Shades of Jaylen: Jabari Bird throws down windmill dunk in Red Claws game


Remember when Jaylen Brown threw down this windmill dunk last week against the Brooklyn Nets?


Well Jabari Bird, who is currently playing with the Celtics' G-League affiliate the Maine Red Claws on a two-way contract, just did something quite similar.



Brown, who played college ball with Bird for a year at Cal Berkeley, took notice of the resemblance when Bird posted the dunk on his Instagram.


While Brown has been impressive as of late, scoring 20 or more points in each of his last three games, Bird has been playing quite well for the Red Claws, and is currently fourth on the G-League scoring ladder, averaging 25.8 points per game so far this season.

Bird spent some time in Boston earlier in the year, and should be back in green at some point as the season progresses.
