Amari Upshaw is that GUY!

Passing up good shots for GREAT shots. That’s just one facet of Amari’s game that separates him from his peers. He easily could’ve yanked a triple off the swing but he opts to pump fake, take a dribble & unleash a beautiful pass on a rope to his big man for a dunk. Special.
