Wang Yi didn't just block the shot—he snatched the ball out of the air with one hand.
Just how terrifying was that?
When Zion saw Wang Yi swat Edwards' shot with one hand, he immediately knew Wang Yi would push the fast break. He took off at once, sprinting toward the Kings' frontcourt.
After landing, Wang Yi found himself facing Bagley and Edwards on defense.
He pulled the ball in, spun, and forced his way between them.
Then he took off down the court at full speed.

After gathering the ball, he took a hop step and landed on both feet. Then, dragging Zion along, he forced himself into the air.
As countless stunned spectators in the arena and watching on TV looked on, he dragged Zion through the air for about two meters, then slammed the ball down onto the rim.

Wang Yi landed without even glancing at Zion. He turned and surveyed the Heat players.
It was as if he were warning
