The Breeze BC might be an expansion team in the Unrivaled league, but the side is flying high behind its young roster and prolific players. The player who is actually flying on the court is Dominique Malonga, who delivered the Unrivaled season 2 first dunk during a game against the Vinyl BC.
Unrivaled fans lose it as Malonga finished powerfully at the rim with a jaw-dropping slam. Her teammate Kate Martin gave her opinion on the same.
Kate Martin Expected Dunk From Dominique Malonga
The Breeze BC moved to second position in the league standings with an easy win over the Vinyl BC. The side was lethal on offense and put up a huge performance. Malonga’s eye-catching dunk stole the headlines as the player showed no mercy in her finish.
Martin, her Breeze BC teammate, was also impressed by the play as she said, “It was awesome. We see her do it with ease in practice all the time. We have been talking about when she is gonna do it for the first time in the league game. so just to see her hard work paying off — I’m really proud of her.”

Coach Quinn said it’s just the beginning for the French star, while the player herself said she wanted to do it in a real game, not just in practice. While A’ja Wilson shut down critics for female athletes not dunking in the game, maybe the Storm forward’s play will keep them quiet for some time.
