Manu Ginobili: Top 10 Moments of his Career

9. Slam Over Yao Ming

Very few players can say that they dunked over a 7 foot 6 player, and Manu Ginobili is one of them.

With 4.31 left in the game, Ginobili intercepted a loose pass from Yao Ming and fearlessly drove the lane right at the towering Yao Ming flying high to throw down a two-handed jam right in the face of Houston Rockets’ 7 foot 6 center. No matter his age and no matter who was at the rim, Manu just went for it.

Yao ended the game with 28 points to go along with 13 rebounds and Ginobili scored a team-high 23 points for the Spurs as the Houston Rockets went onto to beat San Antonio 89-81.

Although Yao got the final say in the game, Ginobili’s throw down remained the highlight of the game.
