If you followed Johnny Davis’ strong close to the season for the Washington Wizards, you can probably guess his favorite moment.
Davis had an expanded role late in the year, and averaged 17 points per game over five games in April. One of those games included the best highlight of his rookie campaign.
In a late-season loss to Milwaukee, Davis was able to catch one of the NBA’s best defenders at the rim with a ferocious slam. He threw it down on Jrue Holiday, and finished that April 4th contest with 20 points on 9-17 shooting from the field. Here is Davis on that play in his own words:
pretty sure we can all agree that this was our fav play from @JohnnyDavis this season 🥶 pic.twitter.com/c5rvoEpC5u
