Boston Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving scored an incredible basket over the top of Golden State Warriors defender Andre Iguodala.
The star, now nicknamed 'Uncle Drew' after starring in the hit basketball movie last year, showed off the brilliant ball-handling skills that are his trademark as he weaved his way through the Warriors defence and into the paint.
Two-time NBA All Defensive selection Iguodala kept Irving on a short leash but that did not matter as the Celtics star danced his way around him and then somehow found a way to loft the ball over his outstretched arm and into the hoop.
It was a brilliant basket on a night where Irving notched an impressive double-double of 32 points and 10 assists, while also grabbing six rebounds and two steals but it wasn't enough to prevent defeat for the home side at the TD Garden.
