After waiting five long years to get back to the NBA Finals, Kevin Durant wasn’t about to hesitate when the stakes were at their highest. Back in the championship round in 2017 – his first season with the Golden State Warriors –  Durant left little room for a second consecutive Cleveland Cavaliers Finals comeback, boldly drilling a monumental bucket to take a stranglehold on Game 3 and the series. After corralling a defensive rebound in the midst of a pivotal late-game run, Durant took the ball himself and made history over LeBron James with 45 seconds remaining. The clutch shot turned a two-point deficit into a one-point lead that the Warriors would not relinquish, and Durant’s 31 points, nine rebounds, four assists and four treys secured the unforgettable June 7, 2017 victory. The Warriors would go on to win the series in five games, the first of two straight titles and Finals MVP awards for Durant.

Kevin Durant

LeBron James has an innumerable amount of iconic plays across his legendary 20-year career, yet few resonate quite like “The Block.” The Golden State Warriors won a record 73 games during the regular season and held a 3-1 series lead over James’ Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals, but the league’s all-time leading scorer brought his hometown squad back from the brink. With the deciding Game 7 tied at 89 with under two minutes to play, the King kept it deadlocked as he thwarted a Warriors transition attack by chasing down Andre Iguodala and swatting his driving layup attempt with flawless anticipation. Kyrie Irving’s 3-pointer less than a minute later gave the Cavs the lead for good and James iced the game at the foul line with 10 seconds left to deliver the city its first basketball title in franchise history. Cleveland became the first NBA team to rally from a 3-1 series deficit in the Finals, and James’ third championship ended a 52-year pro sports title drought for the city. The 19-time All-Star posted 27 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists, two steals and three blocks in the dramatic 93-89 victory on June 19, 2016 to win his third of four Finals MVP awards. 

LeBron James

Get Zion Williamson in open space and wait for the inevitable magic to blow your mind. The two-time New Orleans Pelicans All-Star got an early jump on his 2022-23 highlight reel when Jose Alvarado came away with a steal and spotted Williamson all by himself in transition. Williamson took care of the rest as he threw down a show-stopping fastbreak windmill slam against the Golden State Warriors for two of his 16 points. Williamson shot 7 for 11 and added three rebounds in his squad’s 114-105 triumph on November 4, 2022.

Zion Williamson

De’Aaron Fox and the Sacramento Kings reached plenty of peak altitudes during a resurgent 2022-23 season. The first-time All-Star took advantage of Josh Giddey’s shaky ball security as he picked the Oklahoma City Thunder guard’s pocket and traversed the court all alone en route to a spectacular windmill finish. Fox erupted for a game-high 33 points on 11 for 19 from the field while chipping in three rebounds, eight assists and two steals in Sacramento’s 124-115 road victory on February 26, 2023.

De'Aaron Fox

Scottie Barnes couldn’t believe he was so wide open, so he treated the City of Brotherly Love to an unbelievable finish. The 2022 Rookie of the Year intercepted a bad De’Anthony Melton pass and had nothing but space between himself and the basket before unleashing an awe-inspiring 360-degree throwdown. The highlight-reel dunk was part of a huge game for the talented Toronto Raptors forward, who converted 13 of his 19 shots for a game-high 29 points to pair with nine rebounds, eight assists and four steals against the Philadelphia 76ers on March 31, 2023.

Scottie Barnes

As a two-time Slam Dunk Contest champion, Zach LaVine knows a thing or two about showmanship. The two-time All-Star got a head start on offense following a Denver Nuggets miss, then hauled in an outlet pass and hammered home a full-extension tomahawk jam. The scintillating slam was part of a huge night for LaVine as he posted a game-high 29 points on 12 of 18 shooting while also mixing in five rebounds, four assists and two steals. LaVine helped hand Denver a rare home loss in the dominant 117-96 Chicago Bulls victory on March 8, 2023.

Zach LaVine

Running the pick-and-roll with LeBron James sometimes appears so easy that it might as well be a cheat code. The 19-time All-Star shares the wealth at home against the Washington Wizards, bringing the ball across halfcourt before gaining access to the lane courtesy of a helpful screen. James baits the defense into focusing on him, but instead of taking the shot himself he drops off a smooth between-the-legs bounce pass to a cutting Thomas Bryant for a two-handed throwdown. James scored a game-high 33 points while adding seven rebounds and nine assists in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 119-117 victory on December 18, 2022.

Steph Curry’s shooting and scoring abilities get their just praise — but how about some love for the way the Golden State Warriors star gets his buckets? Granted an opportunity to strike from the corner, Curry sets his sight on the rim, splitting two defenders with a smooth behind-the-back maneuver, then finishes at the cup with a layup. The four-time champion scores two of his game-high 24 points on the play while also chipping in six rebounds, 10 assists, two steals and five triples in his squad’s 111-101 win on November 18, 2022.

Steph Curry

Trailing by three points with 1.3 seconds remaining in regulation, Matt Ryan was subbed into the game with one objective — tie the ballgame. Mission accomplished for the Los Angeles Lakers newcomer. Off a perfectly-executed inbound pass from Austin Reaves, the sharpshooting Ryan, in his Top Shot debut, has just enough time to set his feet and force overtime with a corner three-pointer directly in front of the Lakers’ bench. Ryan played a critical role for the Lakers in just his sixth career game, chipping in 11 points, two rebounds, an assist and three triples in a much-needed 120-117 win over the New Orleans Pelicans on November 2, 2022.

Matt Ryan

When you’re on the court with LeBron James as your teammate, it’s only a matter of time before opportunity knocks. Following a thunderous James rejection of Paul George, Austin Reaves scoops up the loose ball and motors the other way in transition before lobbing a flawless alley-oop pass to Lonnie Walker IV, who finishes the slam to get the home crowd on its feet. Reaves had an effective 22-minute run off the bench, posting four points, four rebounds and two assists in the Los Angeles Lakers’ intra-city rivalry game against the LA Clippers on October 20, 2022.

Austin Reaves

New season, same old Damian Lillard. The six-time All-Star is already in midseason form in the early stages of his 11th season with the Portland Trail Blazers, breaking the hearts of opposing teams thanks to his impeccably clutch shooting. Against the high-powered Phoenix Suns, Lillard does what he does best, using a dizzying array of dribbles as he hunts for his shot. Multiple defenders give chase to no avail, as Lillard unleashes a 20-footer with a high degree of difficulty that finds its home in the bottom of the net. It was the 41st time in Lillard’s career that he exploded for 40 or more in a game, extinguishing the Suns with 41 points, seven rebounds and three assists in Portland’s 113-111 overtime victory on October 21, 2022.

Damian Lillard

He’s so good that he doesn’t even need his eyes to make spectacular plays. Such is life when you’re Giannis Antetokounmpo, who continues to make the impossible happen on a nightly basis. Returning from a two-game absence against the Atlanta Hawks, the Milwaukee Bucks superstar makes up for lost time by flicking a no-look over-the-shoulder dime to a waiting Bobby Portis Jr., who finishes the possession with a layup. It was another typical night at the office for the two-time MVP, who finished the November 14, 2022 game with 27 points, eight rebounds and four assists.

Giannis Antetokounmpo

Fresh off achieving a national championship in college, Christian Braun has brought an unselfish, winning style of basketball with him to the Denver Nuggets. Against the Utah Jazz, the rookie shows he’s willing to do whatever it takes to secure a victory, fearlessly stepping in front of Malik Beasley to turn a wide-open dunk into a ferocious rejection. Braun continued to make an impact off the Nuggets bench, chipping in 10 points, six rebounds, an assist and a block in Denver’s 117-101 triumph on October 28, 2022.

Christian Braun

In just his sixth professional game, Mark Williams gave the Charlotte Hornets an exciting glimpse into their future. Making his Top Shot debut, the 15th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft sends a Josh Giddey shot into the crowd with a merciless rejection at the rim. Williams shot a sparkling 7-for-7 for a career-high 17 points and 13 rebounds, along with two assists, two steals and two blocks in 21 productive minutes off the bench in his squad’s 121–113 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on December 29, 2022.

Mark Williams

Charging straight into the lane against three San Antonio Spurs defenders is not for the faint of heart — but it is for Zion Williamson. The New Orleans Pelicans All-Star forward scoops up a bounce pass on the elbow and makes his move, putting the ball on the floor and muscling his way to a layup despite spinning his way into a traffic jam underneath the basket. Williamson poured in a season-high 32 points on 14-of-18 from the field to go along with 11 rebounds and two steals in his squad’s 129-110 win on November 23, 2022.

Donovan Mitchell’s honeymoon with the Cleveland Cavaliers continued against the Los Angeles Lakers. Taking advantage of a favorable one-on-one matchup with Austin Reaves, Mitchell hits his defender with some slick dribbles before suddenly pulling up for a stepback triple that helps the Cavs pull away late in the fourth quarter. Mitchell logged his second 40-point performance of the season, posting 43 points, six rebounds, five assists and four steals in Cleveland’s 116-102 triumph on December 6, 2022.

Donovan Mitchell

Never underestimate James Harden’s ability to come up with creative new ways of making plays for his Philadelphia 76ers teammates. Back in Houston on the court he called home for parts of nine seasons, the 2018 MVP shifts into facilitator mode when he whips a low-to-the-ground bounce pass to a cutting Shake Milton, who finishes the possession with an easy layup. The 10-time All-Star managed 21 points, four rebounds, seven assists, two steals and four triples in Philly’s overtime battle against the Houston Rockets on December 5, 2022.

James Harden

One year after his breakout campaign, Jordan Poole continues to evolve offensively. Pressed into starting duty for a resting Klay Thompson, the fourth-year guard keeps the Golden State Warriors offense humming with a strong drive into the paint before dropping off a beauty of a behind-the-back no-look pass to a cutting Jonathan Kuminga. Poole’s 21 points, two rebounds, five assists and five three-pointers helped deliver the Warriors a 120-101 win over the Houston Rockets on December 3, 2022.

Jordan Poole

Scottie Barnes’ ability to impact a game on multiple fronts is what won him the NBA Rookie of the Year award. In Year 2, it’s clear that this is still very much the case. Competing against the Detroit Pistons, Barnes takes a pass in stride while driving into the lane, then drops off a slick one-handed bounce pass while airborne to a cutting Dalano Banton. Barnes’ eight points, five rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block made a major impact in Toronto’s 115-111 victory on November 14, 2022.

Jamal Murray looks like his old self again, which is bad news for the rest of the league. Against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Denver point guard uses a pick from Nikola Jokić to gain access into the lane. Met by a wall of defenders, Murray wisely passes up the shot attempt and instead opts for an acrobatic dish to his MVP teammate, who punctuates the possession with a floater. Murray produced 13 points, four rebounds, six assists and two steals in helping Denver prevail 110-99 on October 26, 2022.

Jamal Murray

In year 15, Russell Westbrook can still turn any pass on the court into an assist. The Detroit Pistons learned that the hard way as Westbrook — inbounding far away from the basket — needed less than two seconds to whip a three-quarter court laser into the hands of Lonnie Walker IV, who buries the catch-and-shoot triple to beat the halftime buzzer. Ten of Westbrook’s game-high 12 assists came in the first half, as the nine-time All-Star added 10 points and five rebounds in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 128-121 victory on November 18, 2022.

Russell Westbrook

Almost a quarter of the way into the 2022-23 season, one thing has become clear — if Jericho Sims is on the court, he’s probably going to dunk on you. The New York Knicks’ reserve center continues to be his squad’s resident alley-oop recipient, this time against the Utah Jazz as he gets teed up for a perfectly-executed lob from Immanuel Quickley. The second-year big man was strong in 25 productive minutes, making 5-of-7 field-goal attempts for 11 points, while adding 13 rebounds, two assists and a steal in the Knicks’ 118-111 road win on November 15, 2022.

Jericho Sims

Now that’s how you announce your presence to the rest of the league. A year after averaging just three points per game in less than eight minutes a night, Nick Richards has burst on to the scene for the Charlotte Hornets in the early stages of the 2022-23 season. After erupting for 19 points and 10 rebounds in the season opener, the reserve center one-ups himself against the Atlanta Hawks. Executing a flawless pick-and-roll with fellow reserve James Bouknight, Richards takes a bounce pass from his teammate and rises up for an emphatic one-handed slam. It was a perfect game for Richards, who made all nine of his field goal attempts in a 20-point, 11-rebound, two-block effort in 20 efficient minutes in Charlotte’s 126-109 win on October 23, 2022.

Nick Richards

After taking the G League by storm with his explosive scoring prowess, Jaden Hardy was ready for the big stage. The Dallas Mavericks rookie introduces himself to the New Orleans Pelicans in style, using his momentum to blow by Kira Lewis Jr. with his left hand into the lane before switching to his right and finishing with an up-and-under layup around Willy Hernangomez. Hardy matched his career-high with 15 points on 7 for 9 shooting while adding two steals in his squad’s 127-117 win on January 7, 2023.

Jaden Hardy

New season, same results for Andrew Wiggins and the Golden State Warriors. Fresh off a transformative title run a season ago, Wiggins and company are back to defend the crown. Against an overmatched Sacramento Kings squad, the 2022 All-Star shows last year’s postseason run was no fluke, stepping into a passing lane and picking off a lazy pass. Wiggins is off to the races from there, finishing the fast break with a slam en route 24 points, five rebounds, three steals and two blocks in Golden State’s 130-125 victory on October 23, 2022.

Andrew Wiggins

Kai Jones was off and running with only one thing on his mind — do something truly dazzling. The Charlotte Hornets reserve forward was only on the court for eight minutes, yet he ensured the home Washington Wizards crowd would still be talking about him long after the game ended. The second-year pro picked off a bad Kristaps Porziņģis pass with some forward momentum and was off to the races, zipping past the lone defender in his path before rotating his body in midair to land a magnificent two-handed reverse windmill slam. The unforgettable dunk was one of two buckets for Jones, who finished with four points, a rebound and an assist on November 20, 2022.

Kai Jones

Jalen Brunson’s handle is so shifty that even extremely athletic players have trouble keeping up. Jeremy Sochan puts in an admirable effort in trying to stick with the New York Knicks point guard, but Brunson’s bag of tricks proves to be too deep as he eludes the San Antonio Spurs rookie in a man-to-man matchup long enough to bury a mid-range jumper. Brunson erupted for a career-high 38 points on 17 of 27 shooting and the Knicks needed every one of them — along with seven rebounds and six assists — in the 117-114 nail-biting victory on January 4, 2023.

Jalen Brunson

Give me that! Brook Lopez has no time for Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green’s drive to the hoop, literally ripping the ball out of Green’s hands in his attempt to score and needing only one arm to do so. It was a block party for the Milwaukee Bucks’ 15-year veteran, who swatted five shots in the October 22, 2022 contest. The seven-footer did a little bit of everything for the Bucks — in addition to the five blocks, Lopez scored nine points, grabbed five rebounds, dished out two assists, grabbed two steals and sank a trio of three-pointers in Milwaukee’s runaway 125-105 victory.

Brook Lopez

The game just looks easy when Cade Cunningham is playing with confidence. The first overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft looks to be in his comfort zone with a strong drive to the basket against the Atlanta Hawks, finishing with an underhanded high-arcing scoop shot off the glass in traffic. Cunningham scored 27 of his career-high 35 points in the first half while also chipping in nine rebounds and eight assists for the Detroit Pistons on October 28, 2022.

Cade Cunningham

There’s efficiency… and then there’s Grant Williams. As his Boston Celtics opened the 2022-23 campaign defending their Eastern Conference crown, Williams brought with him some of last season’s magic. Coming off the bench against the rival Philadelphia 76ers, Williams refused to miss, pump faking Shake Milton out of his sneakers while sinking a corner three-pointer. Williams made all five of his field goal attempts — including three triples — along with a rebound and assist in Boston’s 126-117 victory on October 18, 2022.

Grant Williams

For the 20th time in his decorated career, Paul George did something most NBA players won’t sniff even once — score 40 points in a game. Against the Sacramento Kings, the seven-time All-Star enters total domination mode, taking a pass atop the key before stepping on the accelerator and hitting the defense with an unguardable spin move en route to two of his 40. The LA Clippers needed every one of them to get past the pesky Kings, as George’s 40 points, six rebounds, six assists and two steals were the difference in the 111-109 road win on October 22, 2022. The output made George the 14th active player to score 40 or more in a game at least 20 times.

Paul George

The best in the business know how to improvise on the fly — just ask Kawhi Leonard. The two-time champion and NBA Finals MVP triggers his backup plan on a strong drive to the basket, first thinking dunk before deciding on a difficult reverse layup to avoid having his attempt swatted by a trailing Kyle Kuzma. Leonard scored in a variety of ways, tallying a game-high 31 points along with nine rebounds and three steals as his LA Clippers staged a fourth-quarter rally to send the Washington Wizards to their ninth-straight loss, a 102-93 decision on December 17, 2022.

Kawhi Leonard

Ochai Agbaji relished the opportunity to show he can throw down with the best of them in his Top Shot debut. The Utah Jazz rookie guard gets a head start on the counterattack following a Memphis Grizzlies miss, receiving an outlet pass from Jordan Clarkson with only one defender standing between him and the basket. Agbaji doesn’t back down from the challenge, skying high and throwing down a highlight-reel jam. The 14th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft is playing with extreme confidence, scoring 17 points on 7 of 12 shooting on February 15, 2023.

Ochai Agbaji

Jaren Jackson Jr. made sure that it would be a happy New Year for the Memphis Grizzlies. Kicking off 2023 in style, Jackson Jr. protects the rim with vigor against the Sacramento Kings when he blocks a driving Malik Monk not once but twice. The Grizzlies’ talented fifth-year power forward made magic happen on both ends of the court, tallying 14 points, seven rebounds, two assists and three rejections in helping his squad win its third consecutive game, a 118-108 decision on January 1, 2023.

Jaren Jackson Jr.

If you didn’t know Dalano Banton’s name before, you sure do now. With his shorthanded Toronto Raptors missing three key players against the Detroit Pistons, Banton took the opportunity to introduce himself. The second-year guard was a star on both ends, first creating a steal when he picks rookie Jaden Ivey’s pocket and then capping off the possessions with an emphatic slam on the other end. Banton exploded for a career-high 27 points while also chipping in four rebounds, four assists, three steals and two blocks in Toronto’s gritty 115-111 triumph on November 14, 2022.

Dalano Banton

It’s safe to say that Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is enjoying his new surroundings in the Mile High City. It’s not difficult to understand why, given Caldwell-Pope is now playing with the Denver Nuggets and two-time MVP Nikola Jokić. Against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Jokić is confronted by a double team, forcing the gifted distributor to sling a cross-court bounce pass to Caldwell-Pope in the corner for a triple that would turn into a four-point play. The 10-year veteran was firing on all cylinders, posting 21 points, with six three-pointers, five rebounds and two assists in Denver’s 122-117 win on October 22, 2022.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope

With the Golden State Warriors playing without Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, Patrick Baldwin Jr. paid homage to his Splash Brothers teammates. The rookie forward was called on for increased minutes for the shorthanded Warriors and delivered from downtown in his Top Shot debut, draining a catch-and-shoot triple off a dump off pass from Anthony Lamb. Eight of the 10 shots Baldwin Jr. attempted were from behind the arc, converting five of them for 17 points along with three rebounds against the Brooklyn Nets on December 21, 2022.

Patrick Baldwin Jr.

Never underestimate how big of an impact fit can have on a player’s success with a team. After being waived by the Philadelphia 76ers a couple of days before the start of the season, Charles Bassey quickly found himself a new home with the San Antonio Spurs. It hasn’t taken long for the second-year reserve center to leave a lasting impression, as he shows off his hustle and defensive aptitude by chasing down George Hill of the Milwaukee Bucks and emphatically spiking his shot attempt into the hardwood. Bassey got busy in just 18 minutes, producing five points, 14 rebounds, four assists and four blocks in San Antonio’s impressive 111-93 win on November 11, 2022. 

Charles Bassey

Few gave the Oklahoma City Thunder a chance against the NBA-leading Boston Celtics, especially with leading scorer Shai Gilgeous-Alexander unavailable. But the Thunder still had Isaiah Joe, and he contributed to one of the best offensive nights in franchise history. The third-year reserve guard has found his mojo with the Thunder, blowing by Blake Griffin before taking flight and throwing down the hammer over Payton Pritchard. Joe tallied 21 points on 8 of 13 shooting off the bench to pair with four rebounds and four assists in the Thunder’s 150-117 regulation win on January 3, 2023. 

Isaiah Joe

When he’s feeling it from long range, Kevin Love is one of the most feared bench weapons in the NBA. The New York Knicks found that out the hard way, as the five-time All-Star takes a pass on the wing from Donovan Mitchell and buries a contested triple while drawing a foul. Love had a fourth quarter for the ages, connecting on five three-pointers and scoring 16 points as the Cleveland Cavaliers sank the visiting Knicks by out-scoring them by 22 points in the period. All told, Love scored 29 points in just 22 minutes on 8-for-13 from long range while adding eight rebounds in the 121-108 triumph on October 30, 2022.

Kevin Love

In James Harden’s return to Brooklyn, Joel Embiid helped his teammate pick up a win against his old squad. The Philadelphia 76ers point guard inbounded the basketball to Embiid, who decided he wanted to fire from long range as he took two dribbles backward and nailed one of Harden’s patented step-back 3-pointers. In another monster season for Embiid, the six-time All-Star overwhelmed the Brooklyn Nets with 37 points on 12 of 18 shooting and added 13 rebounds, two assists and two steals in the 101-98 victory on February 11, 2023. 

Joel Embiid

As long as it goes in it doesn’t matter how you got there. Locked in a tight battle against the Memphis Grizzlies, Marcus Smart drives into the lane before coming head-to-head with Santi Aldama. Smart absorbs a body blow that sends him toppling to the hardwood and on the way down flicks up a desperation shot that somehow finds the bottom of the net. The underrated Boston Celtics point guard produced a solid all-around game with 15 points, seven rebounds and 12 assists in his team’s hard-fought 109-106 victory on November 7, 2022.

Marcus Smart

Talk about making a first impression. In the first start of his NBA career, Santi Aldama instantly rewards the Memphis Grizzlies’ faith in his ability to fill in for the injured Jaren Jackson Jr. After showing isolated flashes as a rookie, the 21-year-old from Spain has clearly elevated his game in Year 2, putting himself in the perfect spot when a triple team envelops teammate Steven Adams. Aldama makes the New York Knicks pay for leaving him open, finishing the play with a one-handed slam, two of his 18 points to go with a career-high 11 rebounds in Memphis’ 115-112 overtime win on October 19, 2022.

Santi Aldama

After a midseason trade brought him from the Phoenix Suns to the Indiana Pacers in Feb. 2022, Jalen Smith’s scoring average more than doubled, jumping from six per game to better than 13 in 22 games. With the 2022-23 season underway, Smith is here to say there’s plenty more where that came from. Detroit Pistons rookie Jaden Ivey receives a rude awakening when he attempts to put Smith on a poster, as the Pacers big man denies Ivey with a ferocious block at the rim. Smith produced a dominant performance — 19 points, 15 rebounds and three blocks to help Indiana win its first game of the season, a 124-115 triumph on October 22, 2022.

Jalen Smith

On the 26-year anniversary of his legendary head coach’s first game with the San Antonio Spurs, 23-year-old Romeo Langford had the best game of his four-year career. Langford gives Gregg Popovich a night for both of them to remember, blowing by Tyler Herro on a baseline dribble-drive before converting an athletic left-handed layup while somehow staying inbounds. Langford scored a career-best 19 points to go with six rebounds, a steal and a block in the Spurs’ 115-111 road victory over the Miami Heat on December 10, 2022.

Romeo Langford

Bench players unafraid to take clutch shots can separate good teams from special ones, and Chris Boucher shows no fear against the Dallas Mavericks with the game on the line. With his team clinging to a one-point lead late in the fourth quarter, the sixth-year reserve forward helps the Toronto Raptors out in a big way by draining a tough fadeaway from the paint over Reggie Bullock. It was a dagger that kept the game out of reach, as Boucher’s 22-point, 13-rebound effort was crucial in Toronto’s 105-100 triumph on November 26, 2022.

Mitchell Robinson hosted a late-October block party at Madison Square Garden, and all of the Charlotte Hornets were cordially invited. Charlotte’s Jalen McDaniels decides to take a run at Robinson, driving hard to the basket only to be met at the rim by the New York Knicks center, who rejects the basketball with such force that it careens into the front row. A fired up Mitchell made all four of his field goal attempts for nine points, eight rebounds, six blocks and an assist, helping the Knicks outlast the Hornets 134-131 in the October 26, 2022 overtime battle.

Now that’s how you thread the needle. Alex Caruso doesn’t even give the defense an opportunity to set up, pushing the ball with purpose up the floor before dropping a bounce pass through the legs of a puzzled Deni Avdija to hit teammate Patrick Williams in stride for a one-handed slam. The Chicago Bulls guard kept the Washington Wizards off balance all night, tallying five points, four rebounds, nine assists and four steals in his team’s 115-111 triumph on December 7, 2022.

Playing on the road against one of the NBA’s best teams, Houston Rockets rookie TyTy Washington Jr. found himself in a sink-or-swim scenario. Washington Jr. chooses to swim in his Top Shot debut against Jaylen Brown and the Boston Celtics, winning a one-on-one battle with the two-time All-Star thanks to some shifty handles, beating Brown with a crossover on a drive into the paint before pulling up and connecting on a floater. Washington Jr. scored 10 points in 20 minutes off the bench while also grabbing five rebounds and dishing out three assists on December 27, 2022.

Even in Year 14, Wesley Matthews hasn’t lost his magic touch. The Milwaukee Bucks guard has always been a marksman from deep and has settled in as a dependable role player for a team with championship aspirations. Trailing by two with less than a minute remaining against the Philadelphia 76ers in Milwaukee’s 2022-23 opener, Matthews puts his clutch gene on display, burying a go-ahead triple with under 25 seconds remaining to silence the hostile Philly crowd. Matthews had eight points, five rebounds, two assists and a block in 20 minutes off the bench in the 90-88 win on October 20, 2022.

It appears that Damion Lee brought his clutch championship form with him to the desert. In his first game with the Phoenix Suns after a four-year run with the Golden State Warriors, Lee makes Suns fans elated that he’s on their side. Tied in the final seconds of a fourth-quarter battle, Lee takes a pass from three-time All-Star Devin Booker and makes his move, driving with determination toward the basket and draining a difficult game-winning fall-away jumper with 9.7 seconds left. Lee scored 11 points off the bench — all in the fourth quarter — to go with two rebounds and two assists in helping the Suns erase a 22-point third-quarter deficit to stun the Dallas Mavericks 107-105 on October 19, 2022.

Sometimes it pays to shoot first and ask questions later . Following a steal on the defensive end, the Brooklyn Nets push the counterattack against the Portland Trail Blazers. When Yuta Watanabe gets the ball in his hands, he hesitates for a moment before deciding to pull up from deep himself. The fifth-year forward and first-year Net connected on 5-of-7 field goals off the bench — all from behind the arc — for 20 points, seven rebounds and two assists in the November 17, 2022 victory.

Yuta Watanabe

Make a huge play on defense and put the game away with a clutch triple — all in a day’s work for Donte DiVincenzo. With his Golden State Warriors clinging to a two-point lead in the final minute, DiVincenzo strips Damian Lillard before hustling back on offense to stay ready. He doesn’t have to wait long, as the fifth-year guard pulls up for a straightaway catch-and-shoot three to bury the hopes of the Portland Trail Blazers. Filling in admirably for an absent Steph Curry, DiVincenzo’s nine points, nine rebounds, four assists, four steals and one clutch three-pointer were the catalyst in his squad’s 118-112 win on December 30, 2022.

Donte DiVincenzo

In a superstar-driven league, the Boston Celtics have one of the best ones out there. An All-Star four times all before the age of 25, Jayson Tatum kept up his high level of play against the Detroit Pistons when he beat a pair of defenders on a dribble drive to the basket. The sixth-year forward dazzled with a highlight-reel between-the-legs maneuver before he finished the play with a crossover into a running layup for two of his game-high 38 points on 15 of 24 from the field and 6 of 10 from downtown. Tatum also added nine rebounds and seven assists in the 127-109 triumph on February 15, 2023. 

Jayson Tatum

Whether he’s facilitating for his Charlotte Hornets teammates or creating the offense himself, LaMelo Ball is a dynamic playmaker with the ball in his hands. The 2022 All-Star continued turning heads against the Boston Celtics in his third season as he unleashed a slippery spin move that Sam Hauser couldn’t keep up with before finishing the possession with a step-back 3-pointer. Ball tallied 24 points and came up just short of a triple-double by adding nine rebounds and 10 assists in the February 10, 2023 Eastern Conference showdown.

LaMelo Ball

Now on his fifth team in five seasons, Isaiah Hartenstein seems to be finding a home with the New York Knicks. Playing against the Boston Celtics, Hartenstein shows off his fundamentals, crashing the boards and turning a Jalen Brunson misfire into a one-handed put-back slam right on top of a helpless opponent. In a 38-minute run for Hartenstein, the big man made five of his six field goals for 10 points, while adding 14 rebounds, an assist and a block in the November 5, 2022 Atlantic Division showdown.

Isaiah Hartenstein

After arriving via trade in Jan. 2022, a shoulder injury cut Cam Reddish’s run with the New York Knicks short after just 15 games. Now that he’s healthy again, the rest of the league better watch out. Against the Memphis Grizzlies in New York’s first game of the 2022-23 season, Reddish wastes little time reintroducing himself to the basketball world, drifting into the corner to catch a pass from Jalen Brunson and sinking a contested three-pointer with three seconds left in regulation to force overtime. Although the Knicks lost the game, the Big Apple was surely buzzing after Reddish put up 22 points, five rebounds, three steals and a block on 9-of-15 shooting off the bench in the October 19, 2022 battle.

Cam Reddish

No inbound is a given when Jose Alvarado is on the prowl. The New Orleans Pelicans reserve guard is a bundle of energy whenever he’s on the court, not to mention waiting for the offense to make a mistake that he can capitalize on. Following a made free throw by Zion Williamson, the Houston Rockets throw the ball in while expecting to begin the next possession. But Alvarado has other ideas, picking Kevin Porter Jr.’s pocket, ending up with a steal and layup in the blink of an eye. Alvarado gave a huge lift to the second unit, converting 5-of-6 field-goal attempts for 12 points, two rebounds, five assists and three steals in 20 minutes amidst a 119-106 victory on November 12, 2022.

Jose Alvarado

It’s no secret that the Brooklyn Nets have plenty of star power but the true strength of any team with lofty expectations comes from its depth. Enter Royce O’Neale, who joined the Nets after spending his first five seasons as a role player with the Utah Jazz. Clinging to a one-point lead in the waning seconds of the fourth quarter, O’Neale takes a pass from Kyrie Irving on the wing and calmly buries a 25-foot dagger to sink the Toronto Raptors and deliver Brooklyn its first victory of the 2022-23 season. O’Neale scattered seven points, four rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks in the 109-105 triumph on October 21, 2022.

Royce O'Neale

No Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jrue Holiday or Khris Middleton for the Milwaukee Bucks? No problem for Jevon Carter.. The fifth-year guard known for his defensive prowess shows he can score the ball just as well against the Oklahoma City Thunder, pump faking a defender before putting the ball on the floor and going up strong against another challenger at the rim for a hard-earned layup. Carter doubled his previous season-high point total, erupting for a career-high 36 to go along with four rebounds, a career-best 12 assists and five three-pointers in Milwaukee’s marathon 136-132 double-overtime win on November 9, 2022.

Jevon Carter

No defender is safe from ending up on a highlight reel whenever Zach LaVine has the ball in his hands. The Chicago Bulls’ two-time All-Star puts the Utah Jazz on notice, first blowing by Malik Beasley before getting Udoka Azubuike to jump out of his shoes with a deceptive pump fake that becomes an uncontested layup. LaVine’s 20 points, six rebounds and five assists were too much for the Jazz to handle as the Bulls left Salt Lake City with a 114-107 victory on November 28, 2022.

After giving the Chicago Bulls a one-point advantage in the final minutes of a close contest, Nikola Vučević was far from finished. The two-time All-Star hustles back on defense against the Washington Wizards and registers a clutch block on a layup attempt by a driving Monte Morris to preserve the lead. The Bulls would never trail again thanks to huge performances on both ends by the veteran center, who posted 25 points, 11 rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks in Chicago’s 115-111 win on December 7, 2022.

Nikola Vučević

After playing 35 bruising minutes against the Los Angeles Lakers, Jerami Grant decided that he wasn’t interested in five more. Locked in a tie game on the road in the closing seconds of the fourth quarter, Grant shows no fear when confronted by LeBron James, aggressively driving straight at the Lakers’ star before getting the go-ahead bucket to fall with three seconds left. Grant’s clutch shot — as well as his 16 points, two rebounds and an assist — earned the Portland Trail Blazers their third straight win to open the season, a thrilling 106-104 victory on October 23, 2022.

Jerami Grant

It’s difficult to lose a basketball game when a guy on your team can’t miss. When his superstar teammate fails to convert a wide-open layup, Josh Green is there to provide a spark off the Dallas Mavericks’ bench. Following a rare point-blank miss from Luka Dončić, the Mavericks maintain possession thanks to a fortuitous deflection off the offensive glass. Aiming to take advantage of the second chance, Green breaks toward the basket and gets a perfect feed in stride from Maxi Kleber before throwing down a vicious two-handed slam. The third-year guard scored 16 points — on 5-for-5 from the field, 2-for-2 from behind the arc and 4-for-4 at the stripe — to pair with five rebounds and two assists in his squad’s 96-94 win over the Brooklyn Nets on November 7, 2022.

Josh Green

A major reason for the Miami Heat’s successful run over the past two decades is its ability to find critical depth pieces to support the team’s stars. Caleb Martin is among the latest examples, as the fourth-year undrafted forward steps up in a big way against the Atlanta Hawks. Supporting the Heat without Jimmy Butler, Martin brings toughness and grit to the floor as he drifts over as a help defender to deny Onyeka Okongwu with a block from behind. Martin brought it on both ends, scoring 20 points on 8-of-12 shooting while adding nine rebounds, four assists and two steals in Miami’s 106-98 come-from-behind win on November 27, 2022.

Caleb Martin

The 2022-23 Minnesota Timberwolves were designed to win by the strength of their star-laden starting lineup — which makes the continued progression of Jaylen Nowell a most welcome surprise. Playing with raised confidence against the San Antonio Spurs, Nowell takes a pass at the top of the key and immediately turns on the jets toward the basket before taking flight and throwing down a backboard-shaking slam. The fourth-year reserve guard made a tremendous impact, tallying 23 points, four rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes off the bench in Minnesota’s 134-122 victory on October 26, 2022.

Jaylen Nowell

Haywood Highsmith and his shot dropped together. After defending a Boston Celtics three-point attempt, the Miami Heat forward uses his forward momentum to get himself into prime position on the counterattack in his Top Shot debut. When Gabe Vincent snares a defensive rebound, he looks up the floor to find Highsmith all alone and the third-year forward connects on the open triple despite a flying Celtics defender knocking him off his feet. Highsmith didn’t miss at all from downtown, connecting on all four of his treys for 15 points to go with 10 rebounds off the bench as the Heat knocked off the Celtics 98-95 on January 24, 2023.

Haywood Highsmith

The Miami Heat were playing without their top three scorers — but they still had Kyle Lowry on their side. With only seven healthy players against the Washington Wizards, the Heat needed their veteran point guard to empty the tank and he was happy to oblige. The six-time All-Star drives with determination into the lane, sidesteps a couple of defenders then rises up on the baseline to drain a 19-footer over the much taller Kristaps Porziņģis. Though they’d ultimately come up short, Lowry’s 24 points, 10 rebounds, 15 assists, two blocks and a steal kept the Heat in the fight on November 18, 2022.

Kyle Lowry

Udonis Haslem emptied the tank in his regular-season finale. The 42-year-old longtime Miami Heat big man announced his intentions to retire after 20 seasons with the same franchise — but not before putting on one final unforgettable performance. When the Heat forced a turnover against the Orlando Magic, Haslem again resembled the player who helped his squad win three titles when he threw down a glorious alley-oop off a feed from Duncan Robinson. Haslem shot 9 for 17 from the field for 24 points, becoming the first 42-year-old to ever score at least 24 points in a game. It was his highest-scoring game since 2009 and the third-highest output of his career, all in a feel-good 123-110 win on April 9, 2023.

Udonis Haslem

Not many men are capable of putting 7-foot Brook Lopez on a poster, much less someone six inches shorter than the veteran big man. Spencer Dinwiddie cares very little about height differences, as the Dallas Mavericks guard drives strong into the lane and takes flight before throwing down a ferocious one-handed dunk over the Milwaukee Bucks center. In addition to his throwdown, Dinwiddie’s night featured 15 points, four rebounds, four assists, a steal and a block on December 9, 2022.

Spencer Dinwiddie

A new year brings with it fresh opportunities to exorcize old demons. Goga Bitadze and the Indiana Pacers dropped their final 10 games of the preceding season, riding a months-long losing streak that stretched to 12 after falling in their first two games of the 2022-23 campaign. In one play, Bitadze says out with the old, in with the new as he’s set up with a perfect alley-oop from exciting rookie teammate Bennedict Mathurin, taking out his frustrations on the rim with an effortless one-handed slam against the Detroit Pistons. Bitadze had a monster performance with 14 points, 15 rebounds and four assists off the bench, helping Indiana earn that long-awaited 124-115 victory on October 22, 2022.

Goga Bitadze

When Trendon Watford ran into traffic in the paint, there was no panic — just a heads-up pass and a win to celebrate. Making his Top Shot debut, the Portland Trail Blazers’ second-year forward makes the smart play when confronted by two Washington Wizards defenders, hitting a cutting Josh Hart with a no-look pass through the back door for a layup that increases his squad’s lead to 11 with under a minute to play. Watford made a significant impact off the bench, posting 21 points on 9 of 12 shooting along with three rebounds and five assists in Portland’s 124-116 victory on February 3, 2023.

Trendon Watford

After his New York Knicks got into an early 15-point hole in the first quarter, Immanuel Quickley ensured there would be no repeat occurrence. The third-year reserve guard has a sizzling second frame against the Boston Celtics, looking for space to operate at the top of the key before handing off to Jalen Brunson. Brunson gives it right back and Quickley delivers, burying a long straightaway three-pointer — the final bucket of a 15-point quarter for Quickley, who tallied 17 points and five rebounds off the bench in helping his squad knock off the Celtics 120-117 in overtime on January 26, 2023.

Immanuel Quickley

Wendell Moore Jr. made sure to stay ready. Making his Top Shot debut, the Minnesota Timberwolves rookie was tabbed for his first career start against the Memphis Grizzlies and did not disappoint. When D’Angelo Russell found him open behind the 3-point line, Moore Jr. showed no hesitation as he buried his first professional triple in the third quarter of a tight ballgame. The 26th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft made the most of his opportunity, scoring seven points, grabbing three rebounds and dishing out two assists in Minnesota’s 109-101 win on November 30, 2022. 

Wendell Moore Jr.

When it comes to putting players in position to thrive, few teams do it better than the Miami Heat. What a find Max Strus has been, as the shooting guard has gone from undrafted free agent to a vital cog for a team with playoff aspirations. In the midst of a 20-point night on November 16, 2022, Strus shows he’s not afraid to get to the rack, racing up the court after a long inbound pass to catch the ball in stride and throw down a high-flying dunk.

Max Strus

Even in Year 15, Goran Dragić still has the magic to provide an instant offensive jolt. Now a spark plug off the bench for the Chicago Bulls, Dragić shows off his basketball IQ by catching the Charlotte Hornets’ defense napping. While preparing an inbound pass on the baseline, an observant Dragić notices Dennis Smith Jr. looking the other way, bounces the ball off his back and lays it off the glass for an easy deuce. The heads up play yielded two of Dragić’s 16 points — along with three rebounds, three assists and a block — in just 15 minutes as the Bulls prevailed 106-88 on November 2, 2022.

Goran Dragić

The offseason trade that brought Dejounte Murray to the Atlanta Hawks is off to a sizzling start. A first-time All-Star with the San Antonio Spurs during the 2021-22 campaign, Murray’s stock keeps rising as he continues to improve exponentially as a playmaker. Against the New York Knicks, Murray looks to set up the halfcourt offense before suddenly whipping a cross-court laser to DeAndre Hunter for a wide open corner triple. Murray’s elite court vision — not to mention his career-high 36 points, four rebounds, nine assists and five steals — was instrumental in toppling the New York Knicks 112-99 on November 2, 2022. 

Dejounte Murray

Acquiring Kelly Olynyk right before the 2022-23 season began is already paying major dividends for the Utah Jazz. Trailing by one late in overtime in the team’s third game of the new campaign, Olynyk grabs the inbound pass and makes his move, dribbling with determination into the lane before unfurling a game-winning driving scoop shot with three seconds remaining to sink the New Orleans Pelicans. Olynyk’s 20-point, three-rebound, five-assist effort was instrumental in the thrilling 122-121 win on October 23, 2022, not to mention keeping the Jazz a perfect 3-0 to start the season.

Kelly Olynyk

Talk about teamwork and athleticism in their finest forms. With the Washington Wizards missing their top two scorers in a home game against the Dallas Mavericks, Rui Hachimura was more than willing to step up in an all-hands-on-deck scenario. Teammate Kyle Kuzma gets the play started, gaining access to the paint with a dribble drive and spin move before he’s enveloped by three defenders. Ever the cool customer, Kuzma dumps off an opportune pass to Hachimura, who goes up, under and up again in order to get a reverse layup to fall. Hachimura produced a season-high 23 points along with eight rebounds off the bench for the shorthanded Wizards in the November 10, 2022 victory.

Rui Hachimura

Having a marksman like Seth Curry coming off your bench is practically unfair. The Brooklyn Nets guard shows off his family trade against the Portland Trail Blazers, coming around a screen and swishing a triple despite defender Anfernee Simons in his face. It was a classic night beyond the arc for Curry, who connected on 11-of-15 field goals – and 7-of-10 from downtown – for 29 points in 29 minutes of action in Brooklyn’s 111-97 victory on November 27, 2022.

Seth Curry

Eager to make an early-season impact on a slow-starting Orlando Magic squad, fifth-year center Mo Bamba takes matters into his own hands against the visiting Charlotte Hornets, using every inch of his 7-foot frame to throw down a monstrous dunk over Jalen McDaniels. It was an incredibly-efficient 17 minutes off the bench for Bamba, who made eight of his 12 shots for 19 points, along with six rebounds, an assist and three blocks in Orlando’s first win of the season on October 28, 2022.

Mo Bamba

The only thing that matched Johnny Davis’ confidence was his smoothness. The Washington Wizards rookie was a cool customer against the Denver Nuggets in his Top Shot debut, catching a pass on the perimeter before confounding the defense with a strong drive to the hole that he finished with an elusive reverse layup around Zeke Nnaji. The 10th pick in the 2022 NBA Draft posted seven points, three rebounds and a steal in a 23-minute run off the bench on March 22, 2023. 

Johnny Davis

Driving into the trenches to take on two stellar defenders isn’t easy — and that’s just the way Jimmy Butler likes it. Butler came up huge in the clutch against his former team as he converted an acrobatic reverse layup despite being sandwiched between Joel Embiid and P.J. Tucker. The clutch shot gave Butler’s Miami Heat a one-point lead with less than two minutes to play and ensured the Philadelphia 76ers would never lead again. The six-time All-Star made 9 of 14 shots for a team-high 23 points while adding 11 rebounds, nine assists and four steals in his team’s thrilling 101-99 win on February 27, 2023. 

Jimmy Butler

Chris Paul made up for lost time with style after missing the previous seven games with an injury. The 12-time All-Star gives the Phoenix Suns an instant lift upon his return to the lineup, issuing a flashy between-the-legs bounce pass to a cutting Bismack Biyombo for a well-earned layup. Now in his 18th season, Paul shows he can still fill up a box score with 22 points, six rebounds, 11 assists and three steals in helping the Suns knock off the Memphis Grizzlies 112-110 on January 22, 2023.

Chris Paul

Sometimes overshadowed by a star-studded Philadelphia 76ers lineup, Tobias Harris continues to make plays to help his team win ball games. Buoyed by the return of a healthy Joel Embiid to the lineup, Harris’ contributions go a long way against the feisty Atlanta Hawks as the 12-year veteran rises up on a catch-and-shoot three-pointer that just barely beats the shot clock buzzer. Harris deposited 24 points and grabbed 10 rebounds as his clutch double-double helped Philly outlast the Hawks 104-101 on November 28, 2022.

Tobias Harris

The up-and-coming Sacramento Kings are playing exciting basketball again, and newcomer Malik Monk is right at the center of the fun. The sixth-year guard has served as a spark plug off the Kings’ bench, and it was easy to decipher why when the Cleveland Cavaliers came to town. Thanks to an unselfish, one-handed laser pass from teammate Domantas Sabonis, Monk finds himself in the perfect spot to pull off an athletic up-and-under reverse layup despite having two defenders right on top of him. Monk’s 14 points, two rebounds and five assists were a major catalyst in Sacramento’s 127-120 win on November 9, 2022.

Malik Monk

Primarily a starter his final three seasons with the Denver Nuggets, Will Barton was a revelation off the bench in his first game with his new squad. Now a member of the Washington Wizards, the 11-year veteran wastes little time making a positive impression on his teammates. Following a steal on the defensive end, Barton leads the counterattack while surveying his options. Spotting Daniel Gafford sneaking into the paint, Barton threads the needle with an unselfish no-look dish and Gafford does the rest, putting a Pacers defender on a poster with an impressive one-handed slam. Barton debuted with 14 points, two rebounds and three assists in helping his team prevail 114-107 on October 19, 2022.

Will Barton

You don’t get to the top of the Eastern Conference standings without a little hustle thrown in along the way. Derrick White shows the Dallas Mavericks how hard he and the Boston Celtics work on the defensive end as the sixth-year guard denies Spencer Dinwiddie a throwdown with a sensational block at the rim. The Celtics have been one of the East’s most powerful squads in White’s two seasons with the team, and his 10 points and two blocks helped Boston claim a dominant 124-95 victory on January 5, 2023. 

Derrick White

Bang bang, Georges Niang! With his struggling Philadelphia 76ers off to a slow start to their season, the reserve forward does what he does best to aid his team’s quest for victory — bomb it from deep. The scorching Niang lit up the visiting Phoenix Suns for seven three-pointers in 10 tries, including this open spot up triple from the left wing that brought the home crowd to its feet. Niang’s 21 points in 27 minutes — along with four rebounds, an assist and two steals were vital in delivering the 76ers a much-needed 100-88 victory on November 7, 2022.

Georges Niang

Time was precious, so Evan Mobley put on a show all by himself. With just over five seconds remaining before halftime, the Cleveland Cavaliers big man has a lot of ground to cover as he races the length of the court in just four dribbles before finishing with a perfectly-executed Eurostep and slam around Orlando Magic rookie Paolo Banchero with one second to spare. Mobley posted 19 points of 9 of 10 from the field to go with 13 rebounds, four assists and two blocks in Cleveland’s 107-96 triumph on December 2, 2022.

Evan Mobley

Trailing by as many as 21 points is never ideal, but having a healthy Khris Middleton to utilize as a bench weapon sure is. Starring in a new role designed to keep a sore knee fresh after missing 18 games, Middleton helps the Milwaukee Bucks rally from a huge deficit at home against the LA Clippers, dribbling with purpose up the court before burying a pull-up triple to get his team within two points in the fourth quarter. Middleton played a major role in the comeback victory, scoring 16 points while grabbing seven rebounds and dishing out two assists in 20 productive minutes as the Bucks prevailed 106-105 on February 2, 2023.

Khris Middleton

What’s better than a hard-fought overtime win on the road? Doing it against the team that just traded you. After two full seasons with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Jarred Vanderbilt didn’t have to wait long to exact his revenge — now a member of the Utah Jazz, Vanderbilt and his new squad were in Minnesota for the second game of the 2022-23 season. With Mike Conley Jr. pushing the tempo in transition, Vanderbilt bides his time, drifting all alone into the paint in the perfect spot to throw down an open slam off an unselfish dish from his veteran point guard. The final two points of the game were an exclamation point for Vanderbilt, who posted four points, 14 rebounds, four assists and four steals in the thrilling 132-126 win on October 21, 2022.
