Former Spartan Miles Bridges posterizes Clint Capela in dunk of the year

Miles Bridges is a bad man.

We all know the former Michigan State star is a crazy athlete but what he did against Clint Capela and the Hawks should be illegal on all levels.

Bridges has been putting together a nice little second half to the season with the Hornets, averaging 17.0 points, 6.2 rebounds and he’s shooting 55 percent from the floor and 52 percent from 3-point range during the month of April. He’s been on an absolute tear.

It’s pretty clear he’s turning a corner as a professional basketball player.

His athleticism is something he will never have to worry about. He turned the corner on that in high school and never looked back, dunking on everyone in his path for years.

Capela was the latest victim of one of Bridges’ dunks and it might just be the best jam in his career.

Don’t believe me? Just watch:

This just isn’t fair. I have a couple of questions, however. One, how does one person make such an incredible dunk look so easy with so much air? And two, why did Capela jump? Did he really think he had a chance to swat one of the most thunderous dunkers in the NBA?

Bridges played a whopping 41 minutes in the loss to the Hawks, scoring 23 points with seven rebounds while shooting 9-for-17 from the floor. None of his buckets were louder than this dunk which has sent waves across the NBA as fans have been talking about it for hours.

This had to be the dunk of the year.
