Anthony Edwards likely still has the Dunk of the Year leader, but Charlotte’s Miles Bridges has demanded to be part of the conversation.
Bridges’ throwdown over a good rim protector in Clint Capela is jaw-dropping.

That. Is. Nasty.
Bridges finished with a team-high 23 points, but it wasn’t enough as Atlanta got a 105-101 win despite Trae Young sitting out, thanks to 32 points from Bogdan Bogdanovic.
Still, the highlight of the night goes to Bridges.
