Atlanta Hawks' Pay Tribute to Dominique Wilkins with Awesome 3D Court Projection

The Atlanta Hawks paid tribute to legend Dominique Wilkins with "'Nique Week," which included a statue, an awesome 3D court projection, and throwback jerseys.

On Thursday, the Atlanta Hawks unveiled a statue of Dominique Wilkins that is now outside Philips Arena, and last night the team put on this dope 3D court projection. It isn't very hard to put together a clip reel of someone who was known as the "Human Highlight Film," but these court projections somehow manage to make the awesome even more awesome.

Some more cool bits from 'Nique week: Larry Bird, via video played at the statue unveiling, is still an unbelievable shit-talking machine.

Larry Bird on video says of Wilkins statue: "I'm pretty sure it's not made in a defensive stance." #ATLHawks

And, for the game against the Cavs, which Atlanta won 106-97, the Hawks wore dope throwbacks:
