Before I write anything, watch the dunk:
Nasty, right?
Now take a look at the head shot of the dude that threw it down:
What in the blue blazes?
His name is Justin Graham and he just graduated from San Jose State where he averaged 14.2 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 4.6 apg, and 2.3 spg. He can ball. That said, the dude does not look like he should be dunking, let alone dunking on two people in the finals of a very good Pro-Am out in San Francisco.
Forget the fact that he's white, because regardless of what Woody Harrellson thinks, there are white folks out there that can dunk. Its the flowing blonde locks. When I first saw the picture I thought that Bodhi had stopped surfing and robbing banks and started looking for that rush of adrenaline from passing the ball to Adrian Oliver. This guy is the epitome of the lax bro.
Hell, Troy's first reaction to watching the dunk was "Wait, was that a girl?"
Now, I hesitate to say anything too harsh about him or his hair because there is a reason for its length. Graham suffers from vitiligo, a skin depigmentation condition that leads to a higher risk of skin cancer, on his scalp. But he seems to enjoy the playful nagging he gets from fans -- "They put Bieber's hair on me, and it was like we were brothers," Graham said in the article linked above -- especially since the shoulder length hair is much more than what's necessary for him to protect his scalp.
There also was this juicy nugget: "[A]s Graham said this, his skateboard was tucked under one arm."
Ok, then.
Bodhi it is.
(It will pain #TeamPOSTERIZED to say this, but h/t to #TeamDunkage for the video)
