Most basketball fans are aware of the few time when basketball rims aren’t able to withstand the force of a an extremely powerful man slamming that ball through them. We all have seen DeAndre Jordan, Dwight Howard and Shaq (on multiple occasions) cause games to be delayed because of damage they inflicted on the rim. A little known fact is that before these guys did it, the G.O.A.T, Michael Jordan did it while playing in an exhibition game in Italy.

This is more impressive because MJ is much smaller than the big men like DeAndre, Dwight and Shaq. Jordan was still able to lower the boom inflicting pain on the rim.
