John Wall: Washington Wizards star dribbles between Hassan Whiteside's legs

Nov. 16 (UPI) -- Washington Wizards guard John Wall pulled off a ridiculous full-speed dribble through an opponent's legs Wednesday night.

That opponent was seven foot, 265 pound Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside. The play went down with the Wizards leading 19-15 in the first quarter at AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami.

Wall stole the ball from Heat forward James Johnson to kick-start the play. The blazing fast point guard went straight into a cross over dribble after making the steal. When the ball came to his right hand, he fired it forward, in between Whiteside's wide-open legs. Wall then accelerated up the court to regain his dribble. He split Heat guards Tyler Johnson and Dion Waiters for a right-handed lay-up attempt.

The shot rolled off the front of the rim, but Otto Porter Jr. followed Wall for the rebound and slam put-back.

Wall scored a game-high 27 points in the 102-93 victory. He added six assists, four rebounds, two blocks and the steal. Whiteside had 14 points and 21 rebounds in the loss. Wall is now averaging 20.8 points, 9.4 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game for the Wizards.

The four-time All-Star leads the Wizards to another matchup against the Miami Heat at 7 p.m. Friday at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C.
