POSTERIZED: Three Names, One Dunk

Syracuse freshman Michael Carter-Williams was highly-touted coming out of St. Andrew's School in Rhode Island. He figured to be a key contributor for the 'Cuse this season. unfortunately, the Orange feature one of the deepest rosters of the last decade, so M-C-W hasn't had a lot of opportunities to show off what he's capable.

But during Syracuse's rout of St. John's on Saturday, Carter-Williams got some playing time, and made the most of it.

Cue the footage.



I think this might be why he was so highly-coveted coming out of high school. Just imagine what it's going to be like when this kid can see the floor for more than 15-minutes a game.



But was it as good as these?

I think the Arkansas Pine Bluff-Grambling State Dunk is the best.

Really hard to say because there have been so many great dunks this year, but I've gotta say Townsend's is the best of the year. MCW's was great though. Can't wait to see him continue developing at Cuse.
