Prior to Sunday's tip vs. Ohio State, Wisconsin's Ryan Evans was listed as questionable due to illness. Evans started despite being under the weather, and it's a good thing he did. Not only did he help No. 20 Wisconsin beat No. 13 Ohio State, the senior provided one of the best individual highlights of his career with a remarkable second-half putback. Watch the dunk now and see the Twitter reaction to it in this post.
Here are some of the tweets following Evans' slam:
I thought Ryan Evans is sick? That dunk was sick! #Badgers

The most ridiculous part of the Evans dunk was how far he had to reach back to throw that thing in. Pretty amazing. #Badgers

Ryan Evans – wow! A nice response to those who say #Badgers don't have good athletes (as are Berggren's sporadic facials).

Wow, Ryan Evans just rewarded anyone still watching Wisconsin-Ohio State. Dunk of the weekend, at minimum.

Oh my, Ryan Evans. A one-handed putback dunk. Crazy good.

And here are a couple USA TODAY Sports photos of the dunk:
