Midnight Madness produces some memorable moments each year, so The Dagger is chronicling the best ones from this October's lineup. If you spot something we missed, let us know here or here.
Since he had already proven at last year's Midnight Madness event that he can leap 6-foot-10 forward Curtis Washington and dunk, Georgia State's Isaiah Dennis opted to increase the degree of difficulty this year. The sophomore guard generously listed at 6 feet not only leapt over Washington but also two of his other Panthers teammates. Where does Dennis get his athleticism? Probably from his parents. His dad played football in college and his mom ran track. Georgia State has several well-known guard, from elite mid-major star R.J. Hunter, to Kentucky transfer Ryan Harrow, to Louisville transfer Kevin Ware. Dennis may not be the most well-known member of his backcourt, but with that leaping ability, he's probably worth keeping an eye on too.
