All, I'm working on a new highlight video and I'm wondering if you have a favorite dunk by Poythress.

Any other favorite plays involving the 2015-16 roster?

Let me know. Thanks!
 
He's had a lot of great dunks, but easily the dunk against Wisconsin in the 2014 Final Four.
 
The 2 put-back dunks were brutal. I also love how he skies for the rebound on the very last play in that video. He looks like he's about 3 feet above everybody else.

I think I watched the one at 1:15 at least 10 times in a row before I continued with the rest of it.

Just filthy athletic.
 
It always seems like Alex is holding back when it comes to jumping because we've all seen him get to a level a handful of people in college basketball can reach and most of the time he's jumping with maybe 70% effort. If he went all out all the time he'd average 4 or 5 dunks a game like a rich man's quincy acey
 
My personal favorite, though I can't remember against who, was where Poy went up holding the ball underhanded like he was going to lay it up, then realized "oh wait, I'm superman," twisted his wrist around and dunked it.

Outside of that, Wisconsin. He demoralized Dekker.

I always liked this one handed dunk over a defender. I was just watching some of those Bahamas highlights and it makes me sick we didn't have Alex last season.
 
Thanks everyone! I'll try to put something together that will get the blood pumping and ready for Big Blue Madness.
