The Nets were blown out by the 76ers at home on Sunday, losing 121–99. However, Brooklyn had one standout moment during the game. Whether captured in a photo (maybe for a poster) or recorded on video, a first-quarter basket by Lonnie Walker was a beautiful sight.
Brooklyn’s Trendon Watford blocked a shot by Philadelphia’s Joel Embiid and the ball was passed to Walker who dribbled down the left side of the court. He then turned toward the middle and accelerated to the lane before racing through all five Sixers defenders for a ferocious dunk.
The Nets’ social media team posted several videos of Walker’s highlight over three Philadelphia players, including a clip from the broadcast and a slow-motion look at the play.
