This dunk was a real ball buster.
Nate Hinton of the Rockets had an amazing day on Sunday … until he had his testicles stomped into oblivion following a dunk.
Hinton was on the floor laughing following a foul, while Ed Croswell of the Jazz casually dunked the ball. Croswell hung on the rim, before dropping … right onto Hinton’s nuts. It’s difficult to see whether the Jazz player noticed Hinton was laying below him, or whether he called out of him to move — but either way, life comes at you fast.
It takes some of the shine off an incredible game when you take a shot to the beans like this. Hinton is trying to make his mark and earn a spot on the Rockets roster this season, and honestly, his Sunday against the Jazz might have gone a long way to making that a reality. He finished with 27 points, on 9-of-16 shooting, including 44 percent from beyond the arc.
Just a shame about his jewels though.
