Hoping this is very recent, that ankle looks real good.

Azzi would embarrass him!

 

[EricLA]

That was fun. At one point she faked him out and he just shrugged his shoulders. He was huge compared to her, that's for sure! Ankle looks great tho!!

One thing that is troubling is her lack of dunking ability. But I guess you can't have everything!

Can someone please identify who exactly Paige is making toast out of?

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Saw this yesterday and had mixed feelings about its reality, so I moved on. It dawns on me that the giant would be susceptible to anybody with moves and some speed.

Did some checking on the internet. I believe the player Paige is going against is 6’11” Sandro Mamukelashvili, something of a basketball nomad from Seton Hall, by way of the Georgian Republic, Italian pro league and Montverde Academy in FL.

He was drafted this year in the 2nd round, #54 overall by the Milwaukee Bucks.

It is Hunter Dickinson of Michigan.

Here’s the full training video:

I stand corrected. I should have looked more closely at the t-shirt. Both Dickinson & Mamukelashvili sport a scruffy little beard, and have a similar appearance.

I note that Dickinson decided against turning pro this year to return to MI for his sophomore season. Good move considering that he can’t even cover a girl……….

I personally don't consider a dunk a skill, just something usually related to genetics (being tall). I know a few blessed smaller people can dunk - 2 points for pushing a ball into a hole. To me now a shooting skill. In international basketball it has more value when they can knock the ball off the rim before it falls through the hole. It is more of a look at me do something cool move. Do I wish Paige could do that - sure. It would mean she has great ups to block shots and get it over a taller defender.

It isn't. The original video was posted in April.

I can't stand when people use clickbait titles on youtube for more views. That guy is not an Nba player he's a player at Michigan who was cocky and thought he was going 1st rd in Nba and then Mick Cronin and Ucla exposed him and he woulda gone undrafted and had to comeback. He and Garza have no future in the NBA, they're too slow and unathletic.

I don't know why this YouTube account always post old vid and making it like a new one

They also make it sound exclusive and new because for a day or two before they post it, they label it a "premier" (or some similar term) video and ask people to sign up to get a notification when it posts. They will repost a portion of an old video and use half the video time as self promo with a picture of Paige and a request for subscription and likes. I've called them out on it in the comments because it's crap and quite simply just click bait for their account using someone else's material.

As you can see, their user name is "Paige Bueckers UConn".

Who are you calling a girl???

I could be wrong but I think I remember seeing this clip on the Boneyard months ago......most likely before her surgery......

Dunks are boring. Nothing to do with skill. The basket height was designed for scrawny middle schoolers.

You’re just too funny, but I love it.

Tell that to @Purchase1 and @Littlemin

It will be okay, as they’ll figure out your sense of humor soon. So go easy on them.

I'm 6'0 and 170lbs and you may not like dunking but nothing, besides maybe firing a 25 ft Jumper in someone's face, beats the adrenalin rush tht you get from crashing thru to within inches of the oppositions gate and throwing it DOWN, kinda like capturing their flag...jmo.

I'm curious, have you ever dunked ? Or are you one of the people who got dunked on.
