GIF: Oladipo 360-dunk punctuates one-man 6-0 run
Victor Oladipo appears to be the real deal.
He entered Sunday night's game against the Brooklyn Nets averaging 12 points, five rebounds and four assists on 37 percent shooting through three games. Not bad for someone's first two NBA games.
But in the fourth quarter Sunday, Oladipo is working to show he's no ordinary rookie.
Already leading 76-61, Oladipo led the Orlando Magic on a 6-0 run all by himself. First, he scored. Next, he grabbed a defensive rebound and hit an 18-footer on the ensuing possession.
And then this, stealing the ball from Deron Williams and going the length of the floor for a 360 dunk:

The Magic now lead 84-67 with eight minutes to go. Oladipo has a game-high 19 points on 8-of-13 shooting with six rebounds and four assists.
