Bulls' Troy Baxter Jr. throws down vicious alley-oop dunk in NBA Summer League

The Chicago Bulls blew out the Charlotte Hornets 99-74 in Las Vegas Summer League action on Monday night, and one play summarized how the game went.

With the Bulls up 30 in the third quarter, Chicago’s Troy Baxter Jr. brought the hammer to throw down a one-handed alley-oop dunk with authority.

That’s an incredible, powerful jam. Crazy athleticism.

Baxter went undrafted out of Morgan State before signing with the Bulls on Aug. 1, but that’s the kind of play that will open some eyes around the league.
