This is gross. Everyone agreed. He got a 50.

Not bad as, presumably, an appetizer to what he’s got in store for later. Looks like this one is clearly going to come down to Green’s vertical insanity vs. James White’s long-jump amazement.

UPDATE: Green missed his only other attempt — trying to dunk the ball twice — but I’ll say this was the second-best dunk of the night, after James White’s two-handed free-throw throw down.
