Among Adams’ highlights this season are:

The Screen

The highlight of the century was this incredible screen on Patrick Beverly during the playoffs. Adams pancaked the Rockets player, and Thunder fans everywhere rejoiced.

The Piggyback Ride

After dunking on Hassan Whiteside early in the season, Adams went for a little piggyback ride to top it off. It was a comical way to finish a very impressive bucket.

The Intentional

Adams may not have been as impressive in the playoffs, but this play is an exception. After missing a foul shot, he grabbed the rebound, and passed it to Russell Westbrook for the 3. Commentators speculate that he intentionally missed the free throw (which he probably did), in order to get the assist to Westbrook. If that’s the case, it’s a really powerful look at Adams’ ability to make plays and think quick on his feet.

Those Dunks

Adams racked up multiple dunks and hook shots this season, and this one was a great example of those satisfying baskets.

Off the Court

Not all of Adams’ highlights are on the hardwood. He’s been known for his humorous quips off-the-court, and the below interview proves he’s still got it.
