Watch Suns guard Eric Bledsoe dunk a lob bounced off Rajon Rondo’s head

Aug 26, 2017, 1:58 PM

Phoenix Suns guard Eric Bledsoe had a dunk this weekend that we won’t see replicated during the upcoming NBA season.

In the University of Kentucky’s Alumni Charity Game, Bledsoe caught an alley-oop pass from New Orleans Pelicans guard Rajon Rondo that Rondo bounced off his own head.

Suns guard Tyler Ulis also played, knocking down a deep three-pointer before checking out of the game. Ulis had surgery on his ankle this offseason.

Bledsoe, Ulis and Rondo were three of the many NBA players to be featured in the game. Minnesota Timberwolves big man Karl-Anthony Towns, Pelicans center DeMarcus Cousins and Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray were three former Wildcat players to also participate.

There was also the UK Legends Game that took place prior, featuring former Sun Rex Chapman. The sixth year for the event drew over 12,500 fans at Rupp Arena.
