Justin Darlington’s dunk puts the best of the NBA to shame

The NBA is always looking for ways to spice up All-Star weekend. Perhaps the league should consider adding Justin Darlington, A.K.A. "Jus Fly," to its annual slam dunk contest. No he isn't an NBA player, nor is his main sport basketball, but the 6-foot-4 Toronto native has some serious hops — a 42.3 inch vertical to be exact compared to Blake Griffin's measly 37-inch vertical — and has gone viral after completing an insane dunk last Friday at the Nike+ Slam Dunk Contest in L.A.

Darlington cartwheels at the foul line, picking up the ball on his way around and then proceeds with a Vince Carter- like through-the-legs throw down. The cartwheel just makes this dunk a tad more impressive than Carter's version, which helped him to the NBA Slam Dunk title back in 2000 — when AND1 was trending.

But enough words, see the video below and judge for yourself.
