FORT MYERS, Fla. – The City of Palms Classic dunk contest turned into the Emmitt Williams show.

The four-star forward of Independent Top 10 No. 5 IMG Academy (Bradenton, Fla.) claimed the crown thanks to a ridiculous windmill dunk over a sitting teammate. The electric slam sent the crowd at Florida SouthWestern State College into a frenzy.

He also flew over two teammates and executed another nasty windmill jam.

Terrence Hargrove of East St. Louis (Ill.) impressed the fans with a sweet one-handed 360-degree flush. Malachi Wideman of Riverview (Sarasota, Fla.) also showed out with some eye-popping slams for a freshman.
