Can we talk about that Abdel Nader dunk?
February 29, 2016
Abdel Nader probably threw down the best dunk of Iowa State’s season against Oklahoma State. As good as the dunk was, the emotional goodbyes from seniors Nader, Jameel McKay and Georges Niang rightfully stole the show.
But that dunk was way too dirty to not talk about a little bit longer. For those who haven’t seen it yet, enjoy this vine via Alex Halsted of Scout Media:
Here’s Twitter’s reaction:

Dunk of the night?
OK State tried to draw the charge on Iowa State’s Abdel Nader. That was a mistake: https://t.co/CSYNADiWHL

That Nader dunk was the best one I’ve ever seen live in a real game. Ruined that dude’s life.

Morris on the Nader dunk: “It should be No. 1 on top 10. If not, he got snubbed. It was big time.” #Cyclones

Nader’s reaction might have been the best of all, though. After the game, Nader was asked if he was worried about getting called for a charge.
“No, I mean, if they did I didn’t care either,” Nader joked.
