3. Klay reminds us that he can dunk
I sometimes forget that Klay can dunk. After the #ChinaKlay mishap, I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical for that split second Klay went into his gather — especially with Anthony Davis and Jrue Holiday trailing.
Plus I’m just so used to seeing transition threes from Klay that transition dunks almost seem as rare as a solar eclipse.

To be quite honest, I was beyond surprised when I didn’t see Klay gather into a transition three. In a rather assertive manner, Klay chose to forego the extra point and remind everyone that he can still, indeed, jam it home.
I guess the block was pretty cool, too.
