Phoenix Suns rookie Jalen Lecque had social media talking Saturday night after a dunk on assignment in the G League with the Northern Arizona Suns.
The undrafted guard, who has been nicknamed “Baby Westbrook” given his elite athleticism, finished with 11 points, four rebounds and two assists in the 117-113 loss to the Agua Caliente Clippers but it was his dunk that had everyone buzzing.
In the second quarter, Lecque was leading a fastbreak opportunity and found himself in a 1-on-1 situation near the foul line. Instead of making a move around the defender, Lecque loaded up and took off toward the rim.
