Video: Travis Hunter Hits Half-Court Shot, Shows Off Dunking Skills with Colorado CBB

Many athletes believe they could play two sports at a high level if they really dedicated themselves to it, but Travis Hunter might be one of the few who could actually pull it off.

The 2024 Heisman Trophy winner once again showed off his basketball skills during pregame warmups with the Colorado team, including making a half-court shot and executing a between-the-legs dunk (starts at 7:55 mark).

It's not a surprise that Hunter has more than enough athleticism to be an electrifying talent in basketball. There have been many highlights of him on the court during his two years at Colorado.

It's too bad Hunter didn't actually play in a game with the Buffaloes' basketball team. They could use his help, as they are 9-11 overall this season and have lost each of their first nine Big 12 games.

On a recent episode of The Travis Hunter Show, Hunter said he can play basketball, run track, long jump, high jump and 400 meters. He even joked about possibly shifting from football to baseball after seeing some of the recent high-dollar contracts that have been handed out to players like Shohei Ohtani and Juan Soto:

"I ain't gonna lie. Baseball making that money, so I might make the transition soon. Be like a Coach Prime, Deion Sanders—get my millions over there while I get my millions in the NFL. I could go out there and be a good outfielder. Steal bases—I can steal bases for you. I might not be able to hit for nothing, but I can learn that."

Until Hunter learns how to hit baseballs, though, he will most likely focus a lot of his immediate attention of getting ready for the NFL. The 21-year-old is expected to be one of the top players selected in the 2025 draft.

B/R's NFL scouting department has Hunter ranked as the No. 1 overall player in this year's draft class. He will almost certainly become the first Colorado player selected in the first round since 2011 when both Nate Solder and Jimmy Smith were taken.

Hunter won the Heisman Trophy this year after a historic season that saw him dominate on both sides of the ball. He finished with 1,258 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns on offense, along with 11 pass breakups and four interceptions as a cornerback.
