Logically, the NBA placed this action at the top of Saturday night’s Top 10. There is everything: defense, attack and collective play.
At the start of the third quarter against the Wizards, Desmond Bane comes to counter Spencer Dinwiddie’s dunk attempt. The Grizzlies play the transition very quickly and Jaren Jackson Jr. sends Ja Morant into the air.
It would have already been superb like that, but the playmaker adds a layer of it with a magnificent “windmill dunk”. He will explain that he had even considered passing the ball between his legs!
“Deep inside me, I celebrated this action”even confesses Taylor Jenkins for the Commercial Appeal. “In a way, I was in awe. I allowed myself a short break to recover. What an amazing sequence. “
One more action in Morant’s collection this season, now All-Star. The point guard is one of the most spectacular players in the league and he even believes that there is no better show in the NBA than him and his teammates.
“I don’t think there are many more exciting teams than us in the league”assures the star of Memphis. “I clearly find that we are number one. “
