Projected first-round pick Cassius Stanley put his athleticism and vertical to the test on Thursday as the former Duke Blue Devils forward threw down a monster dunk during a workout.

Stanley, who recorded the highest vertical leap ever at Duke, has been touted as a freak athlete and a strong shooter from 3-point range. As a result of his skill set, Stanley is projected to be selected 20th in the latest Rookie Wire 2020 NBA Mock Draft.

Stanley hyped up the dunk beforehand on social media, calling it the “craziest dunk ever” that he had completed. After further review of the jam, Stanley was not wrong.

After posting the video, social media blew up with reaction to the dunk as it proved to be very impressive, something only seen in a dunk contest. His most common NBA comparison is to Zach LaVine and it is easy to see that after watching this dunk.
