Timberwolves’ Jaden McDaniels posterizes Deni Avdija with fastbreak dunk
When Jaden McDaniels gets a head of steam on the open floor, you usually want to just get out of the way. Deni Avdija learned that the hard way on Wednesday night.
During the first quarter of the Minnesota Timberwolves’ matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers at Target Center, the “Slim Reaper” provided a legitimate candidate for dunk of the year. The play started with Donte DiVincenzo, who has been a defensive pest all season, snagging a steal at the half-court line.

DiVincenzo didn’t hesitate, immediately looking up to find a streaking McDaniels. He lobbed a perfect pass toward the rim, and McDaniels did the rest, soaring through the air to posterize a defenseless Avdija with a thunderous alley-oop finish. The home crowd in Minneapolis absolutely lost it as the Timberwolves’ defensive ace showed off his elite verticality.
