The dunk contest was so good, judges ran out of space for more 10s on the scoresheet

The 2016 NBA Dunk Contest was incredible. There were a handful of dunks that could have easily been the best dunk of the night, only to have an even better dunk get thrown down moments later.

To top it all off, Zach LaVine and Aaron Gordon were throwing down so many perfect 50-point dunks that the contest had to go to a dunk off. That presented an interesting problem for the judges. They were running out of room to mark their scores!

So. Many. 10s.

Let’s do that again next year, NBA. This time with bigger scoresheets.
