Josh Smith is one of the most athletic players in the NBA and he proved that once again with this vicious dunk over Steve Nash. Although Smith’s Atlanta Hawks ended up losing the game, this dunk alone made it a memorable night.
Nash and the Phoenix Suns were able to win thanks to a strong second half. Amare Stoudemire led the way with 23 points, while Nash chipped in with 14 points and 13 assists. Smith was the high scorer and high rebounder for the Hawks, finishing with 19 and 12, respectively.
After being slowed a bit by injury to begin the season, Smith has been very good in January. For the month, he’s averaging 19.7 points and 7.5 rebounds while shooting better than 55% from the field.
