Every great dunk tells a story -- and this one is perfection. The Drew League is the famous pro-am league in California that has seen ordinary dudes face off against NBA legends. This dunk from former Colorado player Shannin Sharpe might not go down as the best of the year, but it’s DEFINITELY the most humiliating.
Humiliation in sports is a funny beast. One part expectation, one part excitement and three parts of devastating defeat. Moments before getting yammed on, this poor dude had a really good block. It was excellent. Fate, cruel entity that it is, decided to have the ball bounce perfectly to Sharpe who was laying in wait to absolutely obliterate the blocker.
Life comes at you fast.
