John Henson is not a player afraid to get dunked on. Watch any Bucks game and you will see Henson consistently leaving his feet to try to protect the rim, which he often does. Every once in a while though, a player will throw down a great dunk on his head and on Friday night Paul Millsap was that once in a while.

That right there is a monster jam. From the power that you can hear as Millsap throws the dunk down to Henson immediately realizing that the play will not end well for him and covering his head, everything about this dunk is great.

Unfortunately for Henson these are the type of things that happen to rim protectors, and he gets picked on around the internet. In reality, Henson should be praised for not fearing the possibility of ending up on a poster like this and continuously attacking potential dunkers. This won’t be the last time Henson gets dunked on, and we here at The Friendly Bounce appreciate player like Henson who aren’t afraid. Keep jumping, John.
