Spurs' Jonathon Simmons Dribbles Ball Between Defender's Legs on Way to Layup

San Antonio Spurs guard Jonathon Simmons may not have intended to nutmeg Chicago Bulls forwardย Cristiano Felicio, but when the defender got in his way, the ball-handler had no option but to get fancyโ€”and disrespect the defender in the process.

Simmons found himself getting hounded by Chicago Bulls defenders beyond the three-point line, so he dug into his bag of tricks to get loose. When he encountered Felicio on the move near the top of the key, the Spurs guard got past his defender by bouncing the ball between his legs.

Not only that, but he was able retrieve the ball and continue his drive to the hoop, finishing with a layup. So smooth.

Simmons dropped 22 points in a 79-76 loss.
