Daily Dunk: Ronnie Fields, Chi-Town Legend

There's not a lot of video of Ronnie, since he played for Farragut from 1992-96, including a year with a guy you may have heard of: Kevin Garnett. But he had a 48-inch vertical leap; keep in mind when you watch this video that he's only 6'3. A car accident his senior year derailed his career; he never played in college and has bounced around the CBA and foreign leagues despite averaging 32 ppg, 12rpg, 4apg, 4spg and 4bpg his senior year and being named a consensus first-team All-American.

A rumor has floated around for years that Vinsanity declined a one-on-one dunkoff challenge from Ronnie a while back.
