He is huge and he jumps excessively high. He should have watched the Slam Dunk Contest on TV, but Shaedon Sharpe’s package led the NBA to give him a call. That man is Jericho Sims, and here are his highlights this season.
Very often he hides short corner to recover a lobbed pass and slam it into the circle, DeAndre Jordan prime style. But sometimes, Jericho Sims gains confidence in his abilities (of a heron) and flies over the cuckoo’s nest to go fart a huge tomar in traffic. Called in as reinforcements to replace a Shaedon Sharpe who preferred to give everything to help the Blazers finish tenth, the pivot of the Knicks will try this evening to thwart the forecasts, although these same forecasts predict him… winner of the competition. This sentence means nothing, in short. New York has its Mitchell Robinson and its Isaiah Hartenstein to put on some fun, but New York also has its Sims, a kind of giant with quite extraordinary physical abilities, who will therefore try to unleash an extraordinary Slam Dunk Contest on us as well. We believe in ? Well why not.
