University of Kentucky basketball fans are going to see Nerlens Noel dunk a lot next season. And, when we say a lot, we mean a lot. His offensive skills as a whole are still under construction. But, Noel—who many think will be the first overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft—can dunk.

Hopefully, all of his dunk attempts don't look like this one, though. It took place during a pickup game last night that the Wildcats players organized as a way to say thank you to all of the UK fans who camped out to try and score tickets to UK's Big Blue Madness event, which will be held the night before the team's first practice next month. He ended up being okay, but this looks like it definitely hurt.
