The 2017 EuroBasket group stage is in the books as the tournament now moves on to the knockout stage. The group stage featured a lot of impressive plays, including some great highlight-reel dunks.

FIBA compiled its picks for the Top 5 dunks of the group stage in a video posted on its official YouTube channel. Their list includes dunks from a trio of young NBA players, Kristaps Porzingis, Lauri Markkanen, and Juancho Hernangomez. Dunks from Tornike Shengalia and Georgios Printezis were also included.

While the video didn’t assign rankings on those dunks, Porzingis’ one-handed putback looks like the most impressive of the bunch. The athleticism the 7-foot-3 Knicks big man showed on that play was incredible.

Markkanen’s drive-by dunk was also pretty nice and a bit surprising. The incoming Chicago Bulls rookie is known as more of a knockdown outside shooter but he showed on that play that he also has a bit of speed and explosiveness to his game. After seeing that, don't be too surprised if Markkanen throws down some of those dunks in his rookie year.
