"THERE ARE FAMILIES IN THE STANDS THEY CANT WITNESS A MURDER"- NBA fans are going nuclear after Donovan Mitchell baptizes Nets star with nasty dunk

Donovan Mitchell and the Cleveland Cavaliers got the job done on Tuesday night against the Brooklyn Nets. The Cavs had a 115-109 victory, improving their record to 46-28. Mitchell took care of the business and left a long-lasting impression in Brooklyn after exploding on Yuta Watanabe.

Donovan Mitchell went up for a posterizing dunk on Watanabe in the 4th quarter. With exactly 11 minutes remaining on the clock, Yuta turned the ball over to Caris LeVert. The turnover led to a Cavaliers fastbreak situation wherein LeVert dropped a dime to Mitchell, who finished the game with a rim-rattling dunk over Watanabe. Fans on social media are going crazy after witnessing the ridiculous play.
