I don’t happen to know Tiago Splitter personally, but the San Antonio Spurs big man seems to be a nice guy. Every interview I’ve ever seen him in, he’s always respectable and congratulatory. He praises his teammates and gives loves to fans.

So I guess I shouldn’t be shocked that Tiago Splitter, being the nice guy that he is, decided to host a basketball camp in his home country of Brazil. How kind. I mean, look at him teaching them how to pass and shoot and holy crap did he just dunk on a collection of children? I think he did!

Okay, okay, maybe he didn’t put them on a poster but there’s not much more hilarious than seeing a handful of kids running after a 7 foot man who emphatically dunks on a six foot rim.

(you’ll need to scroll to the :20 second portion for the start of the good stuff)

Of course, I’d imagine the kids were more than thrilled to see an NBA player throw down a slam in person, so I’m guessing their pride wasn’t hurt too badly. But still, that was pretty good. I’m venturing to guess that would be something Tim Duncan may have recommend (or has likely done) given his hilarious dry sense of humor.

Thankfully the ball didn’t bounce out of the netting and destroy one of the kid’s faces who was giving chase.

I guess Splitter now knows the sensation LeBron James experienced when the superstar unleashed an epic throwdown during the NBA Finals.
