Three-Point Layup, 3+1
The Kings hadn't had any chance to fast-break at all.
Wang Yi had forced one into existence with his superhuman speed.
Capela's pass was perfectly placed this time, and after catching it, Wang Yi was just one step outside the three-point line.
Crowder could tell Wang Yi was going for a three-point layup.
He gritted his teeth and roared, "This is a no-fly zone!"
Then he lunged at Wang Yi.
Wang Yi had already jumped from beyond the three-point line, gliding toward the inside of the arc.
Crowder put everything into his leap and went for the block.
Of course, he couldn't jump high enough to reach the ball in Wang Yi's hands—not even his elbow.
But using the momentum of his attempted block, he swung his forearm straight at Wang Yi's face.
Wang Yi had known all along that Crowder played dirty.
So the moment he saw Crowder jump, he was already preparing to curl up and dodge the block.
He tucked the ball in midair, curled up, and ducked his head.
He sailed beneath Crowder's arm.
Crowder's forearm grazed Wang Yi's scalp, but it didn't affect his layup at all.
Only after evading Crowder's block did Wang Yi extend his body again, using his freakish core strength to keep himself balanced.
He had dodged Crowder's hit, but the glide had taken him too far, and he'd curled up to evade the block in midair. There was no way he could attempt a finger roll like before.
After raising the ball again, all he could do was throw up a floater with everything he had.
It was an unprecedented move.
No one in history had ever glided such a long distance from beyond the three-point line, dodged a block in midair, and then released a floater.
