Jamal Cain throws down vicious one-handed dunk through Jalen Duren in Game 4 as Magic take stunning 3-1 lead over Pistons
Jamal Cain has a serious claim for Dunk of the Postseason, and weāre only in the first round of the playoffs.
And the Detroit Pistons, who earned the top seed in the Eastern Conference, are now just a single game away from being knocked out early.
The Orlando Magic fended off the Pistons and grabbed a tight 94-88 win in Game 4 at the Kia Center on Monday night. That gave them a 3-1 lead in the series as it heads back to Detroit later on Wednesday for Game 5. If the Magic can close it out, itāll mark their first series win since 2010.
The Magic are just the sixth No. 8 seed to take a 3-1 lead over a No. 1 seed in the NBA playoffs. Of those teams, four of the last five have advanced into the next round.
Cain brought the ball up the court himself just before the midway point of the fourth quarter on Monday night, and found a lane on the outside that turned into a very clear path to the rim.
He took it, and there was nothing Jalen Duren was able to do about it.
Cain rose up and expertly threw down a right-handed dunk that sent Duren stumbling back to the ground under the rim.
The other angles of the poster are just as incredible.
Thatās a dunk that Cain, and Duren by default, is going to remember for a long time.
Cain averaged 5.4 points and two rebounds per game this season off the bench for the Magic, who converted him to a standard deal last month after signing him to a two-way contract last July.
Cainās dunk put the Magic up by four at the time. While the Pistons hung around for a while, it was that finally put them away. Bane drilled a clutch 3-pointer off the glass with just 1:16 left on the clock that pushed the lead to two possessions and finally sealed the six-point win.
The Orlando Magic won Game 4 against the Detroit Pistons with a score of 94-88.
Jamal Cain's dunk is being considered for Dunk of the Postseason, highlighting his performance in the playoffs.
The Magic's 3-1 lead means they are one win away from advancing in the playoffs, which would be their first series win since 2010.
