Welcome to The Daily Yam, bringing you the top play from the night before, anything else you might have missed, and what to look forward to today. It’s your one-stop shop when you skipped last night’s action, or have forgotten what day it is. Last night, Tyson Chandler’s beastly oop from Raymond Felton brought Knicks fans to their feet — if only for a moment.

Welcome to The Daily Yam, SportsGrid’s newest feature, bringing you the top play from the night before, anything else you might have missed, and what to look forward to today. It’s your one-stop shop when you’ve missed last night’s action, and/or have forgotten what day it is. Today, we celebrate the yam that was Montrezl Harrell grabbing the ball 12 feet out of the air and throwing it down on Michigan.

Isn’t it the best when LeBron (and Dwyane Wade, in this instance) does something that is basically impossible, but looks really easy for him? Yeah, the full-court alley-oop applies. Lovely GIF (and video), after the jump.

It’s not a rare sight to see a Raymond Felton-Tyson Chandler alley-oop these days, but during last night’s game against the Miami Heat, the play was especially important. No Carmelo Anthony, no Amar’e Stoudemire, no Iman Shumpert. The Knicks were shorthanded, but no matter – Raymond Felton went off for 27 points and 7 assists in New York’s 112-92 victory, the second 20-point win over Miami this season.

Even though this one came on a simple fast break, and Blake threw it down with elegance and respect, placing the ball in the hoop and barely making contact with the rim, there’s something thunderous about everything he does. The anticipation might be the best part, knowing that Lob City is coming. YES, ANOTHER ONE.

Hey look, it’s Chris Paul making a nice pass and Blake Griffin dunking the ball! Nice to know that Lob City is back in business. Griffin actually got a technical foul on the play for yapping away at Paul Millsap, but we think it was worth it. Who said the NBA preseason couldn’t be exciting?

Usually, the point guard throws the lob pass to the forward, who then dunks it with the appropriate level of force. But in Oklahoma City (or, in this situation, when the Oklahoma City Thunder play in San Antonio) there are no such rules. There is only the scoring of points, and however that gets done is fine by them. Video after the jump.

Question: Should the Wizards sign Chris Brown for next season? The answer, of course, is no. But the thought has to cross your mind for a moment after the watching singer/rapper/dancer/loose cannon run the break and hit John Wall for an alley-oop. Video after the jump.

Blake Griffin is a man of many talents. He can dunk the ball. He can star in Kia Optima commercials. He can really dunk the ball. And now he can even help others to dunk the ball. Blake was in a giving mood last night, and hooked DeAndre Jordan up with a perfect lob for the slam. It seems there’s a little point guard in all of us. Video after the jump.
