DeAndre Jordan Dunks All Over Brandon Knight


We don't normally do this at The World of Wadley, but there's no way to ignore DeAndre Jordan's dunk last night in the Los Angeles Clippers' win over the Detroit Pistons. Near the end of the first half Jordan streaked down the middle of the lane and caught an alley-oop from Chris Paul. What happened after that was an annihilation of Brandon Knight. For whatever reason, Knight jumped and attempted to block the pass, but Jordan would have none of it. With thunderous power Jordan slammed the ball home, sending Knight crashing to the floor and sending the arena into a frenzy.

Check out the little kids at the 13 second mark. The young fella on the right doesn't even know what to do with himself, but neither do the grown men on the Clips bench. Vinny Del Negro is trying his hardest to calm down Blake Griffin, but it's no use. Jordan's dunk turned every one into a little kid, if only for a moment. It blew up social media sites and it's going to be shown for quite some time.

For Knight, it's the second time he has become the victim of a ferocious move by an opponent. Less than a month ago he was all over Sportscenter after Kyrie Irving broke his ankles multiple times in the Rising Stars game and now his Wikipedia page has been edited to inform visitors that last night he died at the hands of Jordan. One thing is for sure: Brandon Knight won't be getting in the way of Lob City ever again.
