Raptor Cory Joseph sinks an aerial five-pointer for LG ad (Video)

Raptors’ point guard Cory Joseph sinks a basket from a rooftop in Toronto’s Financial District to another rooftop in a new ad for LG Canada.

Cory Joseph managed to sink a basket 27-storeys above Adelaide St. – and what’s more remarkable, the basket was on another rooftop around 65 feet away.

The feat can be seen in a new LG ad for the LG G5 phone.

“When LG asked if I could sink a basket over Adelaide Street from one building rooftop to another – I thought they were crazy, but why not give it a try,” Joseph said in a press release on Monday. “I can’t believe I sank that basket. It was pretty windy up there but somehow I got it in. What’s even crazier is the awesome imagery you can capture on the LG G5 wide angle lens. The entire shot, from one building to another fit in. That’s 65 feet away and 27 stories over Adelaide Street!”
