A nightmare to defend on offense, Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson is also capable of taking on the game’s brightest perimeter stars on the other end as well. Motivated to perform against the NBA’s then-reigning champions, Thompson takes on the tough task of checking Milwaukee Bucks All-Star Khris Middleton, sticking to his hip on a hesitation dribble before keeping pace and swatting away a layup attempt. Thompson was in postseason form early, putting together a scorching-hot 38-point, six-rebound, five-assist night along with eight three-pointers, a steal and a block in the 122-109 win on March 12, 2022.

Klay Thompson

When Jimmy Butler exerts his will on offense, the buckets add up. Dead-set on carving a path to the hoop, the Miami Heat swingman shakes his defender in the corner, penetrates into the paint against a lively help-side defender then banks home an off-balanced scoop shot while hitting the deck for an and-1. Butler racked up 32 points, 10 boards and five assists on 12-of-19 shooting in the October 29, 2021 victory over the Charlotte Hornets.

Jimmy Butler

Put together spectacular performances against the Los Angeles Lakers, and there will always be a special place for you in Boston Celtics history. Hunting down an errant pass, All-Star forward Jayson Tatum takes full advantage of the opportunity, first by attacking a passing lane, then reeling off a pair of crafty dribble moves to gather his way into a fastbreak slam. With all eyes watching on November 19, 2021, Tatum dropped the star-studded rivals with an efficient 37 points, 11 boards, four triples and three steals.

Jayson Tatum

As swift as his family name, De’Aaron Fox can get anywhere on the basketball court in the blink of an eye. Facing a mismatched big man on the perimeter, the ever-slick Sacramento Kings guard loses his check with a jab step before darting over in the opposite direction and stepping back into an untouchable left-handed triple. Fox put up 26 points in the February 14, 2022 contest.

De'Aaron Fox

Get stuck defending Jalen Brunson in a one-on-one situation and you better have help on deck. As the Phoenix Suns learned, sometimes even that isn't enough. Using a quick first step against an opposing big, Brunson keeps his intentions unknown until the last moment, faking a left-handed layup attempt in order to set up a teammate in the deep corner with a difficult assist. Without star teammate Luka Doncic in the lineup, Brunson stepped up his offensive attack admirably, finishing with 18 points, nine rebounds, nine assists and two three-pointers on November 17, 2021.

Jalen Brunson

At home or on the road, few get the crowd on their feet like Zach LaVine. Seizing the opportunity to attack a gap in the Denver Nuggets defense, the Chicago Bulls wing slashes his way into the paint, avoids multiple swipe attempts and finishes hard at the rack to the delight of an embedded group of fans in enemy territory. LaVine finished the November 19, 2021 victory with 36 points, five boards, four assists.

Zach LaVine

No matter the age, situation, or defensive coverage, Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James makes the game of basketball look effortless. James showcases his world-class athleticism by sneaking backdoor on a cut, turning teammate Malik Monk’s lob into a reverse alley-oop slam to send the crowd into a frenzy. James racked up a 30-point, 12-rebound, five-assist performance on January 19, 2022.

LeBron James

Scottie Barnes is a problem. The Toronto Raptors rookie flashes his do-it-all talent in this possession, taking his defender off the dribble, getting to his spot inside the paint and floating a lefty finish that finds the bottom of the net. Barnes finished with 12 points and nine boards in his NBA debut in the October 20, 2021 contest.

Scottie Barnes

The pressure of your first NBA bucket can be immense — especially when you’re the first overall pick. Detroit Pistons 2021 draftee Cade Cunningham catches a pass at the arc and immediately blows by his defender and through the lane to lay one in with his left. Detroit walked away with the win in the rookie’s NBA debut on October 30, 2021.

Cade Cunningham

In one of the first Moments to be selected by the community in Top Shot history, Evan Mobley shows off his multi-dimensional skill set, which has Cavs fans rightfully excited for the future. The 7-footer has a knack for finishing uncanny plays - Mobley makes a strong gather off a Darius Garland dish and hangs through contact to finish his first career and-one.

Evan Mobley

There are three-point shooters who change games, and three-point shooters who change the game. Steph Curry is definitively the latter. In a home opener to kick off another potential MVP season, the Golden State Warriors guard pushes the ball up the court and heaves it to a teammate in the corner. Curry then chases his own pass and calls for the ball back to sink a high-flying, catch-and-shoot triple. The seven-time All-Star hit his first 10 field goals of the night on October 21, 2021, while pouring in 25 of his 45 points in the first quarter alone.

Steph Curry

There’s a bright future for rookies with elite creativity on the court. In his NBA debut with the Houston Rockets, first-year guard Jalen Green sprints to catch a pass near the perimeter and continues toward the hoop as several defenders mark him. Meeting Minnesota Timberwolves star center Karl-Anthony Towns at the rim, Green goes up and under in midair for an acrobatic reverse layup - the first bucket of his career - on October 20, 2021.

Jalen Green

Just weeks into his NBA career, Josh Giddey has NBA fans and superstars alike buzzing about his movement of the ball. In his first regular season game with the Oklahoma City Thunder, the rook demonstrates masterful handles, simultaneously losing his defender and drawing two more before floating the rock to a teammate for a layup. In addition to his smooth maneuvers on the court, Giddey locked in 10 rebounds in his debut on October 20, 2021.

Josh Giddey

One surefire way to know you’ve got a talented prospect on your hands? They don’t shy away from battles against the game’s biggest stars. Creating a switch in a pick-and-roll, Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham works his handle, taking the league’s reigning MVP for a ride with a sharp behind-the-back before finishing the play with a three-point bucket. Against a top-tier Denver Nuggets team, Cunningham showed why he was the No. 1 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, finishing with 34 points on 14-of-26 shooting, adding eight rebounds, eight assists, four blocks and two steals on January 25, 2022.

Making an impact on a playoff-hopeful squad is no easy feat for a rookie — just don’t tell that to Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga. In his NBA debut, the 7th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, catches a behind-the-back bounce pass from teammate Juan Toscano-Anderson and steps back behind the arc to launch a confident three for his first-career bucket. Kuminga walked away with a Warriors win and the game ball on October 30, 2021.

Jonathan Kuminga

There’s nothing quite like that first-ever bucket in the NBA. For Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves, that moment required a little creativity. Here, against the Phoenix Suns, Reaves punishes an overaggressive closeout before snaking his way into the middle of the lane for a high-arcing leaner over the outstretched arms of a defender. Reaves was efficient, scoring eight points in just 12 minutes in his debut game on October 22, 2021.

Austin Reaves

Though only a rookie, Moses Moody is fearless in his attack. Despite a hard close out by All-Star Anthony Davis, Moody turned the tables with a strong baseline drive en route to a layup for his first NBA points.

Moses Moody

Franz Wagner can throw it down, as proven early and often in his young career. The Orlando Magic rookie catches a pass outside the arc and battles his way to the cup for a thunderous one-handed slam. Wagner went for 12 points in his NBA debut on October 20, 2021.

Franz Wagner

One of the game’s great competitors, there’s no challenge too lofty for Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard. Rotating over to tag a rolling Chicago Bulls big with a major size advantage, Lillard goes vertical, meeting him at the summit for a gritty block. The six-time All-Star brought the magic on both ends, including late-game buckets to help knock off the red-hot Bulls for a 112-107 win on November 17, 2021. In all, he finished with 22 points, 10 assists, four rebounds, three three-pointers, a steal and a block.

Damian Lillard

Leave a rookie wide open in the paint and that decision just might blow up in your face. Houston Rockets first-year big man Alperen Şengün follows a teammate’s high-flying three attempt and, unguarded, levitates to emphatically jam it home as it bounces off the rim. Şengün grabbed six boards to go along with 11 points in his NBA debut on October 20, 2021.

Alperen Şengün

In one of the first Moments to be selected by the community in Top Shot history, Jalen Suggs shows that he knows how to create a clean look for himself. The former high school quarterback turned top-5 NBA draft pick wards off Dejounte Murray with a devastating behind-the-back dribble and pulls-up into a silky smooth trey.

Jalen Suggs

Luka Dončić coming off of a pick-and-roll is the last thing you want to see when playing the Dallas Mavericks. In a play typically saved for All-Star weekend, Dončić freezes the defense with a behind-the-back combo straight into a cross-court pass, finding Kristaps Porzingis for a crucial three-pointer on the left wing. Dončić led the way with 26 points, 14 assists and seven rebounds during the Mavericks’ 116-106 triumph over the Houston Rockets on October 26, 2021.

Luka Dončić

Can't stop him, can only hope to contain him! Minnesota has all hands on deck trying to deter reigning NBA Finals MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, who instead takes only a few motions to gather, hang & hammer home his own miss.

Giannis Antetokounmpo

The ability to make tough shots cannot be taught. Denver Nuggets rookie Bones Hyland shows no fear in going 1-on-1 with his defender and puts on a series of moves, hesitations and fakes. Despite stout defense, Hyland still converts a leaning, one-handed fadeaway going left. That’s tough. The bucket counted for two of Hyland’s seven points off the bench in his NBA debut on October 25, 2021.

Bones Hyland

With elite bucket-getting abilities, Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas has proven he’s no average rookie. With the fate of his team in his hands, Thomas attacks a hard closeout before calmly draining a game-winning, one-legged leaner to defeat the San Antonio Spurs. Thomas chipped in 11 points and six rebounds in the 121-119 overtime win on January 9, 2022.

Cam Thomas

Unlimited range in today’s NBA is a beautiful thing. New Orleans Pelicans rookie Trey Murphy III shows off his marksmanship with no hesitation as he drains a long three. Murphy converted on two triples in his NBA debut on October 20, 2021.

Trey Murphy III

In one of the first Moments to be selected by the community in Top Shot history, Davion Mitchell shows he has more than a few tricks up his sleeve. In his Top Shot Debut, Mitchell, gets CJ McCollum off balance with a quick, 'snatch-back' crossover to a stepback J.

Davion Mitchell

If it has anything to do with defensive intensity, you better believe Jalen Suggs is up to the challenge. Keeping eyes on a Philadelphia 76ers scorer entering his vicinity, the talented Orlando Magic guard sneaks off of his assignment flying in for a surprise rejection before channeling more energy to score on the other end with a fastbreak layup. Suggs’ efforts were showcased in the box score of the March 13, 2022 contest, as he tallied up 10 points, five rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block.

Welcome to the (Jordan) Poole party. Better known for his ability to get buckets from the perimeter, this time Poole sees a hole in the defense and takes it strong to the hoop, finishing at the rim with a tough up-and-under, off-hand layup.

Jordan Poole

Let ‘em know who you are, rook! In his regular season debut with the Memphis Grizzlies, Ziaire Williams is unguarded at the perimeter and makes the Cleveland Cavaliers defense pay by catching an outlet pass, squaring up and draining a three for the first bucket of his NBA career on October 20, 2021.

Ziaire Williams

Just when you think you’ve made a move to get past Al Horford in a one-on-one situation, the versatile veteran pulls a trick out of thin air. Stepping up to the challenge of defending an athletic Houston Rockets forward, Horford matches step-for-step, falls for a shot fake, but then recovers enough to complete the stop with an in-air swipe of the ball. The Boston Celtics big man put together a vintage stat line of 17 points, 10 rebounds, three steals and three blocks, helping his club to a 107-97 victory on October 24, 2021.

Al Horford

Trailer, trailer, trailer. With the defense on its heels, San Antonio Spurs rookie Joshua Primo provides an outlet for his teammate and readies himself for a three-point shot. Like clockwork, Primo collects the pass, steps into his shot, then releases over the defense for his first points in his NBA debut on October 20, 2021.

Joshua Primo

When you’re playing an NBA game in front of your hometown, you’d better be ready to put on a show. Jose Alvarado proves up to the challenge, putting the New York Knicks’ defense through a game of hide-and-seek. He uses a sharp behind-the-back before weaving through traffic and finishing with a fancy around-the-rim finish. Alvarado made good on his homecoming with an efficient 13-point, four-assist, four-steal performance in a 102-91 win for the New Orleans Pelicans on January 20, 2022.

Jose Alvarado

Homegrown buckets hit different. In his NBA regular season debut, Chicago Bulls rookie guard Ayo Dosunmu goes on a tear for not one but two transition layups. The Chicago native and University of Illinois star wasted no time making an impact on October 20, 2021.

Ayo Dosunmu

Klay Thompson may be one of the most feared shooters in NBA history, but he’s got other facets to his game he can contribute with as well. He showcases one here, leaking out on a fastbreak and facing a drive before dropping off a behind-the-back dish to a teammate for a score. Thompson played an all-around offensive game with 15 points, six assists and three triples in a 130-92 win over the Dallas Mavericks on January 25, 2022.

Forget everything you know about conventional basketball when Nikola Jokić hits the floor. The mesmerizing Denver Nuggets center defies positional norms yet again on January 7, 2022, seamlessly carrying the rock the length of the floor against the Sacramento Kings, then hitting JaMychal Green in stride with a casual no-look, one-handed entry feed. Jokić finished with 33 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists in the win. 

Nikola Jokić

Going into a tough overtime battle with an All-Star teammate on the mend and a talented center fouled out might have been too much to handle for many NBA talents. For Devin Booker, it proved to be another chance to showcase greatness. Amped up with a chance to seal a game against the Sacramento Kings, the talented two-guard calmly works to his spot before pulling up for a game-clinching fallaway bucket. The picturesque jumper capped off one of Booker’s signature performances, on the way to a 127-124 victory on March 20, 2022. The All-Star guard put in 31 points, seven rebounds, five assists, two three-pointers and a steal in the contest. 

Devin Booker

Pressure defense doesn't faze Jayson Tatum. The Boston Celtics star puts on a dribbling clinic in a series of maneuvers before losing his defender with a quick spin move and explosive finish at the hoop. Ball on a string. Tatum finished with 20 points in the November 1, 2021 contest against the Chicago Bulls.

Some rookies are just fearless from the jump. In his first regular season game with the Indiana Pacers, Chris Duarte attempts to lose his defender with a sidestep and a pump fake. With his man still on him and seconds left on the clock, Duarte pulls up for a jumper and beats the buzzer to nail a three, capping off an 11 point quarter. He shined in his debut with 27 points and five rebounds on October 20, 2021.

Chris Duarte

Rookie forward Jalen Johnson has the tools to be a problem in this league for years. The Atlanta Hawks fanbase gets a small glimpse of that potential as the Duke product drains a triple from the top of the key in his NBA regular season debut.

Jalen Johnson

Rumble, young man, rumble. Oklahoma City Thunder rookie guard Tre Mann assesses a fully-set Utah Jazz defense and, rolling around a screen, finds himself matched up with three-time Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert. With time fast expiring in the first quarter, Mann fearlessly takes one step toward the basket then steps back to sink a long jumper over Gobert’s outstretched arm in his NBA debut on October 20, 2021.

Tre Mann

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Dallas Mavericks guard Reggie Bullock provides a lesson in persistence here, missing on his first three-point attempt before draining it on his second chance to send the crowd into a frenzy with a clutch bucket. Bullock had a highlight game with 20 points, four rebounds and four triples to help his squad outlast the Philadelphia 76ers in a 107-98 win on February 4, 2022.

Reggie Bullock

No matter the matchup, Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards has proven he’s confident he can score in any situation. Despite giving up size in an isolation against a Denver Nuggets big, Edwards takes him for a dance, working a mix of between-the-legs, in-and-out crossovers and hesitations before getting enough space to drain a stepback three-pointer. That was the story of the night, as Edwards exploded for 38 points, 10 three-pointers and five rebounds in a 124-107 win on December 15, 2021.

Anthony Edwards

If you’re planning to suit up for the San Antonio Spurs, you’d better know a thing or two about smart ball movement. Catching the Orlando Magic sleeping on defense, big man Jock Landale shows off his IQ and vision, dropping a nifty dime to a teammate on a backdoor cut in his debut game on October 20, 2021.

Jock Landale

When you’re a rookie representing your hometown, the pressure can get to you. Just don’t tell that to 2021 Toronto Raptors draftee Dalano Banton. In his regular season debut, the Toronto native pulls up from halfcourt for three points... and his first ever NBA bucket.

Dalano Banton

Staying active and engaged as an offensive rebounder is essential. Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney flies in to corral a deflected rebound and has the presence of mind to finish a difficult layup, to help the Warriors take the lead, with under 14 seconds left to play. Looney had a strong outing in Golden State’s 102-100 victory over the Indiana Pacers on December 13, 2021 with 14 points, eight rebounds, three assists and a game-winning putback.

Kevon Looney

You love to see a rookie putting the league on notice. First-year Miami Heat center Omer Yurtseven catches a pass, backs his defender down toward the low post, then suddenly spins into a silky jumper with the poise of a vet. The rookie had eight points and three boards in his NBA debut – a victory over the reigning champion Milwaukee Bucks – on October 21, 2022.

Omer Yurtseven

From a professional baseball player to a Slam Dunk Contest participant to a knockdown three-point shooter, 29-year old Pat Connaughton has had quite the career path. In a game against the young Indiana Pacers, Connaughton runs the break before receiving a lead bounce pass from teammate Grayson Allen and finishes off the transition with an easy dunk. The veteran guard came to play, dropping 20 points in a 114-99 win on December 15, 2021.

Pat Connaughton

With his 37-inch vertical, 7-foot-5 wingspan and spirited play style, there are few things Indiana Pacers big Isaiah Jackson can’t do athletically. Creeping into the lane on a pick-and-roll, Jackson shows the San Antonio Spurs what that means, taking a pocket pass and rising up for a ferocious contact jam in traffic. Jackson’s boxscore showed his potential, with 15 points, five rebounds and two blocks in a 119-108 win on March 12, 2022.

Isaiah Jackson

It’s hard to disrupt the smooth, even-keeled approach Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane brings to the table. Bane rips through his defender on the perimeter and reverses back with a spin dribble into a driving slam with one hand. Memphis’s talented second-year guard scored 29 points and pulled down nine boards in the team’s 97-90 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on December 4, 2021.

Desmond Bane

Don’t underestimate a rookie with something to prove in their NBA debut. On the road against the Portland Trail Blazers on October 27, 2021, Memphis Grizzlies first-year forward Santi Aldama collects a pass with no one near him. With nothing but time, Aldama makes the Portland defense pay with a high-flying triple on October 27, 2021.

Santi Aldama

From New Orleans to Los Angeles, Rajon Rondo and Anthony Davis have years of experience as a lob pairing. Without a word or signal, Davis quickly spins around Juan Toscano-Anderson and skies for a Rondo pass that's already in flight. Poetry in motion.

Anthony Davis

Freeze 'em with a simple ball fake. Washington Wizards rookie Corey Kispert creates a lane for himself after freezing the defense and glides to the hoop for his first points as an NBA player. Savvy move and smooth finish by the rook in his NBA debut on October 22, 2021.

Corey Kispert

Jonas Valanciunas does it all for the Pelicans. New Orleans's starting center secures the rebound on a Karl-Anthony Towns missed three and launches a beautiful 'touchdown' pass to a streaking Nickeil Alexander-Walker for an easy lay-in on October 25, 2021.

Jonas Valančiūnas

It hasn’t taken Aaron Wiggins long to add to his offensive highlight reel as a rookie, but there’s nothing quite like that first ever basket in the NBA. Sitting in the corner and ready to fire away, the Oklahoma City Thunder swingman takes advantage of a late closeout by the Brooklyn Nets, catching a no-look pass and draining a three-pointer in one motion on November 14, 2021.

Aaron Wiggins

The Brooklyn Nets found a hidden gem with Kessler Edwards in the second round of the 2021 NBA Draft - he’s a perfect fit as a 3-and-D player off the bench. In his NBA debut, Edwards receives a pass on the wing and calmly squares up for a three ball from the elbow. The rookie forward finished with eight points, three rebounds and two triples in a matchup with the Golden State Warriors on November 16, 2021. 

Kessler Edwards

You don't need lightning quickness when you're hypnotic with the rock. Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden lulls his defender into a trance at the top of the key before utilizing his momentum against him with a crossover. Harden put on an offensive clinic in the December 27, 2021 win over the LA Clippers, erupting for 39 points, eight rebounds and a staggering 15 assists.

James Harden

The Houston Rockets roster is laden with up-and-coming talent. Rookie Josh Christopher shows off his tough shot-making ability with a stepback triple against smothering defense. This trey marked the first field goal of Christopher's career. The Arizona State product notched five points in his NBA regular season debut on October 20, 2021.

Josh Christopher

For Milwaukee Bucks guard Wesley Matthews, gritty 3-and-D play comes naturally. But, taking advantage of a hard closeout against the Orlando Magic, the veteran shows he’s full of surprises, drawing in a defender and setting up a teammate with a creative behind-the-back dime. Matthews also tallied 11 points and three triples in the 136-118 win on December 30, 2021.

Wesley Matthews

Find yourself someone who looks at you the way Buddy Hield looks at buckets. Seizing on a defensive scramble triggered by a slashing teammate, the Indiana Pacers scorer waits patiently in the corner long enough to snipe a wide-open kick-out triple. Not content with a single three, Hield then lurks in the opponents’ backcourt undetected, lunges into a passing lane as opportunity strikes, then beelines straight out to the corner for a second. Wet. Hield and company would hold on for a dramatic one-sided victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on March 20, 2022.

Buddy Hield

Down one with under a minute to go, there’s nothing more valuable than a scorer capable of getting his own bucket. Finding an angle down the right side of the court, Spencer Dinwiddie proved to be that guy, turning on his turbo before flipping in a tough finish over a Sacramento Kings big to put his team ahead for good. Dinwiddie took over in the fourth quarter to guide his short-handed Dallas Mavericks to a 114-113 triumph on March 5, 2022, with 13 of his 36 points coming in the final frame alone.

Spencer Dinwiddie

Executing a backdoor cut for a layup can be a thing of beauty. Oklahoma City Thunder rookie Jeremiah Robinson-Earl notices his defender turn his back and dashes to the cup, then receives a bounce pass from his teammate for an easy layup. The Villanova product notched 10 points off the bench in his NBA debut on October 20, 2021.

Jeremiah Robinson-Earl

Dorian Finney-Smith has carved out a role as a blossoming 3-and-D contributor for the Dallas Mavericks, but if you give him a free runway to the rim, don’t be surprised to end up on an autographed poster. Finney-Smith, not afraid to attack a hard closeout and get to the rim, did a little bit of everything on January 14, 2022, dropping 13 points in a substantial win over the Memphis Grizzlies.

Dorian Finney-Smith

Force the big man out onto the perimeter and make him make a play: simple formula for defensive success, right? Boston Celtics veteran Al Horford has other plans. The five-time All-Star blasts down the lane with three power dribbles and finishes through contact while also earning a trip to the charity stripe. His steady play (10 points and seven rebounds) helped spark a 95-78 blowout against the Miami Heat on November 4, 2021.

If there’s one thing you can count on with the San Antonio Spurs, it’s that they’ll always boast scorers capable of getting a bucket in the midrange. Early in his career, first-round pick Devin Vassell has shown little issue filling that need. Considering his options out of the triple threat, the Spurs forward shakes tough Indiana Pacers defense with a quick behind-the-back, spin combination and then balances himself for a smooth fallaway jumper. Vassell headlined the second unit in the November 1, 2021 contest, chipping in a versatile 15 points, three rebounds, three assists, two steals and a block.

Devin Vassell

Sleep on the rook and you might get caught slippin’! Left with ample shooting space by his defender, LA Clippers rookie guard Brandon Boston Jr. pulls up for a silky jumper from just inside the arc to sink his first career bucket in his NBA debut on October 25, 2021.

Brandon Boston Jr.

Devin Booker has made his name as one of the NBA’s most proficient three-level scorers. In the 2021-22 season, he’s also playing passing lanes and stealing the ball at a career rate. In a cat-and-mouse game, the Phoenix Suns All-Star guard makes himself skinny to fight through a dribble handoff before using his intuition to turn back and get a steal for a reverse fastbreak jam. Booker ended with 18 points in a Phoenix Suns 112-100 win on November 2, 2021.

No mirror tricks here! Noted right-hander Andrew Wiggins exclusively uses his off-hand for a three-dribble combination and southpaw poster over forward Darius Bazley.

Andrew Wiggins

Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard has a tight handle and creativity to break the defense down for open scoring opportunities. In a productive night against the Detroit Pistons, Pritchard charges hard to his right, then drops his man off with a nasty behind-the-back dribble and stepback jumper. The second-year playmaker finished with 19 points and six assists off the bench on February 26, 2022.

Whether the San Antonio Spurs are playing at home or not, Jakob Poeltl sends a familiar message to opponents every night: don’t come into my house. Dropping back in his pick-and-roll coverage to defend the paint, the Spurs big man keeps pace with a talented Portland Trail Blazers scorer, timing up his jump perfectly to send a shot attempt out of bounds. Poeltl, No. 5 in total blocks in 2021-22, put on a shot-rejecting clinic in a 133-96 blowout win on March 23, 2022, dominating to the tune of 16 points, nine rebounds, six blocks and a steal.

February is normally when the game’s best dunkers congregate to put on a show with highlight-caliber dunks. Out in transition with the rim to himself, Obi Toppin decided to get the festivities kicked off earlier. Leaking down the floor to beat the Charlotte Hornets defense, Toppin catches an outlet before lifting off for an awe-inspiring windmill slam to put his squad ahead late in the fourth. The soon-to-be Slam Dunk Contest champion flirted with a double-double in just 15 minutes of play, finishing with seven points, eight rebounds and a block on November 12, 2021.

It didn’t take long for Markelle Fultz to get back to making an impression after nearly 14 months on the sidelines. In his first taste of official action since a knee injury ended his 2020-21 campaign, the Orlando Magic guard explodes into the paint against the Indiana Pacers then leaps through the air for an acrobatic up-and-under layup. Fultz racked up 10 points and six dimes on five-of-seven shooting in a cautiously limited 16-minute stint on February 28, 2022.

Pick a spot on the floor and Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid will show you he can score there. Calling his own number, the All-Star big man decides to work a rhythm dribble before calmly draining a stepback three-pointer in traffic. Embiid made history during the 123-110 win over the Orlando Magic on January 19, 2022, dropping in 50 points in just 27 minutes, the fastest in NBA history.

See an open lane and take it. With defensive attention zeroed in on Golden State Warriors teammate Steph Curry, versatile big man Draymond Green finds a clear path to the cup. It doesn’t take more than a split second for Green to decide what he wants to do: one hard dribble, two big steps and one monster hammer up and over the defense. Green registered a well-rounded line of eight points, eight boards and five dimes in the November 5, 2021 win over the visiting New Orleans Pelicans.

Draymond Green

Even if you throw a couple of defenders at Boston Celtics All-Star Jayson Tatum, he’s still likely to drop a bucket on you. Tatum is met by multiple players beyond the three-point line, splits the screen with a left-handed dribble, gets in the lane and goes up for a powerful, two-handed slam. Tatum had one of the most complete outings of his career against the Washington Wizards on January 23, 2022, dropping a season-high 51 points along with 10 rebounds and seven assists. 

The road team wants nothing more than to silence the home crowd in a tense moment. Robert Williams III did just that after diving hard to the basket, hammering home a lob from Jayson Tatum. Williams III tallied a double-double of 12 points & 16 rebounds (to go along with 3 blocks) in Boston's 140-129 double overtime shootout in Charlotte on October 25, 2021.

Hustle your way back to break up a transition play and, more often than not, great things will happen. Showing off his relentless motor, Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams speeds back on defense, pins a Denver Nuggets shot against the glass and saves an easy score. Williams chipped in eight points, two triples and a pair of blocks, his hustle plays proving critical in a 108-102 win on February 11, 2022.

If there's a lane to the basket, DeMar DeRozan is going to find it. The Chicago Bulls swingman puts his slashing ability on display in the waning seconds of a quarter against the Los Angeles Lakers, first blowing past his man out at the perimeter, picking up steam on his way through the paint, then finishing around the outstretched arms of a help-side defender. DeRozan put up 38 points in the road victory on November 15, 2021.

Some of the best blocks are the ones that come through a mixture of IQ, perfect timing and a willingness to hustle. Sneaking down to help out his teammate, Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes puts on a masterclass of all of the above, swatting away a Los Angeles Lakers layup attempt from one of the game's toughest scorers. Barnes was on his game with 23 points, seven rebounds, three triples and a block in the 125-116 win on January 12, 2022.

Harrison Barnes

Tyler Herro does not shy away from the big Moments. The Miami Heat guard has zero hestiation in getting to his spot, taking his defender off the dribble, then hitting him with a stepback triple. Nothing but bottom. Herro chipped in with a team-high 30 points off the bench.

Court vision is an impressive quality in a rookie. Portland Trail Blazers neophyte Greg Brown III waits in the corner as teammate Ben McLemore catches a pass at the top of the key. Brown drives baseline as McLemore turns to pass to him and the rookie snags the rock mid-motion before getting up for a two-handed slam in his NBA debut on October 23, 2021.

Whether he’s loading up for an alley-oop jam or rotating over to contest an opponent’s shot, John Collins’ athleticism gives him an edge in every situation. Shifting over to help defend a crafty Philadelphia 76ers scorer, the Atlanta Hawks big man shows his blend of speed, length and awareness, blocking a layup attempt and corralling the rebound in one fluid motion. Collins’ box score reflected his playstyle, with 18 points, eight rebounds, two three-pointers, two blocks and a steal on December 3, 2021.

Andre Iguodala is an offensive maestro with the ball in his hands. The versatile Golden State Warriors swingman receives a pass from teammate Nemanja Bjelica, freezes the defense with a ball fake, then executes an on-point, behind-the-back pass to Bjelica for the lay-in. A perfectly executed give-and-go. Iguodala recorded 10 dimes off the pine in a win over the New Orleans Pelicans on November 5, 2021.

The NBA is filled with some of the world’s most talented scorers but few are as crafty as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. The Oklahoma City Thunder guard shows off his silky-smooth handle, freeing himself of tight defensive coverage with a between-the-legs, crossover combo before gathering into a hanging floater at the rim. It was business as usual for Gilgeous-Alexander, who finished with 33 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists in a 130-109 win over the star-studded Brooklyn Nets on January 13, 2022.

The only thing more difficult than defending Kyrie Irving and his handle in the halfcourt? Trying to contain him on a fastbreak without a set defense. The Brooklyn Nets star guard shows off his defense-to-offense skills, snagging an errant pass and taking it coast-to-coast with a smooth finish against the Charlotte Hornets. Irving was a walking highlight on both ends on March 8, 2022, with 50 points on just 19 shots, six assists, a steal and a block in the 132-121 win.

Protect the paint at all costs. Houston Rockets rookie Usman Garuba flashes his defensive court awareness and athleticism, switching onto the ball handler, then recovering back to his man to swat away a dunk attempt. Garuba notched four points and two boards along with this big-time block in his NBA debut on October 20, 2021.

Miami is known for momentum-shifting plays. Bam Adebayo ignites the break with a feed to Tyler Herro, who lofts the perfect set up for Jimmy Butler's signature, two-handed slam. Jimmy finished with 36 points and 5 steals in the 107-90 victory against Orlando.

Dallas Mavericks big Maxi Kleber isn’t known for his above-the-rim game but with a free path down the lane defenses are at his mercy. Here, he takes off as a roll man in a pick-and-roll and snags a lob for an athletic one-handed slam. Kleber had nine points, five rebounds and four assists against the Phoenix Suns on January 20, 2022.

Maxi Kleber

Lonzo Ball’s activity as a defender gives him a nice edge as a playmaker on the other end - when he gets out and runs, it’s usually followed by a perfect dime. Ball snatches the rock out of mid-air, rushes down the court with a couple of bounces, then drops a no-look, between-the-legs pass to a trailing Zach LaVine for the smooth finish. The Chicago Bulls guard finished with nine points, six rebounds, five assists and three steals in a January 9, 2022 matchup with the Dallas Mavericks.

It hasn’t taken long for Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey’s offensive brilliance to earn the utmost respect from NBA defenses. Here, Maxey uses it to his advantage, drawing in a Detroit Pistons defender on a 3-on-1 fastbreak before whipping a behind-the-back pass to set up teammate Tobias Harris for a jam. Maxey had 16 points on just eight shots, and chipped in six rebounds and six assists in a 110-102 win on October 28, 2021.

Now just where did that man go? Toronto Raptors star Fred VanVleet gives Brooklyn Nets stars Patty Mills and James Harden windburn as he slips past their clutches like a ghost in the night. To top it all off, he drives to the basket, finishing a beautiful layup around the enormous outstretched arms of Kevin Durant. It’s yet another prime example of why VanVleet became an All-Star for the first time this season. The Raptors guard had 21 points and eight assists on November 7, 2021.

Fred VanVleet

It doesn’t take Immanuel Quickley long to rack up points. Outsmarting the Brooklyn Nets on an inbound pass, Quickley takes flight to steal an errant throw before speeding out to the three-point line to deliver a bucket. This high-IQ stop-and-score helped the New York Knicks open up a 20-point, first-quarter lead on February 16, 2022. The talented Knicks guard kept the highlights flowing on the way to 18 points on 7-of-10 shooting, four three-pointers, six rebounds, four assists and a steal.

Immanuel Quickley

If there’s any opportunity for a lob, Los Angeles Lakers veteran center DeAndre Jordan will find a way to convert. This time, he initiates things with a head-nod and quick feed to Russell Westbrook, follows up with an even quicker dive to the rim and receives a beautiful return feed for his patented right-handed oop. DJ’s slam was part of a big night against the Charlotte Hornets on November 8, 2021.

DeAndre Jordan

When Sacramento Kings guard De’Aaron Fox is in attack mode, he commands a defense’s utmost attention. Fox uses that reputation to his advantage, getting an Oklahoma City Thunder big to leave his feet before taking to the rim, drawing in the entire defense, and skipping it back out to set up a teammate for a wide-open triple. Fox handled business with 29 points, 10 assists and two steals in a 131-110 victory on February 28, 2022.

If you get caught in a screen-and-roll against the Phoenix Suns, be prepared to give up some points, one way or another. Deandre Ayton shows one of those ways, rolling to the basket and slamming in a rim-shaking putback jam off a teammate’s miss. Ayton made his presence felt with 21 points, 21 rebounds and a block in the October 27, 2021.
