Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon showed off his incredible dunking skills in Wednesday night’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
In the third quarter, Gordon had a shot fake that JaVale McGee fell for at the free-throw line, and Gordon threw the ball off the backboard to himself before throwing down a powerful jam.

And with just over one minute remaining in the fourth quarter, Gordon threw down another filthy dunk, while drawing a foul from McGgee in the process.

Oh, and Gordon’s efforts — 21 points (7-of-12 on FG), six rebounds —Â helped the Magic pull off a very surprising 110-109 road victory over the Lakers. The Magic entered the game as 10.5-point underdogs.
