Earlier this month, Nic Claxton had the best dunk of his short NBA career, slamming home a posterizing dunk over Clint Capella and Danilo Gallinari in the fourth quarter of the Nets win over the Hawks on December 10.
But as if there was any doubt, Claxton’s Christmas Day alley-oop dunk over LeBron James has now taken the top spot. Just ask him.
“That’s definitely No. 1,” Claxton said. “Definitely the most memorable moment of my career. It was lit. It just happened.”
Claxton, who finished the Christmas Day win with nine points, six rebounds, five blocks (career-high) and three assists in 32 minutes has played very well for Brooklyn as of late.
