Raptors Forward Chris Boucher Had The Dunk Of The Season Last Night

Toronto Raptors forward Chris Boucher is one of the best athletes in the NBA. The 30-year-old Canadian and Oregon alum comes in at a lean 6-foot-9 and can absolutely soar.

He’s the definition of a journeyman, as his career averages are 9.1 points per game and 5.4 rebounds per contest. But, his athleticism and plus defense and at least serviceable ability to shoot the three makes him an asset to any team.

And, with the dunk contest featuring some players that many casual fans had never heard of, with winner Mac McClung coming from the G League to win the contest.

On Thursday, the NBA returned to play after the All-Star Break. And, Chris Boucher wasted no time making a monster statement.
