    >#####What has been the best play of the season?

    >/1. Luka Doncic’s rebound off intentionally missed free throw and game-tying putback to force OT vs. New York on Dec. 27 – 43%

    >/2. Aaron Gordon’s and-1 dunk over Phoenix’s Landry Shamet on Christmas Day – 27%

    >T-3. Zion Williamson’s 360-windmill dunk vs. Phoenix on Dec. 9 – 7%

    >T-3. De’Aaron Fox’s half-court game-winner vs. Orlando on Nov. 5 – 7%

    I dunno, I kinda feel like Larry Nance Jr.’s game-saving block on Markkanen shoulda had some love here. It’s not even in the honorable mentions.
