The NBA Slam Dunk Contest is over, and Miami Heat forward Keshad Johnson is this year's winner. However, there was a scary moment for Orlando Magic guard Jase Richardson, as he got completely laid out during one of his attempts.
Richardson, who is 20 years old, ran along the baseline to attempt his dunk. However, the ball got caught on the backboard, which led to Richardson falling and landing right on his back. Luckily, it didn't appear he had suffered any concerning injury, and he was able to get back on his feet after about three seconds.
