The Orlando Magic saw their season flash before their eyes when the duo of Aaron Gordon and Nikola Vucevic went down on the same night with a pair of sprained ankles back in November. While Vucevic's ailment has lasted longer than that of Gordon's, Gordon is now back in the mix and able to soar towards the rim, as evidenced during Wednesday's match-up versus the Phoenix Suns.

Gordon put on a show of Slam Dunk Contest legend back in 2016 when he and Chicago Bulls star Zach LaVine brought intrigue back to the proceedings. Gordon's electric blend of athleticism that goes along with his 6-foot-8 frame make him one of the most captivating stars in the league to watch when he takes off toward the rim.

Still just 24 years old, the Magic are set to have Gordon as a significant piece of the puzzle for the foreseeable future, and with dunks like the one he displayed Wednesday, there appears to be even more on the horizon.
