It had already been an exciting night in the NBA, with both Jamal Murray and Joel Embiid scoring 50 points in separate games.
Then Anthony Edwards came out of nowhere to make it electric.
With time running down in the third quarter, Edwards elevated from the baseline and slammed home a thunderous dunk over Yuta Watanabe. The Toronto Raptors forward may never be the same.
Here is the can’t-miss dunk itself, and some of the best reaction to it:
