Illinois used to run backdoor / baseline alley oops to Luther when he was a freshman & sophomore, so he can definitely jump. When Coach Weber was hired at Illinois, Head was told to work on his jump shot in order to make the Illini's 3 guard motion offense better. It was great to see a bit of vintage Luther.
Watching Sports Center they just showed it but its not a top play nominee. You guys have to hear Stuart Scott's impersonation of Avery Johnson LOL.

MAAAAAN, I was at the game and when Luther finished that facial dunk, the TC damn near blew off the roof! I almost flew out my chair as a jumped out when Luther went up for that dunk. If was also funny because after that play and the one fastbreak dunk after, everyone felt that had their moneys worth and started to exit the building.
