Aug. 5—Landon Dunk Joseph finally lived up to his nickname at age 17
"I got it on video," he said.
Joseph knew he was close to dunking, and finally one day before his junior year at Northeast High School in Oakland Park, Fla., he threw one down.
Joseph's mom gave him the nickname when he was younger. He wore a T-shirt one day that read, "Slam Dunk."
"She said my name isn't Landon anymore, that they should call me LanDunk," Joseph said.
