USC Basketball: Watch Former Trojan's Epic Poster Dunk

The former Trojan came down with one of the best poster dunks of the season.

The USC Trojans campus has been the home to some great collegiate players who have gone on to have incredible NBA careers

The last three have been Isaiah Mobley and Evan Mobley, who both play for the Cleveland Cavaliers, and Onyeka Okongwu, who plays for the Atlanta Hawks. 

Okongwu has been a stalwart power forward for the Hawks, and he showcased his big size by engaging in a huge posterize dunk. 

During yesterday's showdown between the Atlanta Hawks and Sacramento Kings, Okongwu was fed the ball in the post by Dejounte Murray. Okongwu charged the basket and came down with a vicious drunk on Trey Lyles. 

The caption "Get out the way!!!" that USC posted is quite accurate. It's hard to stop a 6'10" 240 lb person from doing much of anything, let alone coming down on with the ball. 

Okongwu certainly showcased what big men can do in the NBA.
