Who knew R.J. still had these kind of hops?!?!?
It’s no secret that during the 2000s, Richard Jefferson was one of the more athletic ballers in the NBA. While Vince Carter, Kobe Bryant and Tracy McGrady were at the forefront of showcasing their acrobatic abilities at the time, Jefferson was always an under-the-radar performer – during his time across the Hudson with Jason Kidd for the Joisey Nets. Last night, Richard took fans on a trip through memory lane with a ridiculous fast break dunk over Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. Luckily for the Charlotte Hornets guard, the play was called an offensive foul, but that didn’t stop everyone in attendance and Kidd-Gilchrist’s bench from hysterically reacting to the monster finish.
Watch Richard take Michael’s soul for the night in the video clip above.
FINAL: DAL 92 | CHA 81
