A relatively unknown 6-foot-3 rookie point guard out of Weber State is going to have to do a lot to open people's eyes to convince the world he is a legitimate NBA player.

Like, say, throw down a vicious dunk on a defender eight inches taller than him.

Damian Lillard, the Portland Trail Blazers' top draft pick, did just that in a Las Vegas Summer League game, driving the lane and raising up over 6-foot-11 Keith Benson for a one-handed dunk. Lillard has been billed as the frontrunner for summer league MVP, and now he can also boast the best dunk of the summer so far.

Check out Lillard's rim-rattler in the video below.
