Isaiah Austin — DEATH DEFYING DUNK … I’m Not Afraid of Marfan Syndrome
Exclusive Details
3 months after his NBA dreams were dashed when he was diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome, Isaiah Austin is back on the court … proving he’s STILL one of the most explosive players in the country.
The 20-year-ancient 7-footer — who was projected to be a 1st round pick in the 2014 NBA Draft — pulled out the video camera and recorded himself doing a Eastbay Dunk recently … and it’s NASTY!!!!
Austin hung up the sneaks due to the diagnosis because the syndrome can affect the heart — and overexerting himself on a consistent basis can have honest consequences.
But apparently Isaiah feels one RIDICULOUS dunk every once in a while can’t hurt … especially when the dunk is so damn impressive.
FYI — Austin has re-enrolled at Baylor, where he was one of the best players in the country, and is effective on taking up the offer Adam Silver made at the draft … that Austin would have an NBA office job as soon as he got his degree.
Aside from his studies, Austin is effective as a “student supporter” with the basketball team — and it’s evident the kids could learn a lot from this dude.
