The dunker of the good dunk is Jordyn Adams, a mere teenager from Blythewood, South Carolina, whose prowess in two sports has made him a top high school prospect. But those sports are baseball and football, not the big basketball dunk competition.

Consider the implications: His poor opponent was humiliated, in a fashion worthy of a poster on a fanatic’s wall, by someone who doesn’t even “handle the rock” on a regular basis. Goddamn. Goddamn goddamn.

The reaction to the very good dunk has been tremendous and pitiless:

Just an all-around brutal shellacking.

And now, just for rub-ins, “Jordyn Adams dunk” is now the top Google search for Adams’s name, surpassing anything to do with the sports he actually plays.

Turns out that yes, indeed, it was a very good dunk.
