Michigan State forward Adreian Payne showed off some serious hops for a big-man in the college slam dunk contest, including this beauty, widely considered the best dunk of the night.
Then, in the only fitting way to celebrate a dunk that awesome, he celebrated with an equally awesome bowling-themed celebration.
That wasn't the end of Payne's night. He also threw down two balls on the same dunk, one with a little windmill action to it.
Amazingly enough, Payne's effort wasn't even enough to get him through to the final round of the event.
