D-Leaguer's Agent Really Wants You To Know His Client Dunked On Someone Tall
Chris Roberts is a 6-foot-4 guard who has bounced around the D-League for three years since going undrafted out of Bradley in 2010. Last night, Roberts dunked all over 7-5 Will Foster of the Sioux Falls Skyforce, and his agent was awfully proud of him for it. This was the email the agent sent us at 10:01 p.m. last night:

After we didn't do anything with this hot sports take, Zavelson wrote us again. This one arrived in our inbox at 12:32 p.m. today:
From: Andrew Zavelson To: Tommy Craggs, Emma Carmichael, Tim Burke, Deadspin staff Subject: Chris Roberts - Austin Toros
I'm the agent for Chris Roberts of the Austin Toros in the D-League. Pls take a look at the following 30 second link from his game last night against Sioux Falls. Unequivocally the best, and nastiest, dunk of the year. If possible, please post on your great site! He's close to getting a 10-day call-up and the more exposure we can get for him, the better. Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Andy Zavelson
