Lagerald Vick entered Sweet 16 hoping for 360 opportunity

Kansas City, Mo. — After blowing away his teammates, the Sprint Center crowd and the NCAA Tournament-loving public with his open-court finish against Purdue Thursday night, Kansas sophomore guard Lagerald Vick described how he pulled off a 360-degree slam dunk that highlighted the Jayhawks’ 98-66 thumping of the Boilermakers.

Vick essentially called his slam hours in advance, telling teammate Carlton Bragg Jr. in the locker room beforehand he wanted to try it.

“It was kind of a before-the-game thing,” Vick said. “I talked to my teammate about it. And I just happened to be in the right spot at the right time, timed it up well. And I had the open court, so I had to get the crowd involved.”
