It was no surprise that Atlanta Hawks rookie John Collins had an awesome dunk against the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday.
What was a surprise was that Collins had three dunks in the third quarter. His dunks came during a 17-3 run by the Hawks which helped erase a 15-point deficit held at halftime.
The most incredible dunk Collins had was with 4:05 left in the third quarter when Collins turned an inbounded pass into two points off an assist by Dennis Schroder.
