Chen Xi pulled up from the right sideline to the 45-degree angle to receive the ball. He held it in place in a triple threat stance, using a jab step to force Gordon half a step back. Then he waited for Davis's screen before driving left and cutting inside.
After dribbling quickly to a spot just above the free-throw line, he ran straight into Nikola Jokic.
Naturally, Chen Xi showed not the slightest fear when he found himself facing him.
Without slowing down much, he suddenly used a push dribble change of direction, then relied on his speed to get past Jokic in a single step and move to his side. He gathered the ball and took off on his three steps toward the basket.

The thunderous sound echoed throughout the arena.
"Chris!!! He just posterized Michael Porter!!!!"
"Holy crap!!! Oh my God! What am I
