Richard Solomon delivered one of the top highlights in Europe this season by throwing down a game-winning dunk at the buzzer of the French Leaders Cup semifinal of Dijon against Monaco.
With just 0.6 seconds left and the score tied 81 – 81, Solomon received an alley-oop pass from inbounds by Axel Julien to dunk the ball and send Dijon to the tournament’s title game with an 83 – 81 win.
