Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside dunked hard on opposite number Serge Ibaka in his team's 106-104 loss to the Toronto Raptors.
Whiteside supplied a 16-point, 12-rebound double-double along with three blocks but could not prevent the Heat falling to a narrow defeat against the Eastern Conference leaders.
The Miami center's highlight of the night came early in the game with 5:21 remaining in the first quarter. Whiteside found himself in possession in his own half and began to dribble the ball upcourt and into Raptors' territory.
Unchallenged until he reached the three-point line, Whiteside then backed Ibaka down towards the low post before unveiling a deft spin move and rising up to power home a right-handed slam on the Raptors big man.
