Throwline Thursdays: Giannis Antetokounmpo

Now if you’re an avid NBA fan, I’m sure you’ll find it hard to pick one moment from Giannis Antetokounmpo’s biting on-court gameplay. The explosive power forward has quite an iconography behind him despite only being 28 years old and one moment that will never fail to stand out is his insane poster dunk over New York Knicks wingman Tim Hardaway Jr.

Let’s cast our minds back to that very moment on February 6th, 2018. Khris Middleton seized a cross-court pass and kickstarted a fast break alongside Knicks' wingman Tim Hardaway Jr., while Giannis was positioned on the right. Unfortunately, Hardaway couldn't intercept the pass, leading to Giannis catching the ball, taking flight, and delivering one of his most remarkable posterizing dunks ever.
