During the 3rd quarter of the game, Jeff Green found himself on the 3-point line with some space to himself. He chose to drive by his defender and rose for an explosive dunk. Now, Giannis Antetokounmpo was in the paint and thought he could get a block on a 36-year-old.
However, Giannis was mistaken and instead, got himself on the receiving end of a poster for a change.
People compiled various angles of this beautiful dunk.
Even though the result of the game didn’t go his way, there was no love lost between Giannis Antetokounmpo and Nikola Jokic.
