Video: Xavier Henry of the LA Lakers threw this spectacular dunk last night

Jeff Withey of the New Orleans Pelicans wasn’t about to stop him and we doubt whether anyone would have for that matter. Wow.

Jeff Withey of the New Orleans Pelicans wasn’t about to stop him and we doubt whether anyone would have for that matter. Wow.

The Lakers enjoyed a 115-96 win over the Pelicans in the Staples Center last night, a game that was lit up by a spectacular contribution from Henry in the third quarter.

Receiving the ball on the three-point perimeter, Henry got it into his head that he was driving straight to the basket and that nobody was going to stop him, a mindset that proved particularly unfortunate for Withey, who was blown away as Henry slam-dunked in emphatic fashion.

He’s developing a habit at doing this type of thing, it seems, having pulled off a similar move against the Clippers a fortnight ago…
