Nah he did a regular spin move to get away from the D then tried a Vince Carter 360 lay... only difference... well he's half man, but not half amazing.

He’s shooting 0% from 3 on nearly 4 attempts per game...

I mean Lebron would have gotten away with it and nobody would have said anything. Hard to blame Reddish for trying.

Some players on this level do not know the rules. It always surprised me when I reffed a bit and it was age group similar to early college.

he never put his pivot back down so the refs got it right, there was no travel, you can lift it as long as you dont put it back down without shooting or passing the ball https://official.nba.com/rule-no-10-violations-and-penalties/ section 13. Like the rest of him though, it looked really good, but if it went in thatd be great too.

The « it would have been good if it went in » crowd are really funny. There’s a reason why it missed so badly despite being a shot from the restricted area. He was out of control and it’s a bad move (not sure it can be called a move if you've never practiced it before).

If a guy shoots from Half court with 20 seconds left on the shot clock, would people be saying: « it would have been cool IF it went in »?

that wasn't a "move" ...... that was him getting himself into trouble and throwing up a crazy shot.

After closer inspection, you are right. It's not a travel.

It's a travel in every league that isn't the NBA.

he cant finish in traffic at all.
no body control once he leaves his feet so has to try ground moves like a smaller non explosive guard who has to.

Good idea but pretty much impossible to convert with the way he was aiming for the basket. He would have had a better chance if he tried to bank it. This is basically a John Wall's in air spin move + a pivot spin move beforehand. But JW's spin move was always controlled, i.e., slow and calculated. This one looked like he improvised, which to his credit was creative.

It's the type of unchatacteristic move you try when the opponents are too good for you. Stuff you've never practiced before.
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

I think that indicates the defesne is tight enough and to pass the ball. Rookie move is all.
