Knicks big man Kristaps Porzingis did another amazing thing during Sunday’s game against the Nets.
You almost have to feel bad for Spencer Didwiddie, who did a great job of getting penetration and creating a lane to the hoop on the play. Unfortunately, Porzingis came out of nowhere to block his shot — which entailed him literally snatching the ball out of mid-air by palming it.

The concentration, athleticism, coordination, execution — all of those add up to why that’s one of the greatest blocks we’ve seen this season.
