'Oh my!': Dante's poster dunk thrills Jazz fans

Aussie youngster Dante Exum showed off his athleticism towards the end of Utah's 111-88 win over Portland on Thursday AEDT.

The 21-year-old produced a massive poster dunk over the Trail Blazers' Noah Vonleh with just under three minutes left in the game.

Exum finished the game with 12 points in his 20 minutes on the court but the dunk was his moment.

The No.11 drove off a pass from compatriot Joe Ingles, jumping off his left leg - the same leg that houses his surgically repaired knee following an ACL injury in August 2015 - to rise high over Vonleh.

"This one will definitely go on Dante Exum's highlight reel," commentator Matt Harpring said.

"Just posterises Vonleh. I think he surprised him. I don't think Vonleh thought Exum could get up like that.

"This young man right here, his athleticism is back."

Boomers forward Ingles did more than just hand Exum the assist for that dunk.

He started the game, playing 32 minutes, and finished with an impressive line of 18 points, four rebounds, four assists and four steals.
