Magic's Anthony Black Dunks Over Four Defenders in Berlin

Orlando Magic guard Anthony Black just delivered a dunk that has NBA fans around the world rewatching on repeat.

During Thursday's historic game in Berlin, Black launched himself over four Memphis Grizzlies defenders for a thunderous slam that sent the crowd and his teammates into a frenzy. The moment came late in the fourth quarter as Orlando mounted a fierce comeback.

The play started when Memphis star Jaren Jackson Jr. lost the ball in the paint. Orlando pushed the fast break, getting the ball to Black who had one defender directly in front and three others closing in fast.

Black didn't hesitate. He hopped through the first defender and exploded upward, finishing the dunk over all four players with 2:24 remaining in the game.

"I didn't even know it was on four people," Black said after the game. "I just saw the rim, saw the help defender. My teammates told me about it back in the huddle."

The spectacular play put Orlando up 109-107 and fueled an 11-2 run that sealed the victory. Black finished with 21 points as the Magic rallied from a 20-point deficit to win 118-111.

The game marked the NBA's first regular season matchup in Germany, making it a memorable night for basketball fans in Berlin. The crowd erupted when Black's dunk lit up the Uber Arena.

Why This Inspires

Black's fearless attack to the rim shows what happens when young athletes trust their instincts and play with confidence. The second-year guard didn't overthink the moment or back down from four defenders. He saw an opportunity and seized it.

His humility afterward makes the moment even better. While fans celebrated the highlight, Black stayed focused on the team's comeback and credited his aggressive mindset.

Paolo Banchero led Orlando with 26 points and 13 rebounds in the win. Franz Wagner added 18 points and 13 rebounds in his return from a month-long ankle injury, playing in his home country alongside his brother Moritz for the first time in over a year.

The victory marks Orlando's third win in four games as they hold sixth place in the Eastern Conference at 23-18. Sometimes the best plays come when you stop thinking and just go for it.
