Tari Eason's Misread Handed LeBron a Free Dunk
One misread by Tari Eason completely unravels what was actually a well-designed play.
The action is set up for KD to back screen for Sheppard, draw the switch, and then flare screen Reeves for an open look. Clean concept. But Eason never even looks in that direction until it's way too late. The pass needed to be thrown before he even thought about it.
KD knows it immediately. Doesn't even try to recover. And LeBron punishes the breakdown with a throwback throwdown straight out of his Miami days.
This is what happens when one player is off script. Doesn't matter how good the design is.
