New York Knicks second-year forward Kristaps Porzingis is not taking long to master the art that is the Dirk Nowitzki fadeaway.
The young gun put his imitation skills to the test as he busted out a one-legged fadeaway off the glass over Dallas Mavericks rookie Dorian Finney-Smith.
Smooth as butter.

But again, when there is a guy like Porzingis who is three inches taller than the iconic German pulling stuff like this, it already was unfair — now it gets even more ridiculous.
Not only that, but when he's not fading away in front of opponents nine inches shorter than him, he's crossing over cats like it's normal for a guy his size to have a handle that slick.

Nowitzki sat out with a sore achilles, but we're sure these thoughts ran through his head. “Stop it, man. Just stop it!”
