April 30 (UPI) -- Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown did his best impersonation of Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan in Tuesday night's Game 2 against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Brown took a pass from Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving and drove past Bucks forward Nikola Mirotic. Milwaukee star Giannis Antetokounmpo met Brown at the rim and reached out both arms to deny the guard's scoring chance.
Instead of going straight up for a dunk or layup, Brown quickly contorted his body in mid-air and made a behind-the-back shot over the outstretched arms of Antetokounmpo.
