Pacers’ Jay Huff embarrasses Celtics with latest reverse dunk

Are the Indiana Pacers turning a corner? They might just be. On Monday night, the Pacers won their third consecutive game, taking advantage of a matchup against the Jaylen Brown-less Boston Celtics en route to earning a 98-96 victory. This latest Pacers win was courtesy of a game-winning floater from Pascal Siakam, who spun away from Derrick White and floated home a high-arching teardrop over Neemias Queta to seal the win.

While Siakam deservedly earned the headlines after he emerged as the hero for the Pacers, as he has been for the team all season long, the whole team has been getting their swagger back as of late, and that should not go unnoticed. In particular, Jay Huff is back to making fools of his defenders by utilizing his famous reverse-centric dunk package.

On Monday night, Huff had another signature moment. With two Celtics defenders closing out on a three-point attempt of his during the second quarter, the Pacers center, rather surprisingly, put the ball on the floor and drove all the way to the basket. But instead of settling for a humdrum one-handed jam, Huff found a way to dunk the ball in reverse fashion, as he’s become famous for throughout his career.
