[WATCH] Rondo Throws Down Vicious Dunk, Bench Celebrates

Thursday night, the Sacramento Kings took down the New York Knicks in Sleep Train Arena, 99-97. But perhaps the biggest story was the dunk Rajon Rondo threw down late in the final quarter.

Rondo, the 6-foot-2 point guard is mostly known for his passing and rebounding, so you'd imagine why the Kings' bench erupted and Quincy Acy fainted after the surprising jam. According to Rondo, he hasn't dunked in about three years - not because he couldn't, but because it's not something he likes to do in games.

He should consider implementing it into his game, the fans in Sleep Train Arena may shake the building down with excitement. Hopefully "Air Rondo" will make a few more appearances this season.
