Air Waddell Defies Gravity - Momentarily



Meet 6-9, 228 pound Red Shirt Freshman from Wyoming, Adam Waddell. Unless he wants to use a medical red shirt next season I would strongly suggest he stops jumping from the foul line to dunk on fast breaks.

You have to give him a lot of credit here for a few reasons.

1. He actually made the dunk, despite his complete disregard for something called gravity.

2. He didn't completely shatter his spine into a million pieces, and popped right up with a smile. Being able to laugh at yourself is key when you play in front of the Laramie, Wyoming crowd all the time. I heard they are hostile, even to their own players.

3. This guy knows the difference between an earth shattering dunk and a lay-up. He knows this is the College Basketball Invitational and its time to leave it all on the court. Wait, what the hell is the College Basketball Invitational????????

It doesn't matter because Wyoming fell one Air Waddell dunk short of sending this baby to OT, losing 64-62 to basketball powerhouse Northeastern. Stay tuned, we still got three more years of Air Waddell in college, plenty more opportunities to cut the nets down in Laramie, Wyoming in future College Basketball Invitationals.
