Base Set

When your blocked shots have visibly notable exit velocity, you’re doing something right on defense. Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James, already an all-time chasedown block artist, picks up a surging Collin Sexton in transition then launches his layup attempt to the scorers’ table in a January 25, 2021 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers.

LeBron James

That’s my quarterback! LeBron James sizes up a defensive rebound as it caroms off the rim then immediately throws a perfect spiral down the court to a streaking Kentavious Caldwell-Pope on January 10, 2021. James put up 18 points, seven rebounds and seven assists in the Los Angeles Lakers’ win over the Houston Rockets.

With the spin and the bucket! Minnesota Timberwolves rookie guard Anthony Edwards slices and dices the defense with a beautiful spin move before hitting the contested layup against the Detroit Pistons on December 23, 2020.

Anthony Edwards

His first career assist! Just a few minutes into his NBA journey, headline-grabbing Charlotte Hornets rookie guard LaMelo Ball notches his first assist by setting up teammate Gordon Hayward for the three pointer against the Cleveland Cavaliers on December 23, 2020. 

LaMelo Ball

When the soft touch translates to the pro game, you’re in for a show! Sacramento Kings rookie Tyrese Haliburton floats home his first career bucket from just outside the paint. The first-year guard finished with 12 points and four assists in his NBA debut against the Denver Nuggets on December 23, 2020.

Tyrese Haliburton

It’s not just the athleticism, it’s the attitude. Minnesota Timberwolves rookie Anthony Edwards shows no fear taking off from the three-point line to run up and plaster a massive slam on the Golden State Warriors on January 25, 2021.

LaMelo Ball has the length and awareness to be a problem in this league for a long time. The Charlotte Hornets rookie blows by his Oklahoma City Thunder defender on the perimeter, attacks the hoop and finishes with his off-hand for his first career bucket on December 26, 2020.

Taking it to the rack! Late in first quarter play, Philadelphia 76ers rookie point guard Tyrese Maxey glides to the rim and hits the layup off the glass for the first two points of his NBA career against the Washington Wizards on December 23, 2020.

Desmond Bane

Ja Morant has a different relationship with gravity than the rest of us. The ultra springy Memphis Grizzlies guard chases down Denver Nuggets wing Will Barton in transition then bats his layup attempt off the backboard on April 19, 2021.

Ja Morant

Jordan Poole knows his way around the rim. The Golden State Warriors guard beelines past his defender in the corner, leaps into the paint for a contested layup then goes up and under the outstretched arms of the Memphis Grizzlies’ help-side defense for two of his 26 points on March 20, 2021.

Jordan Poole

The young man has got hops! In his first NBA game, Golden State Warriors standout rookie center James Wiseman flies in for an earth-shattering two-handed hammer against the Brooklyn Nets on December 22, 2020. The second overall draft pick delivered a terrific debut performance, recording 19 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 steals.

James Wiseman

Can you even call it a heat check when the temperature is always through the roof? Golden State Warriors point guard Steph Curry continues to redefine what’s possible from beyond the arc – and on the dance floor – pulling up from the logo for a forty-footer three seconds into the shot clock in a February 6, 2021 tilt against the Dallas Mavericks. The icon finished with 11 triples and 57 total points on the night.

Steph Curry

The rookie launches the deep three! With under 5 minutes to go in the fourth quarter, rookie guard Devin Vassell of the San Antonio Spurs catches the pass and immediately rises up and drains the three ball for his first NBA basket against the Memphis Grizzlies on December 23, 2020.

Devin Vassell

Luka Doncic has never found a passing lane he couldn’t hit. The Dallas Mavericks superstar weaves through a pair of Chicago Bulls defenders before hitting teammate Willie Cauley-Stein with a perfectly placed behind-the-back pass at the hoop on January 17, 2021.

Luka Dončić

Even if you knew what Nikola Jokic was about to do next, good luck trying to stop it. The bruising Denver Nuggets center works against his defender with his back to the basket then pivots into a hook shot in a 50-point showing against the Sacramento Kings on February 6, 2021.

Nikola Jokić

When Jayson Tatum is locked in on the rim, the buckets flow freely. The Boston Celtics star steps back into a high-release three-pointer late in a matchup with the San Antonio Spurs. Tatum’s three gave his squad a lead in a game that they would ultimately proceed to win in overtime. Tatum finished the April 30, 2021 contest with a career-high 60 points.

Jayson Tatum

Steph Curry’s bag runs deep. The Golden State Warriors’ MVP candidate switches up speed and direction as he navigates through a San Antonio Spurs defense, demonstrates how effective subtle eye and ball fakes can be, then strolls into the paint for a layup on January 20, 2021.

Sacramento Kings rookie Tyrese Haliburton is a certified triple-threat. The 20-year-old guard gets his Toronto Raptors defender off his feet with a simple head fake, then takes the ball to the rack himself for a massive one-handed slam on January 29, 2021.

New league, same game. New York Knicks rookie Immanuel Quickley puts a floater high off the glass against the Indiana Pacers in his first NBA game on December 23, 2020.

Cole Anthony

Few can say they delivered their first career bucket with as much style as Tre Jones. The San Antonio Spurs rookie attacks the paint in his NBA debut against the Los Angeles Lakers on December 30, 2020, leaps up for a layup on the right side of the basket then ducks under defender Montrezl Harrell to finish with a reverse on the opposite side.

Tre Jones

Too smooth! Rookie power forward Jalen Smith of the Phoenix Suns shows off his pretty jump shot by dropping the nothing-but-net fadeaway against the Dallas Mavericks on December 23, 2020.

Jalen Smith

Few human beings can keep up with Giannis Antetokounmpo when the game goes vertical. The Milwaukee Bucks forward leaps way into the air for a soaring alley-oop pass from Khris Middleton then throws down a dunk for two of his 49 points in a May 2, 2021 win over the Brooklyn Nets.

Giannis Antetokounmpo

Master the corner three and get ready for a long career in the league. New York Knicks rookie Obi Toppin shows off his range by burying a triple for his first career bucket. Toppin finished with 9 points in his December 23, 2020 debut against the Indiana Pacers.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons takes a swing pass in the corner then cuts to the hoop and throws it down before the Oklahoma City Thunder defense can adjust. Simons put up 26 points in the January 25, 2021 matchup.

Anfernee Simons

Good luck containing James Wiseman for the next ten-plus seasons. The high-ceiling Golden State Warriors center showcases his agility and length with a well-executed spin into an enormous two-handed dunk against the Portland Trail Blazers. Wiseman put up 12 points and 11 boards in the January 3, 2021 contest.

The 2020 Defensive Player of the Year doesn’t mess around under the rim. Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo erases a bold dunk attempt from Atlanta Hawks forward De’Andre Hunter in a January 24, 2021 victory.

Take your eyes off him for a second and that’s a bucket. Chicago Bulls big man Lauri Markkanen cuts to the hoop after setting a screen for Zach LaVine then rises up to finish an alley-oop over Dallas Mavericks center Willie Cauley-Stein on January 17, 2021.

Lauri Markkanen

With the big-time baseline drive! Rookie forward Patrick Williams of the Chicago Bulls cuts to the rim and gets the tough layup to drop in traffic for his first big league bucket against the Atlanta Hawks on December 23, 2020. Williams had a stellar debut performance, dropping 16 points and grabbing 4 rebounds.

Patrick Williams

Keep draining it from a step behind the three-point line and you’ll have a long and prosperous career. Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard doesn’t hesitate to jack a deep triple against the Milwaukee Bucks in his first NBA contest on December 23, 2020.

Payton Pritchard

When Saddiq Bey sees an opportunity to score, he takes it. The Detroit Pistons rookie sizes up an open lane as his teammates set up their offense, calls for the rock then drives through the paint for a contested two-handed slam. Bey racked up 28 points and 12 boards in the March 17, 2021 win over the Toronto Raptors.

Saddiq Bey

If the defense doesn’t respect your three-ball, there’s only one thing to do. Minnesota Timberwolves rookie Jaden McDaniels gets just enough room to pull up and nail a triple against the Los Angeles Lakers on December 27, 2020.

Jaden McDaniels

Forget about Kyle Kuzma and he’ll put you on a poster. The Los Angeles Lakers forward reads the rim against the Denver Nuggets then rises up to throw down a put-back slam in a February 14, 2021 contest. Kuzma finished with 19 points and eight boards on the night.

Kyle Kuzma

Shooters with quick releases will always be a problem for opposing defenses. Milwaukee Bucks rookie Jordan Nwora cuts baseline to set up in the corner then swiftly buries the first triple of his NBA career in a December 25, 2020 contest against the Golden State Warriors.

Jordan Nwora

Vision won’t get you far if you can’t get your man the rock. Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic watches Kristaps Porzingis roll perfectly out of a screen, then reaches way out around his defender to fire a sidewinding bullet pass to the wide-open center in the paint on January 20, 2021. Doncic walked away with a cool 13-point, 12-rebound, 12-assist triple double in the win.

Knock down jumpers when the ball swings to you, and you’ll earn your teammates’ trust in no time. Boston Celtics rookie Aaron Nesmith drains a deep three in his first regular season NBA contest, an early season matchup against the Brooklyn Nets on December 25, 2020.

Aaron Nesmith

Pat Connaughton makes his job look easy but it isn’t. The Milwaukee Bucks guard runs hard up the floor to help teammate Khris Middleton lead the break, draws Denver Nuggets defender Jamal Murray toward him, then casually drops a behind-the-back pass to a trailing Giannis Antetokounmpo on March 2, 2021.

Pat Connaughton

When Robert Williams III catches the rock mid-flight, it's best to duck and cover. The Boston Celtics center rolls to the rim after an off-ball screen and unleashes an emphatic one-handed alley-oop against the Atlanta Hawks on February 17, 2021.

Robert Williams III

When the defense fears your three ball, driving comes easy. Philadelphia 76ers rookie Isaiah Joe catches his Cleveland Cavaliers defender scrambling out to the three-point line then blows by him for a soft floater high off the glass in his December 27, 2020 debut.

Kevin Durant

A well-timed backdoor cut goes a long way. Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney lures his defender out to the perimeter then blows by him into the paint and throws down an easy dunk in a January 27, 2021 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Know when to put pressure on the defense and when to kick out to the open man. Golden State Warriors rookie Nico Mannion advances against the Sacramento Kings in his NBA debut, draws the attention of multiple defenders then hits a cutting Jordan Poole out on the perimeter for three on January 4, 2021.

Nico Mannion

It’s not just the vision that sets Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic apart, it’s the skill to execute his ideas.

Green finished with an open flush against the Minnesota Timberwolves on January 5, 2021.

Put the ball in Zion Williamson’s hands and sit back to see what happens. The gifted New Orleans Pelicans forward shows off his handle navigating a Brandon Ingram screen, splits two New York Knicks defenders, then unleashes a massive dunk on April 18, 2021.
