Donning a No. 12 Buffaloes basketball jersey and a white headband, Hunter lined up near the halfcourt line for his dunk exhibition. For one of his dunks, Hunter tossed the ball ahead of the free-throw line, sprinted toward the lob and caught it at the apex of its bounce before finishing with a powerful right-handed slam that rocked the rim.

Hunter didn’t stop there. He showed off his vertical ability, taking off past the free-throw line before unleashing a difficult between-the-legs dunk. He effortlessly switched the ball from his right hand to his left mid-flight before executing the powerful finish.
