Bogdan Bogdanović

When you’ve got Bogdan Bogdanović’s stroke, you can pass up the open look and still bury the more difficult one. The Atlanta Hawks guard is the recipient of a pass from Clint Capela that finds him wide open in the corner, but Bogdanović passes it up in favor of a baseline drive. When a Chicago Bulls defender seals off Bogdanović’s path and with the shot clock rapidly draining, the sixth-year pro improvises and tosses up a prayer while falling out of bounds that somehow finds the bottom of the net. It was that kind of shooting night for Bogdanović, who scored a team-high 28 points off the bench while also chipping in seven rebounds, five assists and six three-pointers in Atlanta’s 123-122 overtime victory on December 11, 2022.
