Explain One Play: Otto Porter Jr ends Xmas game by beating the Phoenix Box-and-One D on Steph Curry

A list of all Explain One Play articles and videos is at The new Explain One Play index.

The Warriors won a hard-fought, well-played Christmas day game in Phoenix to take over first place in the league. 2021.12.25.GSW-PHX came down to the last three minutes of the game. Phoenix tried springing a box and one defense on Steph Curry down the stretch, and the Warriors needed Otto Porter Jr., who up till now has been doing a lot of the dirty work like rebounding and defending and chipping in points here and there, to go nuts and beat that defense, so we're going to analyze these plays.

Co-starring Gary Payton II, Kevon Looney and Draymond Green. With DeAndre Ayton, Cam Payne, Mikal Bridges and Chris Paul.

Otto Porter Jr has been an absolute baller these last few games. Crushing it on defense, clutch rebounds in key moments, *and* throwing more daggers than a Shiv build in Slay the Spire! Dude could probably get a max contact if his availability continues to be this reliable. But would a max contact bring him smiles of joy like that?

So happy you broke down that GP2 -> OPJ pass on the broken play... wasn't sure what the heck happened live. Those three shots by OPJ felt so much like Klay... he was doing his best #11 impression... giving us a sample for what's to come...
