NBA playoffs 2022: 'OMG WIGGS,' sports world reacts to Andrew Wiggins' monster dunk over Luka Doncic

NBA, Dallas Mavericks, Golden State Warriors

Dunk of the postseason? Dunk of the postseason. The 2022 NBA playoffs rolled on Sunday night with the Golden State Warriors defeating the Dallas Mavericks 109-100 to take a 3-0 series lead in the Western Conference finals. But the story of the night was centered solely around Andrew Wiggins.

Wiggins, who scored a playoff career-high 27 points, took flight over Doncic midway through the fourth quarter for what was originally ruled an offensive foul. Golden State challenged, and the ruling was Wiggins' elbow to Doncic was incidental contact, giving the Warriors a 93-83 lead.

An old take exposed ...
