Atlanta Hawks: Top 20 plays of the 2018-19 NBA season
16. Jeremy Lin dishes a slick overhead dime to Alex Len
Journeyman point guard Jeremy Lin didn’t spend much time in Atlanta and his run with the Hawks can best be described statistically as “meh” (15.9 Player Efficiency Rating, .092 win shares per 48 minutes). However, the man who once took the NBA by storm over the course of two weeks in 2012 occasionally showed off some nifty plays, like this one against the Miami Heat.
15. Kent Bazemore throws down a nasty jam
Despite the occasional trade rumors that hung over his head during the preseason and throughout the regular season, alleged 3-and-D wing Kent Bazemore spent the entire season clanking triples for a Hawks team that struggled in that area throughout the year.
But he still possesses that great leaping ability, which allows him to drop the hammer as he did here against the Dallas Mavericks.
