Jaylen Brown delivered a ferocious posterizing dunk in Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday night at the American Airlines Center in Dallas.
Celtics star Brown made a bold move to tackle Luck in the final seconds of the third quarter and tucked it in to lead Boston to a 106-99 win over the Mavericks.
However, this isn’t Brown’s first big play in the series.
Brown hit Luka Doncic with a powerful cross between the legs at TD Garden in Game 1, freeing up the lane before curling the entire ring for an electrifying slam dunk.
He left Doncic behind.
Besides the flashy dunks, Brown has been a big presence in the NBA Finals.
As of Wednesday, the 27-year-old was averaging 21.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.5 assists through the first two games of the series against Dallas.
Brown had 30 points, eight rebounds and eight assists in Wednesday’s win, helping the Mavericks put themselves over the edge.

Brown also surpassed Mavericks coach Jason Kidd in 3-pointers made in the postseason through Game 3, taking 237.
Currently trailing 3-0 in the series, the Mavericks will look to stay alive in Game 4 on Friday in Dallas.
