Washington Wizards: Top 5 Bradley Beal all-star moments
By Keith Cork
2. 2019 NBA All-Star Game fake and finish
It was just in last year’s all-star game where Bradley Beal was making an impact during the all-star weekend. In the 2019 game, he posted 11 points, 3 assists, and 1 steal in another winning effort.
If you’re keeping track, that means our boy Beal is undefeated in all-star games. Someone should have picked him up.
Anyways, he didn’t play his best game, but this fake and finish off a Ben Simmons steal is probably his best singular move and dunk in an all-star game to date. I have a feeling it won’t be the last, but here it is:
Poor Nikola Vučević never even knew what hit him, and again this is another example of the “sneaky” athleticism of Bradley Beal. In last year’s campaign, Beal put up 25.6 points and 5.5 assists. He hasn’t been as efficient this season, but he’s had a few dunks like this to be sure.
He should be out there doing it again this weekend, but we’ll have to wait one more year to see our boy sky above a center so effortlessly yet again. And that subtle fake to put Vuc on his heels, man I just got some goosebumps.
