Aleksej Pokusevski stars in the sloppy basketball sequence

Aleksej Pokusevski or Poku or The Poku Experience as he is popularly known among the fans was the star of a hilarious sequence in the game. At the start of the game, a few minutes into the first quarter, Pokusevski blocked a three-point shot from Dorian Finney-Smith. He started running with the ball towards the rim for a reverse two-handed dunk. Poku ended up missing it completely and the ball was rebounded by Finney-Smith of the Mavericks.

Jalen Brunson then had possession of the ball and made a bad pass. The ball was deflected and stolen by – you guessed it right – Aleksej Pokusevski. He got another open lane and this time he went for a simple one-handed jam. He made it this time to give his team east two points. The Twitter reaction to this play was absolute gold. Some people mocked Poku for missing the dunk being a 7-footer while some lowkey wanted him to miss the second dunk too.
