Alabama HS Basketball Game Stopped After Dunk Brings Down Backboard & Support

A wild scene broke out Friday night when KeShawn Murphy of Ramsay High School in Birmingham, Alabama dunked and not only brought the backboard down, but he broke the support hanging from the ceiling Carver High School's gymnasium.

Murphy, who is committed to Mississippi State, is listed as a 6'10, 220-pound power forward with a seven-foot wingspan, according to 247Sports.






According to the Ramsay basketball Twitter account, the final four minutes of the game will be finished next week at Ramsay's gym. It's probably for the best since Carver's backboard and support nearly took out multiple bodies.
