Luol Deng has had one hell of a series for the Miami Heat so far. He’s been uncharacteristically lights out from 3-point range, and has made some of the weaker defenders the Charlotte Hornets try to throw at him look silly. Tired of making the Hornets look like fools Deng looked for a new victim. He dribbled inside, ran towards the basket, and threw down one hell of a dunk over…Hassan Whiteside?

Yep, right in the wrong place at the wrong time is Heat center, Hassan Whiteside forced to take the brunt of Deng’s dunk. He’s probably not too bummed about it considering that led to two points, and a huge momentum swing, for the Heat, but considering the personality on him he’s probably not too happy about being dunked on either.
