Philadelphia 76ers center Nerlens Noel threw down a filthy one-handed reverse slam on the Golden State Warriors.

Every time the Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers get together it’s an interesting game. Both teams are at each end of the spectrum in the NBA and most people expect to see a blood bath when both teams square off on the court.

While the Warriors pulled away from the 76ers on the road convincingly, the 76ers had their fair share of moments against the defending champions on Saturday.

The young 76ers showed what some of their players can do against a good Warriors defense. With Jerami Grant driving in the paint against Draymond Green, Grant made a nifty spin move to find a wide open Nerlens Noel.

Noel avoided Warriors center Andrew Bogut just enough to throw down a highlight reel one-handed reverse slam and pick up contact on the play.

Noel might have a limited skill set offensively, but he sure is explosive when he gets his hands on the ball near the hoop. As he gains more confidence in his ability around the rim, he’ll start taking more chances on explosive plays like this one.

Doing it against the champs is always great for a confidence boost.
