  Brittney Griner of Baylor, around the :50 second mark in the video above, catches a pass, seals her defender, and dunks rather easily. Not some weak, soft, slam, either; this is a dunk that would prompt Bill Walton to say, “Throw it down Brittney Griner, throw it down!” Griner is only a freshman who dunked on ...
