Saturday's "Capital Punishment" summer-league exhibition showdown between Washington D.C.'s Goodman League and Los Angeles' Drew League promised a lot of highlight plays, and early on, things certainly did not disappoint. The Drew League got off to a fast start, but that ended pretty quickly thanks to this play.
↵On this play, the two stars in the game hooked up for an awesome alley-oop highlight. John Wall of the Wizards pushed the ball up the court and lobbed it up to Kevin Durant. Despite a defender being in the way, Durant slammed it down and ignited the crowd at Trinity College.
↵Many, many highlights have followed, but none can match the energy that resulted from that opening play. Later, Durant returned the favor, lobbing a ball up to Wall for an alley-oop of his own. Wall didn't slam it nearly as emphatically as Durant, but at least things were all square now.
