Phones and cameras quickly pointed toward Court 2 at Bloomington Jefferson on Sunday when Demarion Watson-Saulsberry raced under a deflected pass high into the air like a 6-8 wide receiver. He took one dribble before flushing the ball through the rim.
From that spectacular dunk to Braeden Carrington calmly sinking a pair of second-half three-pointers to take the lead, fans watching Grassroots Sizzle saw the AAU program that produced Jalen Suggs and Chet Holmgren go from being on the ropes to erasing a 16-point deficit for the win, improving to 14-1 this spring.
