Guy Dupuy's New Dunk Video

Over the weekend at London's Nike Midnight Madness, amateur dunk champ Guy Dupuy did this:


Never before has someone done an off-the-bounce, over someone standing, between the legs dunk. At least not on camera.

Watch Guy Dupuy in the YouTube video below for the reverse angle — it's just as spectacular.

Shaq Vs Ben Roethlisberger

New ABC reality sports show "Shaq Vs.," premiere stars NBA star Shaquille O’Neal last night. According to avclub.com, the show has Shaq as the host, who travels across the country to challenge sports professionals to a series of competitions.

And in last night’s very first episode, Shaq took on Pittsburgh Steeler quarterback and reigning Super Bowl champion Ben Roethlisberger. The challenge was to take on Ben in a quick football scrimmage and for Shaq to prove that he can beat "Big Ben," as he is known in the game.

Shaquille certainly showed that he is indeed a gifted athlete at anything he tries and seemed to pick up the steps and ball handling skills pretty quickly. Shaq certainly comes across as enthusiastic for the show.

John Wall Dunks On NBA Star Jerry Stackhouse Video

John Wall, the nation's top recruit from the class of 2009, has yet to play a game for John Calipari at Kentucky, but the incoming freshman has already drawn attention for his fantastic moves.

John Wall dunked on NBA star veteran Jerry Stackhouse at Great NC Pro-Am Summer Basketball League. Wall cruises past a defender on the perimeter and rises up on Stackhouse, who is the last remaining defender. Just as LeBron James was a step too late to prevent Xavier guard Jordan Crawford from posterizing him last month, the same fate fell upon Stackhouse at an event he helped found. Only this time - unlike LeBron's case - Stackhouse's people didn't confiscate the video. The former NBA star handled it appropriately, inbounding the ball and hustling back down the court. The public address announcer can be heard saying, "John Wall's in the building!"

The rest of college basketball will soon recognize the name -- and awe-inspiring moves.
