Rams Superstar WR Puka Nacua Broke The Internet With His Filthy Dunk In The NBA All-Star Celebrity Game (VIDEO)
If Los Angeles Rams superstar wide receiver Puka Nacua decides to quit football early (for whatever reason), he might want to consider taking up a career in pro basketball.
Nacua participated in Friday’s NBA Celebrity All-Star Game, which was part of the weekend’s festivities. The game featured “Team Shannon” (for Pro Football Hall of Famer and ESPN analyst Shannon Sharpe), against “Team Stephen A. ” (for ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith).
The Rams’ 2023 rookie sensation was must-watch TV throughout the game, breaking the internet on this jaw-dropping slam dunk late in the first quarter:
Team Shannon held on for a 100-91 victory over Team Stephen A. The league will bring back the Eastern Conference vs. Western Conference format for this year’s All-Star Game, which will take place on Sunday at the Indiana Pacers’ home venue of Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
The 22-year-old Nacua pieced together one of the greatest rookie seasons in NFL history, finishing with 105 receptions for 1,486 yards and six touchdowns. Nacua helped the Rams to a surprise 10-7 record and postseason appearance.
LA lost to the Detroit Lions on Super Wild Card Weekend. In that game, Nacua caught nine passes for 181 yards and a touchdown.
