Arizona's Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Slips on Wide-Open Dunk Attempt

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson could have had a great highlight-reel dunk on a breakaway, but some rogue sweat on the floor caused him to slip just as he took off.

Arizona forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson picked Mike Anderson's pocket and had a clear lane for any number of highlight-reel dunk options. He could have gone with the windmill, or maybe tried a pass off the backboard to himself, or gotten nuts and tried a 360. All of those would have been pretty sweet. Unfortunately, the court moppers were asleep at the switch and missed a bit of sweat right where Hollis-Jefferson planted for his dunk and he went straight down.

It looked like he might have been hurt on the play, but after a few seconds of shame, he picked himself back up and ran back on defense. He also rebounded to score 17 points and the Wildcats beat up on the Huskies 86-62.
