Watch Al Horford’s Platano Power, Game-Winning Put-Back in Slow-Mo

Dominican basketball player Al Horford, the son of former NBA player Tito Horford, was the star for the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night. Finishing with 23 points, 11 rebounds, and five blocks, Horford’s efforts paid off, giving the Hawks a 3-2 lead over the Washington Wizards in the seven game series. In a very dramatic final, Horford scored 1 of the 2 go-ahead shots in the last 15 seconds of the game.

The Atlanta Hawks are one win away from their first trip to the Eastern Conference Finals in 36 years.
