If you own a basketball hoop and live in the Lexington area, keep an eye out for a few Wildcats to come running into your driveway.
Nick Richards, Johnny David, Jarred Vanderbilt, PJ Washington and Kevin Knox are participating in the drive-by dunk challenge together, an internet trend that has swept the nation, and that several former Wildcats have already participated in. No one’s rims are safe around here.

With these dunks, I give it a couple hours before a rim gets broken.
Here’s some of the former Cats getting involved as well.
Gotta love the athleticism.

Outstanding product placement here by The Brow. That’s one way to get paid.
And of course, the swaggiest coach in America had to get in on the action too.

I love to see current and former Kentucky Wildcats getting in on this (and Cal). It’s one way to gain a lot of fans, and I’m sure some people love logging into Twitter to find out an NBA or college star dunked on their rim.
