One of the most impressive dunks that we've ever seen was the dunk that Julius "Dr. J" Ervingthrew down back in 2013 at the age of 63. It obviously wasn't the flashiest dunk of Dr. J's career. But he was 63 when he threw it down! We don't care what the dunk looks like. If you can dunk in your 60s, it's impressive.
We'll say the same thing about the dunk that Warriors assistant/future Pelicans head coach Alvin Gentry threw down during Golden State's practice yesterday afternoon. Did he need some help from the wall to throw it down? Yes. Did he just barely get the ball over the rim? Yes. Did it take two tries for him to do it? Yes. But HE'S 60! If we can make a layup when we're 60, let alone come even remotely close to dunking, we'll be thrilled.
Watch Gentry throw it down in the clip above. His players loved it—and we don't blame them one bit for going wild after he dunked.
