Throwline Thursdays: Hamidou Diallo

This week we pay ode to Washington Wizards shooting guard Hamidou Diallo 


 

Hamidou Diallo's slam dunk over Shaquille O'Neal during the NBA's All-Star weekend was not just a moment of athletic brilliance; it was a statement of his potential and prowess in the league. Drafted by the Brooklyn Nets in 2018 and quickly traded to the Charlotte Hornets before finding his home with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Diallo has been a player to watch. 

His journey from being the 45th overall pick to claiming the spotlight with such a fearless dunk exemplifies his determination and skill. Dunking over a legend like Shaquille O'Neal, Diallo didn't just leap physically; he soared into the annals of memorable All-Star moments. The creativity to hang by his elbow and reveal a ‘Superman’ shirt mid-performance showcased not just his physical capabilities but his flair for showmanship. 


Let’s recap to this special moment below!
