Attention: Josh Jackson is definitely worth the hype.

The five-star recruit out of Michigan, ranked No. 3 nationally by ESPN, earned himself a victory Friday night in the Under Armour Elite 24 all-star game in New York with a beautiful off-the-glass, between-the-legs slam that earned him a perfect score.

Jackson beat out Baylor commit Mark Vital, who missed his dunk in the final round.

Don't be sad, Vital, because this semifinal dunk over three human beings is pretty great.
