Hornets’ LaMelo Ball, Miles Bridges connect for epic alley-oop slam

The Charlotte Hornets are flying high in the Queen City tonight, and the connection between LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges is looking as dangerous as ever.

During the second quarter of Wednesday night’s matchup against the Toronto Raptors, the Hornets’ dynamic duo nearly blew the roof off the Spectrum Center with a highlight-reel play that had the home crowd buzzing. With 6:23 left in the half, Ball isolated his defender at the top of the key, using his signature handle to create a lane to the basket.

Instead of finishing the layup himself, the 24-year-old point guard unselfishly tossed a perfectly placed lob to a soaring Bridges. The high-flying forward did the rest, catching the pass in stride for an emphatic alley-oop slam that swung the momentum firmly in Charlotte’s favor.
