Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert got absolutely annihilated by Miami Heat's Derrick Jones Jr. in one play, and he was certainly itching to get even.
The 7'0″ Frenchman got his revenge with a poster dunk of his own, albeit not against Jones. Gobert and teammate Joe Ingles conspired for some good old pick-and-roll action that had the Miami defense scrambling.

After setting a nice pick, the two-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year cut hard to the cup and was a recipient of a timely pass. Seeing Meyers Leonard in his sights, Gobert went up and over his defender for a ferocious one-handed jam.
Despite getting even, Gobert and the Jazz would eventually lose grip of the close game, losing to the home team, 107-104. Gobert finished with a solid double-double of 18 points and 2o boards in 36 minutes.
The Jazz saw their five-game winning streak snapped and dropped to an 18-12 win-loss record.
