This was NOT in NBA.com's top 10 plays of the night...

That was NASTY!!!!

I don't know!!

I confirmed it, above!

I’ve re-watched both dunks like only 60 times today. Even made my daughters watch it like 10 times each. Both were impressed, though one was done watching after the first or second time.

I love Showtime's dunks too. But how about that one where he floated sideways and put in a mid-range jumper?

The really interesting thing about this kid is that he is this crazy mix of humble and confident. His answers also tend to be a bit blunt and short but I think that's just because he doesn't overthink things. It will interesting to see how he grows in this manner.

On a side note I can't believe this kid is only 3 years older than my son.

quite confidence but humble. For guys like him the game is slower he sees things in slow motion where most rookies or young guys are overwhelmed by how fast the game is.

usually there are glimpses of greatness with young players but this kid skipped the glimpses and just showed he belongs and not only belongs but can be truly special.

also much improved on his interview skills

Yep, the dunks will not always be available, but if he masters that mid-range jumper, he can be near unstoppable. With his length and his hops, that jumper will be hard to guard when the defender has to keep him from attacking the basket as well.
