The ally-oop has become a staple of basketball on every single level. Most of the time, we see it used as a backdoor set play in a half-court offense, or it’s the way to get up and down the court quickly on a fastbreak. But it is even more impressive when it is used on an out-of-bounds set. This is when the athleticism and size of a player comes into play.

Of course, had Victor Oladipo put this down, we would have posted it. H/T EKU Sports
