Did you watch the NBA Slam Dunk Competition last night? No? Well, you missed the Zach LaVine show.
LaVine, who was born to be in this competition, completely destroyed the competition last night.
First, he entered to the music of Space Jam, complete with the Quad City DJs.
And then, stripping down to a ToonStars jersey, delivers on his first dunk:
It was impressive because he was the only competitor to complete his dunk on the first attempt.
UCLA IN THE BUILDIN!!!!! WE DONT NEED A 2nd TRY!!!!!

LaVine then moved to the finals against Victor Oladipo, who had no chance.
That'll do it. https://t.co/LuqW0aeeeM

Yes, Shabazz with an assist:
Most impressive part of Zach LaVine’s dunk contest was he got Shabazz Muhammad an assist.

LaVine lit up twitter last night. Yes, the guy that couldn't get enough minutes last year:
For the record, Zach LaVine averaged 24 mins/game last year for Steve Alford at #UCLA -- only one minute/game more than Alford's son, Bryce.

Out of this world athleticism by @ZachLaVine. #Bruins

Hmmm.
What did I tell yall about my boy Zach
— Bryce Alford (@balford20) February 15, 2015
Yes, how did Steve Alford react...
Steve Alford watches replay of Dunk Contest, shakes his head, takes sip of whiskey, shakes his head, chuckles to himself, shakes his head.
— Jon Gold (@TheCoolSub) February 15, 2015
We cannot wait for next year:
He will win the dunk contest every year he's in it
— Scott Quessenberry (@ScootsyQ) February 15, 2015
Especially if there's the promise of more. He didn't do this dunk but we would love to see it:
I already know Zach's last dunk is gonna be between the legs from the free throw line. I've seen him do it a few times. #UCLA
— Jarrad Page (@JarradPage44) February 15, 2015
Just imagine the possibilities.
Go Bruins.
