Video: Rudy Fernandez no-look alley-oop to Kenneth Faried
This play has been overlooked, surprisingly. Probably because no star was involved.

Video: Sam Thompson’s reverse slam against USC Upstate
I don’t really know Sam personally (nor do I support anything Ohio St. does), but we both attended Whitney Young at the same time, so this has to be on here. He also made it on the SportsCenter Top 10 too. Congrats, homie.

Play of the Day – 3/27/11
Top Play: Shannon Brown dunk vs. the New Orleans Hornets
Sick switch-hands dunk by Chris Shannon Brown
Runner-up: Alexei Kovalev shootout goal vs. the Florida Panthers
Nothing spectacular here, just a nice move that fooled Florida’s goaltender.

Play of the Day – 3/16/11
Top Play: Dwyane Wade dunk on Kendrick Perkins
I may have soiled myself if that happened to me. R.I.P. Kendrick.
Runner-up: Alexander Ovechkin laser beam
Ovie used to score goals like these on a nightly basis. Maybe he’s back in form?

Play of the Day – 3/13/11
Here are yesterday’s top plays:
Top Play: Illinois High School Skills Competition Shootout Goal
Some kid from Waubonsie Valley with a sick dangle in the skills comp. I remember trying stuff like this after practice all the time.
Runner-up: Dexter Strickland dunk on Kyle Singler (charging)
When I saw this all I could think about was the similarities between Illinois’ Jereme Richmond’s dunk on Sam Thompson. What were the refs thinking here?

Play of the Day – 3/11/11
Here are yesterday’s top plays:
Top Play of the Day: Russell Westbrook Windmill Dunk
Love seeing little guys sky.
Runner-up: Blake Griffin Left-Handed Alley-oop
We see it every night from this guy. What makes this dunk more impressive is that it’s left-handed.

New Feature: Play of the Day
Everyone’s favorite part of Sportscenter is its nightly Top 10 Plays of the Day, so why not have our own Play of the Day daily feature here at CSC? As you would expect, we’ll post the best play in from any sport (as long as there is video online) and likely a runner-up. So, let’s begin:
Play of the Day: Kemba Walker’s Buzzer Beater vs. Pitt
The only thing I can think of while watching this clip: “Damn, Brittney Griner just got her ankles broken!”
Runner-up: Guy Dupuy does a between-the-legs dunk over a car
This guy’s no joke. He would own every single NBA player in the dunk contest. Just let him in next year, Mr. Stern. Please?
