If you're above 6ft, can palm the ball, are less than like 20 pounds overweight, and are somewhat athletic/conditioned to jumping off of hardwood, then you can dunk. That sounds like a lot of conditions but it's really not, especially not for an NBA player. That's why no modern NBA player over 6ft has been known to be a dunk virgin. It's pretty much impossible to be in the NBA and be at least 6ft tall and not be athletic enough to dunk. That's why it's never happened since the league got to a certain level of talent. Now when you consider PP fits that basic initial formula, plus a lot more, it's pretty easy to guess that he'd be able to dunk. Also the ability to palm the ball literally requires 4-5 less inches of vertical to dunk, not like PP needs it but it's just an interesting note.
If you find the picture under the basket the dude behind Pritchard had his hands up because he wanted a lob off the backboard but Pritchard dunked it himself 😂
The thing is a lot of people that can’t dunk have the hops to dunk, but not everyone has the ability to palm a basketball, Payton Pritchard is a rim skimmer who can barely reach over the rim, but since he has enough hand strength to palm the ball, he doesn’t need the extra 4-5 inches to rip it down he can just go straight up with one hand and stuff it, if it weren’t for his ability to palm a basketball he wouldn’t be able to dunk.
@@Doobie_AdamsSSB he can finish at the rim, but even though he looks pretty good at doing it, it’s still not easy for him, finishing at the basket isn’t easy for a 6’0 190lb guard like Pritchard, especially when your not super athletic like Ja Morant or Donovan Mitchell, the reason why Pritchard is in the league is because he can shoot the lights out, if his shooting was 15% worse he wouldn’t be in the NBA.
It was at that moment he killed Schroeder's celtic career. Not long after Dennis "passed out" on the bench, he got traded and Prichard took his minutes. That "Cpr" he was receiving on the bench couldn't save his Celtic career. Lol
One thing I just Noticed, but didn't watching every game, when we would be up big Pritchard would try and beat the teams worse. He piled on and on to really rub it in. Look at some of the scores and he was still going at their necks! Killer!!
That's cause Ime starves him for minutes like a hungry dog. Can't say it isn't effective but damn, can't you let the kid hit the 30 minute mark at least on the not so rare occasion that he goes like 4/4 from the 3PT line and doesn't miss a shot the entire game while playing solid defense and making hustle plays?
I knew he was good at Oregon, and I thought it was cool that we drafted him but dammit if I had any clue he had a bag like he’s shown off in Boston! I’m not surprised as much about his shooting and passing as I am his defense, handle, and ability to finish amongst the trees at the rim lol lil homie is NICE!!
i feel like if he keeps playing at the level hes playing he could really be something special,hes very humble i dont think i ever hear him talking trash,hes got great handles and hes able to finish at the rim, peyton could really be something else tho
He should be a starter dude. I base all my skill off of him. He can defend, shoot, he can do it all. Payton I want to do a bball camp with you in 2023- come back to West Linn
My White Brother can Play. I'm calli g for ALL WHITE People to start rooting for our fellow Whites who play Bball, Blacks do it in every other sport. Blacks root for Bubba Wallace in Nascar, not because they know about him but simply because he is Black and a Majority White sport so since Bball is Majority Black we Whites should start showing support to our fellow White players, I know I know it's racist when we do this but it's okay when Blacks do it and I'm trying to show Black Community how dumb it is by acting how they act..tiger woods gold, Serena Williams tennis, they always root for a Black just because they share same skin tone so I want my fellow Whites to start acting this way so Maybe,just Maybe they will see how dumb it is to root for someone just cuz they share same skin tone..Black Community needs to stop seeing color first in everything. I don't view myself as a White man I view myself as an American and I am a human being and yes I'm White but that doesn't define who I am, Black people though they see themselves as Black first and foremost and that attitude has gotta change. No other group does this,not Asians, Not Hispanics, heck not Even African's it is mostly Black Americans..so view yourself as an American first because Black Man fought for USA before we even a country, the Boston Massacre that started off the revolutionary war a Black Man was the first victim from the British and we came and avenged his death! So yes be proud of who you are but stop making being Black define you and if anyone says USA is racist don't even bother responding because this the BEST PLACE ON EARTH for a Black person to be and don't believe me go look at how USA has more Black Millionaires then any other country. We are a the most diverse country In the world by far and it's time y'all stop the victim cycle and step up and be proud to be an American cuz I know there be alot of Africans who would LOVE to live in USA Heck Nigerians are one of the most successful Groups in America and they are Black last I checked but they don't go around saying Black This,Black that..
Happy to see this boy back in rotation doing his thing
How dare you can him a boy, had Pritchard been Black and you called him Boy you would be a racist
* Man
The most exciting player off the bench
Had completely forgot Parker was on the team this year before seeing him pop up in a highlight here. Feels like it was so long ago
Feels like last season
Same with Romeo and Kanter, almost two different teams this year entirely!
Joe Johnson played 5 minutes for us less than four months ago...
Really feels like 2 seasons
I had no clue that he could dunk until he did it in that game. If I'm not mistaken, I believe that was also the game Jaylen yammed on Bamba.
Left handed dunk as well

@@mikeposner8563 I fit those criteria but am on the border, like 6’ in shoes. Never been able to dunk but really haven’t put much effort into it

Dude is more than a shooter has some play making skills and a tough handle
Had no idea his ability to finish at the rim in traffic was so nice!

Giving Schröder CPR is an all-time great bench moment
5:47 I always love this part!!
I have replayed that part like 15 times lol. love the comraderie
It was at that moment he killed Schroeder's celtic career. Not long after Dennis "passed out" on the bench, he got traded and Prichard took his minutes. That "Cpr" he was receiving on the bench couldn't save his Celtic career. Lol
@@markukpokolo6774 I loved Dennis but he and pp didn’t fit just too little of a backcourt . Love seeing 6-5 Derrick white out there with pp
he always somewhat have a sneaky rebound whenever i watch him play
Guys an absolute sniper, good passer, and underrated defender.
The whole Portland sequence it's too much lmaooo PP the GOAT
loved him the first day i seen him join the celtics and nesmith my boy is gonna b a star
timelord calling the bucket before it goes in is so cool
One thing I just Noticed, but didn't watching every game, when we would be up big Pritchard would try and beat the teams worse. He piled on and on to really rub it in. Look at some of the scores and he was still going at their necks! Killer!!
Yea ur not wrong, I think it’s just because he’s the back up PG tho. He plays big minutes when the C’s are already up big
That's cause Ime starves him for minutes like a hungry dog. Can't say it isn't effective but damn, can't you let the kid hit the 30 minute mark at least on the not so rare occasion that he goes like 4/4 from the 3PT line and doesn't miss a shot the entire game while playing solid defense and making hustle plays?
He is a big reason no more leads get blown
That boy cold
very impresses with the editing in this video. love how the extended voice clips carry over from the previous clip
I only found out about this guy in the playoffs, and right away fell in love with his game.
So happy we have John Stockon on our team!
Love the work Tomasz
we really had jabari parker, dennis schroder and enes kanter getting minutes at one point
I have been loving Pritch off the bench. I would like to see a little more confidence but he is a great support to have on both ends.
Big reason why no more leads get blown. Been watching it since January. He been putting teams to bed or stopping runs
If he plays like this in the playoffs we gonna be alright and I like the fact he still gives it his all on defense
They are in fact alright
His matchup for the playoffs will be against Dragic. A very good test for him
Yeah and Dragic is so good at drawing fouls 😬
He better wear something like a cup going against dragic
The future point God of the Celtics im calling it as early as now. Pp11 so much potential
I knew he was good at Oregon, and I thought it was cool that we drafted him but dammit if I had any clue he had a bag like he’s shown off in Boston! I’m not surprised as much about his shooting and passing as I am his defense, handle, and ability to finish amongst the trees at the rim lol lil homie is NICE!!
Kid is going to be big in our finals run. If he can add 10-12/game we'll be cooking.
From Cavite Philippines. welcome. Thank you
Just discovered your channel, bro. AWESOME edits. THANKS
You’re telling me this man did not miss a free throw all season. God damn
Facts i was amazed too
Man this guy is so fun to watch
I guess everyone forgot that Pritchard knows how to play the game of basketball and how to get buckets!
I know Grant had an amazing year shooting, but this dude is by far the best shooter on the squad. Dude is not afraid to let it fly
This shows why he deserves 10-20 mins a game so underrated
i feel like if he keeps playing at the level hes playing he could really be something special,hes very humble i dont think i ever hear him talking trash,hes got great handles and hes able to finish at the rim, peyton could really be something else tho
Betting on PP on 6th man next year!
Love this kid.
Payton will have a title of one of the best sharpshooters someday. Just keep on grinding!
I’ve played with him before he’s my best friends cousin.
Here after the trade chaos lol now he getting a lil pt and more effective
Its been so long I forgot that Jabari Parker and Bruno Fernando were on the team this year lol.
Excellent growth in year 2!☘️☘️☘️
He's fearless like Marcus Smart.
#41 knows what is happening in the moment. Once of the smartest BB players ever.
His talent is unequivocally potent" reliable and ready... Certainly a steal, PP ☘
great shooter
I wish he shot more, he’s super good and has a great form, could become an extremely dangerous PG if not already hard to defend
Payton Pritchard is going to be well known in a couple of years.
man is it good not seeing Enes Freedom anywhere near this team anymore
very athletic guy
I like the kid, no mouth, just playing ball.
Pritchard rabbit so much fun to watch i just love it when he shooting 3's the celtics should make him a starter stop wasting his time.
I want to see him play that pesky defense!
The Lex Fridman of the NBA
John Stockton jr
Wish he played more this season 😓
He should be a starter dude. I base all my skill off of him. He can defend, shoot, he can do it all. Payton I want to do a bball camp with you in 2023- come back to West Linn
Next year mip 😮💨
Pritchard will cook kryrie
More like 🔐 him down. I've seen him do it.
One of the better #11s the Cs had.
celtic point god
We cloned Markus Smart except there was a mistake and the offensive and defensive stat got switched.
I saw him run at BC this summer with g league players and he dominated.
Amazing how much better any NBA player is than everyone else.
My dude was going off so hard his teammates got a tech for celebrating God damn that's talent
Sometimes, when Smart has a brain fort-I want more playing time for Pritcard.
Who else is a Warriors fan that's looking at what Pritchard could add to the team before the trade deadline?
Pritchard gonna be the reason no one wears #11 again
He’s like Alex Caruso but on stereroids
PP will score 50 against the Nets this series
Celtics will have to pay him if they want to keep him, cuz he's not gonna like being a bench player.
The next Steph Curry
hes better
Give more minutes for PP
For future investment
He nicer than Marcus smart fa show
Between him and Sam.. we are good on set snipers
if gsw get this guy, might be over
VERY HUMBLE PLAYER
Looks like it's gonna be a White Boy Summer 😎
Yay! My husband!
2:27 is such a travel
개잘한다 진짜
He’s too strong
She likes tonny parker
Parker was/is better than some of the end of the bench players the Celtics currently have. A victim of the owner's goal of avoiding taxes.
steve kerr 2.0
Don’t mention PP in the same class as that clown 🤣🤣
