Mitch Creek’s “unbelievable” dunk on Matthew Dellavedova has reverberated around the world but the South East Melbourne Phoenix star says at the time he wasn’t too sure what he had done.

NBL great Andrew Gaze said Creek’s dunk was “unbelievable” but took aim at Peatling’s “really silly” response.Creek said he had no reason to apologise for dunking as viciously as he had on Dellavedova –also said he had been dunked on “worse than that before” – and denied he had flopped when bumped by Peatling.

Creek’s teammate Izayah Le’Afa was also hit with an unsportsmanlike foul for his role in seeking retribution on Peatling.
