Not much has gone right for Atlanta Hawks swingman Cam Reddish in his rookie season, but he showcased some of the explosive athleticism that made him a lottery pick in the 2019 NBA Draft on Sunday evening against the Brooklyn Nets.
Reddish took it hard to the cup for a thunderous two-handed jam over Jarrett Allen and Joe Harris.

Talk about a rack attack.
Cam Reddish will surely relish these moments when he can get them, especially since it has been a rough year for him with the struggling Hawks. Entering Sunday's game against the Nets, he is averaging just 8.0 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game
The 20-year-old rookie also ranks second-to-last among all qualified rookies with a .322 field goal percentage. Reddish entered Sunday's game with a 5.9 player efficiency rating and -1.2 win shares, both of which place him towards the bottom of the rookie leaderboard.
Despite his struggles, Reddish is getting opportunities with the Hawks. He started in 24 of his first 35 appearances, averaging over 25 minutes per game. Maybe plays like this will help spark him in the second half of the season.
