A 5-star football recruit launched himself over three people to win a dunk contest

Top college football recruit Donovan Peoples-Jones can fly.

The 17-year-old showed off his athleticism when he attempted to dunk over three people during a dunk contest at Cass Technical High School in Detroit recently. The result was an insane display of pure skill.

The dunk gets a little tense toward the end. You start to wonder if he will come up just shy or if he might kick that last man in the line-up in the head, but all is well that ends well.

Peoples-Jones might have skill on the basketball court, but the teenager is actually 24/7 Sports' top-ranked wide receiver in the college football 2017 recruiting class. Although Peoples-Jones only recently turned 17, he already stands at 6-foot-2 and 192 pounds, according to his recruiting profile. Perhaps this latest dunk contest could raise his profile on the recruiting landscape even more.
