Climb the ladder to success, escalator style
Anthony Davis and dunks, go hand in hand. Not a game goes by where he’s not throwing down a thunderous slam or putting someone on a poster. This one was neither of those but was still crazy enough, considering how high he had to jump to get that ball.
On a play against the Philadelphia 76ers, Tyreke Evans threw up a lob in the middle of the defense and all AD had to do was soar to the basketball and bring it down with a one-handed swoop. He was literally surrounded by three Sixers defenders and none of them came close to making a play at the ball. Nobody was outplayed him on this night, as he scored a monster 32 points to go along with 10 rebounds.
Just another double double under the belt for the young fella.
FINAL: NO 99 | PHI 74
