Phoenix Suns rookie forward Marquese Chriss put down an impressive alley-oop slam over Brooklyn Nets forward Quincy Acy.

The 2016 NBA Draft Class has been a work in progress thus far to say the least. Still, there are players from this most recent draft class that are beginning to blossom in the league. Phoenix Suns forward Marquese Chriss is one of those players that is beginning to take off in this league.

Chriss loves to use athleticism to put down explosive dunks and has seen himself on several highlight reels already because of it. Making his first journey to Brooklyn this year, Chriss made sure to put on a show early.

As the Suns got off to a hot start, Tyler Ulis saw his power forward with a lane to the hoop. Chriss had no trouble getting up for the ball and then dunking over Quincy Acy, who more or less got out of the way.

Everyone has known for a while plays like this are currently his biggest strength. He was one of the most raw prospects in this past year’s draft, but there was no denying the talent that he has when dunking.

It’s important for a rookie to try and make a name for themselves. Chriss has done that and more this year with his monster dunks. It won’t be long until he enters the discussion for best dunk artists in the league at this point.
