Sam Thompson
I would like to know how Victor Oladipo is ranked no. 1 in this tournament. Doesnt have anything on Sam “Slam” Thompson.
The seeds were determined by the Big Ten tourney. Every dunker’s seed corresponds with his team’s in this year’s tourney.
You completely missed a Jared Berggren dunk. One of the best of the year.
That’s not Olidipo’s best dunk! That was his 360 against Illinois in the Big 10 Tourney!
This bracket was obviously made before the tournament started…
Indeed it was. Started before the tourney started too.
