Derrick Jones Jr. is known for his vertical leap, and throughout his career, has thrown down some incredible dunks, but this one was something else.

In garbage time against the Toronto Raptors, Jones basically flew off and slammed in a one-handed dunk. This dunk, if performed in the dunk contest, would probably have been a 50.

Off a less-than-perfect lob from Bam Adebayo, Derrick Jones Jr. went WAY back to pluck the ball out of the air and slam it in. In fact, he had to extend so much to get the ball, he couldn't actually dunk it in, he had to throw it in.

There are simply no words to describe this one - just watch the video, and marvel at the glory of his athleticism. It gets better each time you watch it.
