Utah Jazz guard Keyonte George posterized Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren with a tremendous slam dunk during Thursday night's NBA game at Little Caesars Arena.
It happened with just under three minutes in the second quarter as the Jazz held a 58-52 lead. George dribbled across halfcourt and saw the opportunity to drive straight to the basket, so he took it. Duren moved into the key and had defensive position, but George threw it down on top of him and made it look easy, despite a six-inch height disadvantage.
Nothing gets fans on their feet at an NBA game than a player putting their opponent on a poster with a monster jam, even if that player is on the visiting team.
George scored 23 points in 30 minutes of game action as the Jazz beat the Pistons 126-119 to break a 3-game losing streak. Duren scored 8 points and grabbed 7 rebounds in 26 minutes.
