@kuarez.beehler: Gerald Green became one of the NBA's most explosive dunkers of the 2000s, winning the 2007 NBA Slam Dunk Contest with an unforgettable dunk where he blew out a candle on a cupcake placed on the rim. But behind his incredible athleticism was a childhood accident that changed his life forever: at just 11 years old, he lost most of his right ring finger when his mother's ring caught on a nail while he attempted a dunk on a makeshift basketball hoop. Despite the injury, he never gave up basketball, eventually making it to the NBA and becoming one of the league's most spectacular high-flyers. #geraldgreen #NBA #slamdunk #TikTokCampaign #basketball
