Gordon: My change of direction today was cool, but the dunk after that was just mediocre. It couldn’t compare to a 360° dunk.

In the NBA Cup group stage, the Nuggets defeated the Warriors 129-104 at home.

After the game, Aaron Gordon accepted an interview with reporters. When reporters compared Gordon's breakthrough dunk today with the previous 360° alley-oop, he said: "Today's was just an ordinary dunk. That cross dribble was cool and a good move. But the 360° dunk is exciting. It was simply great. My one-legged dunk was not pretty."
