The 2022 NBA Summer League tipped off on Saturday and Jay Huff wasted no time in creating a buzz on NBA twitter with a pair of highlight reverse dunks as part of a very strong opening performance in the Lakers’ 100-66 blowout win over the Heat.
See the following video to watch the former Wahoo big man throw down the two reverse dunks:
Huff went 4/7 from the floor and finished with nine points, seven rebounds, two blocks, and two assists. He knocked down a three-pointer from the top of the key and also had a third dunk, an impressive one-handed putback.
Just this first performance from Huff, who is currently on a two-way deal with the Lakers, led many Lakers’ fans to take to Twitter to express their wishes to see Jay Huff get a shot in the NBA on a standard contract. The tweets speak for themselves:
See Jay Huff and the Lakers take on the Warriors on Saturday at 7:30pm (ET) on NBA TV. See the full NBA Summer League schedule here.
