All season long New York Knicks rookie Kristaps Porzingis has done a ton of fun things. From tip dunks to blocks to 30 foot three-pointers, it seems every night Kristaps is a major part of Knicks highlights. On Monday afternoon he added yet another highlight by flying by an unsuspecting Nerlens Noel in semi-transition and finishing hard at the rim.

That was nice fake effort by Jahlil Okafor and Robert Covington to “contest” Porzingis at the rim. Both were close enough to make it look like that dunk was tough but neither really got close enough to get dunked on by Porzingis, which is a good idea because he is good at dunking on people.
On the other hand, this feels like a good time to remind people that Porzingis is 7’2” because people that big should not be able to fly down the floor, catch a pass in stride and not travel while dunking like he did.
