Aaron Gordon‘s 2016 Slam Dunk Contest heroics, even in a controversial loss, won’t be soon forgotten. After throwing down quite possibly the best dunk in contest history, the spotlight is definitely on him each night his Orlando Magic take the court.
That perfectly segues into last night, where Gordon caught a reverse one-handed alley-oop from Elfrid Payton that most human beings wouldn’t dare try in their wildest dreams. There was only one problem: Gordon’s Nike Hyperrev 2016 didn’t quite hold up.
The shoes ended up destroyed, ripping through the lateral side of his right shoe, something fans were able to see when Gordon made his way to the bench after the insane dunk. This sounds like a call to action, Nike. Can we get Air Gordon some proper landing gear please?
