How getting dunked on by Seventh Woods changed my life
Posted Nov 10, 2017
As I looked up into Seventh Woods’ armpits soaring high above the rim — and me — at the DKE basketball court, I knew I was toast. It was my third day at UNC, and to my freshman mind, strolling into the middle of a crowd of UNC basketball players shooting around at a frat party was a good idea. And an even better idea was to yell, “YOU CAN’T DUNK ON ME.”
