RunInRed 16,409 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Auburn basketball signee Shaq Johnson has been wowing spectators with his athletic ability all season en route to leading his Milton High School teammates to the Georgia state championship, but this weekend the future Tiger showcased his skills on national television in the American Family Insurance High School Dunk Contest.Johnson, whose resume already includes winning the Under Armour Dunk Contest last summer, showed off his impressive vertical leap with a 360 dunk in the first round and later by jumping over the heads of two members of the audience before finishing his dunk. Leaping over any two people is an impressive feat but even more impressive considering the two that Johnson jumped over were former LSU defensive tackle Michael Brockers (6-foot-6) and Michigan State star Draymond Green (6-foot-7). Johnson finished second in the contest behind North Carolina signee J.P. Tokoto. Check out the video clip below for a look at Johnson's highlight reel-worthy dunks. <iframe width="600" height="415" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/hPAexQ-bK74" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2012/04/auburn_signee_shaq_johnson_sho.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
