The Denver Nuggets suffered a terrible letdown in the fourth quarter against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night, losing 105-96, but JaVale McGee did dunk magnificently against Jose Calderon midway through the third quarter -- also known as the time when the Nuggets liked they could win the game.
In the video below, Raptors' guard Jose Calderon attempts a pass, but McGee swoops in and steals the ball. He runs uncontested down the court until he starts to take off from the free throw line. That's when Calderon re-enters the picture by attempting to block McGee. We all know how this ends: with Calderon on his back while sliding across the court and narrowly avoiding a collision with a camera operator and photographer.
