The video above is the best dunk of the NBA season so far. There's no debate about this. Just look at where Zach LaVine takes off, then look at how high above the ground he is at his peak. Please also consider that Alex Len is 7-foot-1 and 260 pounds.
This is as impressive as some of the stuff that the Minnesota Timberwolves guard has done in the NBA All-Star dunk contest, when you factor in the degree of difficulty and the pure audacity that it takes to try something like this in a game.
