DeAndre Jordan’s dunk on Pistons guard Brandon Knight not only was an exclamation mark on the Clippers’ 129-97 annihilation of the Pistons Sunday, it may very well be the dunk of the year.
The dunk itself happened when Jordan went down the middle of the lane catching the ball midair dunking the ball hard with his right hand, which happens to be his off hand.
DeAndre Jordan!!!! Dayyyuummmm!! Dunk of the year #littletikeshoop

Furthermore, someone updated Knight’s Wikipedia page to say: “On March 10, 2013 Knight died in a game vs the Los Angeles Clippers. The cause of death was determined to be DeAndre Jordan.”
You have to give Knight credit for trying to contest Jordan but in the end Knight getting run over may just be another metaphor for the Pistons’ 2012-13 season.
