Check out the top ten plays from Saturday night in the NBA.

Markelle Fultz wowed the Philadelphia crowd with a smooth spinning lay-up and a one-handed fast-break dunk in the 76ers narrow win over the Charlotte Hornets.

The guard only scored 10 points in the 105-103 home victory but four of those were unmissable, as the No 1 draft pick looks to impress in his second year with Philadelphia after an injury-plagued campaign last season.

Fultz's performance combined with Joel Embiid's game-high 27 points helped the Sixers (3-3) to maintain their unbeaten home record this season (3-0).

The Detroit Pistons' (4-1) unbeaten start though is over after losing at home to the Boston Celtics (4-2) in a 109-89 loss which saw Celtics guard Terry Rozier rise high for a huge dunk which got the Celtics bench going.

There were plenty of great moments too in the San Antonio Spurs' (3-2) win over the LA Lakers (2-4) including two big throwdowns from DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Kuzma, and an historic basket from LeBron James.
