POSTERIZED: Kenny Gabriel puts it in reverse

Kenny Gabriel is doing his mightiest to make us pay attention to Auburn basketball. Sure, the Tigers are 4-8 in the SEC and 14-12 overall, but they just defeated No.23 Mississippi State on Saturday night, ending a three-game losing streak.

Just look at some of Gabriel's stats: 12.3ppg, 7.9rpg, 2.4bpg and 1.7apg. But his most impressive feats don't get mentioned in the box score.

He's one of the top dunkers in the SEC and the entire country.

If you need more convincing, just peep the following video.



That's the best reverse dunk we've seen all season.

I really like Gabriel. He's one of (If not the) most under-appreciated player in the SEC. But dunks like this one should help more to make more people appreciate his work.

POSTERIZED: Kenny Gabriel gets an assist from somebody's face

We all know that Auburn's Kenny Gabriel can dunk. Against Arkansas on Saturday, the 6-foot-8 forward threw down another dandy-of-a-dunk off of a fast break.



But the best part is that the turnover came after Arkansas' Marcus Britt threw a pass to teammate Mike Sanchez, who clearly wasn't ready for the pass. The ball smacked Sanchez right in the face. Gabriel picked up the loose ball and took it to the rack with authority.

POSTERIZED: Kenny Gabriel gives us a reason to watch Auburn

We didn't find this until now, but that's probably because this dunk took place in a Auburn/LSU game (yuh-ikes) on a Saturday with 138 other games going on. So you have to forgive us that this dunk went so long unnoticed.

But still, what-a-dunk.



Kenny Gabriel's dunk will probably end-up being the lone bright spot in the Tigers season.
