Throwline Thursdays: Blake Griffin

As the basketball legend stated, his dunk over Kendrick Perkins is one of those iconic slam dunk moments firmly engraved in the history of the NBA.

Blake Griffin over Kendrick Perkins

Suppose you cast your mind back to that astonishing moment on Monday the 30th of January 2012. In that case, you’ll remember a young Blake Griffin in the midst of this third season with the LA Clippers when they went up against the Oklahoma City Thunder, pulling off the ultimate victory with the Clippers securing a 112-110 point reign.

Although Chris Paul led with 26 points and 14 assists, what will be remembered is that court-defining moment when Blake Griffin (who also secured 22 points this game) catapulted into the air and posterized over Oklahoma City Thunder’s centre forward at the time Kendrick Perkins.

Watch the video below to see this unforgettable moment in action:

As always, make sure you keep yourself locked in with the latest from Crep Daily!
