3. Lance Stephenson was so filthy on this dunk even the Hornets announcers got mad
I’ll keep it real with everyone, I am a closet Lance Stephenson fan! Started way back to his days at the University of Cincinnati. We can all agree (Lance included) that it probably was a mistake to leave Indiana (The first time!) and come to the Hornets. His time there was a disaster. He was terrible and he was in Charlotte a grand total of 61 games!
How do I know?
He gets a technical foul for doing his air guitar after hitting a three-point shot…

After this happened, Dell Curry made a joke that “Lance did not play a lot of music around here…”
A few minutes later this happened…

"Svi Mykhailiuk grabbed the offensive rebound and saw Lance come down the lane. Malik Monk tried to stop him, but almost got his arm taken off as Lance jumped out the gym. Just listen to the crowd as he powered the ball through!"
What made me laugh was the Hornets play-by-play announcer Eric Collins going out of his way to make a point that Lance dunked only twice in his entire Hornets tenure. The tone in his voice was priceless. That’s how I know how long Lance was in Charlotte!
