Milwaukee Bucks stud MarJon Beauchamp has had his fair share of critics throughout his fledgling NBA career. As it turns out, the 23-year-old is the type who keeps his receipts.
On Thursday against the Orlando Magic, Beauchamp threw down an absolute peach of a dunk over Jonathan Isaac as the former showcased his hops. It was also an opportunity for the 6-foot-6 small forward to call out his haters.

Beauchamp picked up a full head of steam as he found an open lane to the basket. He took off and decided to throw it down with two hands — right on Isaac’s face, that is.
After the game, the second-year Bucks forward had to send out a special message for his doubters:
“They said I couldn’t jump off 1,” he wrote in his tweet.
They said I couldn’t jump off 1 😂👿 https://t.co/YgM273WDn8

As Beauchamp indicated in his tweet, anyone who had any doubt as to whether or not he could jump with one foot just got themselves proven utterly wrong.

Beauchamp Dealing With Elbow Injury
It didn’t look like Beauchamp hurt his elbow during this particular play, but it appears that he did not come out of Thursday’s win unscathed. The former Yakima Valley Community College standout is currently dealing with a left elbow contusion, which has resulted in Milwaukee listing him on the injury report for Saturday’s game agianst the New York Knicks.
The good news is that he’s considered probable to play, which means that barring any unforeseen setbacks, Beauchamp should be ready and available for their upcoming Madison Square Garden showdown.
