Chandler Parsons slams it down on Blake Griffin

In case you have missed his games so far in this young season, former Florida Gators forward Chandler Parsons is turning some heads with the way he has started playing for the Houston Rockets. Parsons, who has played solid minutes in three of six games this year and had a career-high 24 on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers, also had an impressive put-back dunk on center Blake Griffin that has been getting some buzz. In the three games he’s seen significant time (more than 10 minutes), Parsons is averaging 9.7 points and 6.3 rebounds while shooting 54.5 percent from the field and 50.0 percent from downtown. Below is a clip of Parsons’s dunk, which concluded with a lingering stare at Griffin. There is no animosity between the two, however, as Parsons tweeted after the game that he had dinner with Griffin.
