Jalen Suggs may have to announce his retirement from professional sports after what went down during Friday night’s game.
Suggs and the Orlando Magic played on Friday against Matas Buzelis and the Chicago Bulls at United Center in Chicago, Ill. Unfortunately though, the basketball game quickly turned into a murder scene in the second quarter.
Off a blocked shot by his Bulls teammate Jalen Smith, Buzelis collected the loose ball with only the Magic guard Suggs standing in between him and the basket on the other end of the floor. Buzelis proceeded to attack the rim with bloodthirsty intentions and promptly dunked Suggs into an entirely different realm of consciousness altogether.
Take a look at the unreal video.

As far as poster dunks go, it does not get much purer than that. Buzelis took off a good distance away from the rim, had Suggs meet him directly and at the apex of his jump, and then violently threw down the poster slam anyway right on top of Suggs’ head.
These kinds of high-flying theatrics are not all that surprising for the 21-year-old Buzelis, who already competed in the NBA Slam Dunk Contest last season. But after the Bulls big man Smith (who ignited that entire sequence with the blocked shot) took Joel Embiid’s soul with a poster dunk of his own a few days ago, it was Buzelis’ turn on Friday to add to the Bulls’ growing list of basketball slaughters.
