoy this eye-popping dunk.

Incidentally, I've built up Kevin Durant in my head so much that I'm expecting a couple of these next year. Just so you know.

was that a 720

or a 540, I can't decide if I'm judging from the plant foot or the body alignment.

How about a 630?

Id say it is somewhere between a 540 and 720. He definitely didn't travel also. Pretty ridiculous.

Every time...

Every time I see things like this, I realize how terrible I am at basketball. Here it is I thought I was decent at some point. Apparently my two on two games in college were crap.

Destroyer!

540 or 720...

No matter what it is the dunk is still incredible

Stones with the skill to back it up

What impresses me is that he doesn't dunk it on the first time he faces the basket.

Dude should get all the props in the world because he risked looking like the biggest ass in the world. How would this have looked if he came up 30 degrees short on his turn? He would have passed on the opportunity to dunk it only to wind up facing away from the basket with the ball in his hand.

There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't.
