Lauri Markkanen Coast to Coast for the slam

It was only the second game into the regular season, and Markkanen wasted no time showing off his abilities! Against Cal State Bakersfield at home, he dribbled the ball coast to coast for the slam.

This guy from Finland can apparently do it all! He has even earned the nickname ‘The Finnisher.’ At 7’0 he is a force to be reckoned with and is a late season award nominee. Since that dunk, there have been many more highlight reel moments, but this is a great example of his all-around athleticism.
