New York Knicks rookie sensation Kristaps Porzingis ruined Washington Wizards forward Jared Dudley with a big spin and slam.

All eyes were on Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night, when the Washington Wizards visited the New York Knicks. After firing Derek Fisher, everyone was curious to see how the Knicks would respond on the court under new interim coach Kurt Rambis.

One thing that has been a constant this season for the Knicks is Kristaps Porzingis. The rookie has been amazing everyone on a nightly basis with how fundamentally sound he is, but also with his penchant for the big play and highlight reel moves.

On Tuesday night, Porzingis had another big play as he made Wizards forward Jared Dudley look silly on a play. With Porzingis backing Dudley down, he spun past him toward an open hoop and center Marcin Gortat could not get back in time to pick up the bad defensive play by his teammate.

Someone that size shouldn’t be able to move so fluidly, but that’s what makes watching Porzingis exciting every single night. As for Dudley, he isn’t a bad defender, but every now and then he gets caught in his shoes and this ends up happening.
