But Roy still sent the ball steadily towards the basket, having long been accustomed to such confrontations from training with Matt Barnes. He was confident he could make the shot.
However, just as the ball was about to descend, Dwight Howard soared into the clouds, brushing the ball that had reached its peak with his fingertips.
This wasn't a visually explosive pin-down block, but it was indeed a block.
The basketball, after being brushed by Howard, completely deviated from the basket and was caught by the skier, Radmanovic.
"Incredible block! My God, Dwight will be the best defensive player of the next decade!" Mike Breen marveled at Howard's athleticism. Yes, Ben Wallace's athleticism was also very strong, but still somewhat inferior to Howard's. Moreover, Howard's true height is about 206 to 208 centimeters, which is the height Big Ben reaches with his Afro. Howard's 225-centimeter wingspan is even more impressive than Ben Wallace's. He's essentially an upgraded Big Ben.
