Your morning isn’t complete without watching this Kristaps Porzingis put-back dunk

And a requiem to Jean-Marc Mwema’s defensive rebound

NBA: Washington Wizards at New York Knicks Anthony Gruppuso-USA TODAY Sports

Are you waking up late this Saturday morning, my fellow Knicks fan? Well, in that case...HOLY CRAP DO I HAVE SOMETHING TO SHOW YOU.

Kristaps Porzingis had a monster game in Latvia’s 92-64 group stage win over Belgium today. He scored 27 points without making a three pointer, 6 rebounds, 2 steals and a block. Also, no fouls!!!!

But he also momentarily ruined Belgium forward Jean-Marc Mwema’s life after doing this:

That was vintage rookie year (and first half of sophomore year, before the Achilles injury) Kristaps. He looks like he’s playing on a child’s hoop with a Nerf ball.

And he did more stuff:

Because of time zones, I would like to start the #KPbeforedawn hashtag and use it for the remainder of EuroBasket.

Spain (Willy Hernangomez) also got a morning start and are dominating the poor Czech Republic, while Lithuania (Mindaugas Kuzminskas) won’t start their game against Israel until 2:30 PM EST.

Full roundup, forthcoming.
