Jordan Hawkins could be the Huskies’ X-factor in March

In the first half of the Huskies’ win over Georgetown on Sunday, freshman Jordan Hawkins threw down one of the most ferocious dunks of the season. The DeMatha product and Gaithersburg, Maryland native got the ball at the extended elbow and jabbed to his left before getting into the lane and dunking the Hoyas’ Aminu Mohammed into the center of the earth.

Hawkins, the No. 59 recruit in last year’s recruiting class according to ESPN, put together one of his most complete performances of the season in the win near his hometown, scoring 11 points.
