The Lakers star possessed the ball in the backcourt before penetrating to the basket, splitting the defense. As Doncic got to the paint, he gathered the ball and exploded up to the rim for a monstrous two-handed jam over Hornets forward Moussa Diabate before letting go of the rim and letting out a scream. Doncic's teammates couldn't believe the dunk and trolled him in the comments of a photo he posted of the play on Instagram on Tuesday.
But what makes Sunday's win more noteworthy was that this week, for the first time, the Cowboys' defense showed up and made an impact on the game. The much-maligned unit sacked Jayden Daniels twice, the second one ending his day early in the third quarter. They added two more sacks of Marcus Mariota. The second sack of Daniels also forced a fumble, which the defense recovered.
