Boston Celtics: Top 10 moments from 2017-18 NBA season

9. Irving shows off the handles against the Bucks

It’s no secret that Kyrie Irving has arguably the best handles in the league today, maybe of all time.

Left hand, right hand. In and out, crossovers. Behind the backs, spin moves.

It’s like ordering from a restaurant, with Irving capable of serving up any combination he chooses.

This was widely apparent in a late October matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks, where Irving put on his latest magic trick.

The best part about this sequence was that Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon defended Irving very well, crowding him into what was heading towards a contested heave with the shot clock winding down.

Then, as he tends to do, Irving found a way, leaving Brogdon dazed and confused, spinning out of an approaching double-team while getting some friendly bounces on his floater in the process.

NBA fans tend to use the term “magician” a little too much when describing elite ball-handlers, but when it comes to this particular move, Irving put on one of the better disappearing acts of his career.
