Stephon Castle’s tomahawk dunk on the Thunder is one of NBA Playoffs’ best ever


The San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder’s matchup in the 2026 Western Conference Finals is destined to go down as an all-timer. Game 1 was a double-overtime instant classic that saw the Spurs take control with all-time performance from Victor Wembanyama, including a logo three-pointer to tie the game from Steph Curry range. How can Game 2 live up to its predecessor? Well, San Antonio guard Stephon Castle did his best by dropping one of the best dunks you will ever seen in the NBA Playoffs.

During the second quarter, Castle took a kickout pass from Wembanyama and attacked the paint with force. He sized up Thunder center Isaiah Hartenstein and ripped a vicious tomahawk slam on his head. Poster dunks don’t get any better than this. Watch the play here:

Castle doesn’t have a reliable jump shot, he’s battled turnover problems throughout his career (with 11 in Game 1), and his handle can be shaky. It doesn’t matter because he plays with so much damn force on both ends of the floor, and he put it all on display with this dunk.

Wembanyama isn’t the only young stud on the Spurs. Castle is a great young player, and he’s proving it in this series.
