We have seen plenty of crafty plays in the NBA this season, but this dunk by Memphis Grizzlies SF James Johnson might take the cake. The creative play took place when Johnson found himself in the middle of the lane last night in a game against the Clippers, and had nowhere to go. He then got really resourceful and decided to throw it off the backboard for the alley-oop, and the best part was it was to himself. To put the icing on the cake, he put Matt Barnes from the Clippers on a poster in the process.
This one was part of the effort by the Grizzlies to upset the Clippers last night as well, defeating them 102-96. Watch the ferocious slam after the jump.
