NBA: Chicago Bulls Guard Kris Dunn Literally Knocked His Own Teeth Out
On Wednesday night, the Chicago Bulls put up a good fight against the defending champions, but wound up losing 119-112. However, the story of the night was what Kris Dunn wound up losing: his teeth.
Late in the fourth quarter, Dunn took a nasty spill after jamming on a wide-open fast-break. From the looks of things, he was just putting some extra mustard on the slam and slipped off the rim in an awkward spot.
