Late in the first quarter, Atlanta Hawks forward Paul Millsap submitted his nomination for dunk of the year at the expense of Milwaukee Bucks center John Henson.
After catching a pass outside the three-point arc, Millsap used a pump-fake to send Bucks forward Johnny O'Bryant flying past him. Then he drove to the lane and threw down a thunderous right-handed jam over Henson, who contested late with his left hand.
While Henson may have lost that battle, his team won the war. He loomed large for the Bucks much of the night, scoring 10 points off the bench with seven rebounds and six blocks in a 108-101 overtime victory.
