Move aside, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan. There's a new high-flyer in town.
The Clippers may be known as "Lob City", but that moniker hardly applies to Hedo Turkoglu, who despite standing at 6-foot-10, had yet to dunk this season prior to Sunday's contest against the Lakers.

After the game, both head coach Doc Rivers and power forward Blake Griffin poked fun at Turkoglu's dunking prowess.
Blake on Turkoglu's dunk: "That might be the top team moment of this year. I've never seen him move that fast or jump that high."
