Dr. Dunkenstein

What would the Dunk Contest be without a cameo from comedian Kevin Hart?

Whether this one was an actual audible  — his first attempt here was a Karl Malome-inspired dunk — or the change-up was just part of the show Mitchell was creating, the Rookie of the Year front-runner’s decision to call in his kid sister, Jordan, and Hart and Hart’s son to run interference helped him lock-up a perfect score.

Better yet, he did so in the duds of Jazz legend, Dunk contest participant and fellow Louisville Cardinal Darrell Griffith, a.k.a. Dr. Dunkenstein.

He gets bonus points for the alley-oop off the side of the board and the family element.
