Chase Budinger dunked over two LA Lakers players in Wednesday night’s match up between LA and Minnesota.


The Los Angeles Lakers are having a tough season. Kobe Bryant is out with a season-ending injury and their playoff hopes have been long out the window. To make matters worse, Minnesota Timberwolves guard, Chase Budinger posterized not one, but two members of their team on Wednesday night.

No crossover hesitation move was needed as Budinger received a pass from Dunk Contest Champion Zach LaVine from the wing, blowing by Laker defender, Robert Sacre to get in the lane with ease. The help came way too late from forward, Ed Davis so Budinger made them pay with this dunk.

Chase Budinger has a history of high-flying highlights as he was selected to participate in the 2012 Dunk contest. While he did end up losing, its apparent that he hasn’t forgotten anything about throwing one down with authority as he completely destroyed two Lakers defenders. I’m sure Davis and Sacre will be hearing about this later in the Locker room from their teammates.

There is nothing like posterizing two guys to get your team going.  And Budinger did just that in a highlight will be talked about for quite awhile in Minnesota. After all, their really isn’t anything else to talk about for the Timberwolves this season.
