It is no secret that Maryland senior Dez Wells is one of the top players in the Big Ten this season.
But, did you also know he is one of the most athletic? Need proof?
Check out the video above.
Midway through the first half, Rutgers guard Myles Mack caught the ball and squared up for a 3-point shot from the corner. Wells went flying in for the block and actually ended up hurdling Mack, who stands at 5-10, and forcing a travel.
Wells wasn't done there. With less than a minute to go in the opening half, the senior received a pass, drove baseline and threw down a thunderous one-handed slam over two Rutgers defenders.

Finally, with just over four minutes remaining in the game, Wells got a steal, went coast-to-coast and thew down a huge breakaway dunk from just inside the free throw line.
