Missouri basketball recruit Annor Boateng throws down nasty dunk: Look

Little Rock Central (Arkansas) standout Annor Boateng is the top prospect in the University of Missouri's recruiting class

Little Rock Central (Arkansas) senior Annor Boateng is known for putting on a show whenever he takes the floor.  

The high-flying 6-foot-5 University of Missouri signee may have outdid himself recently with one of his latest dunks.

In a game against Little Rock Southwest on Tuesday, Boateng took a pass off the backboard from teammate Luke Moore on a breakaway and threw down a one-handed hammer dunk that could go down as one of the best dunks of the year.

Little Rock Central won the conference game against visiting Little Rock Southwest 73-24.

Boateng, who was named the Gatorade Arkansas Player of the Year following his junior season, is a key piece of the Missouri Tigers' recruiting class that is ranked as one of the best in college basketball for the Class of 2024.

The top prospect in Arkansas, Boateng is ranked as the No. 25 overall prospect in the Class of 2024 by 247Sports and the No. 8 small forward prospect in his class. Rivals rates him as the No. 26 prospect overall and No. 8 shooting guard in the Class of 2024.

Boateng is the highest-rated prospect to sign with the University of Missouri since Michael Porter Jr., now with the Denver Nuggets, was the No. 2 overall recruit in the Class of 2017.
