Jordan Crawford Is Far From a One-Dunk Wonder!



I'm sure everyone has heard the story by now. Xavier sophomore guard Jordan Crawford dunked on LeBron James in a pick up game last summer, and soon after Nike had every video camera seized that was in the building filming.

Most people (including myself) think LeBron himself had the tapes seized, as he seems to have this Diva-like attitude. LeBron couldn't take people having video evidence of him getting dunked on!



Since then the tape of the dunk has emerged on YouTube.

Crawford was made famous that day as the kid who dunked on LeBron James, but now Crawford is doing his best to get out of the shadow of that dunk.

After starting his career at Indiana where he averaged 9.7 ppg, 3.4 rpg, and 2.3 apg, Crawford transferred to Xavier. As a sophomore he is now leading the Xavier Musketeers into their Sweet 16 matchup against Kansas State.

Crawford is averaging 20.2 ppg, 4.8 rpg, and 2.9 apg for the season, but has increased his numbers for the tournament so far.

Crawford is averaging 27.5 ppg, 6 rpg, 3 apg, 1.5 spg, and 1 bpg.

If he continues this play he will get a chance to one day again meet LeBron, but this time in the NBA. One thing's for sure, LeBron will not be jumping to try to defend another one of Crawford's dunk.
