#NBATopShotThis: Garland's full-court dime to Sexton

This Cleveland Cavalier backcourt is a ton of fun!

Darius Garland and Collin Sexton are building a strong chemistry on court in their second season together and this full-court dime is just the latest example. 

Off a missed Pistons shot in the third quarter, Garland receives the ball just inside his own 3-point line, quickly seeing Sexton's streaking run to the basket. 

With three Detroit defenders in front of him, he sent a laser bounce pass all the way down the court, which Sexton collected without breaking stride, laying it in for an easy two points. 

Garland finished with 23 points and six rebounds, while Sexton had 28 points and seven rebounds as the Cavs fell to the Pistons 109-105. Cleveland sits 13th in the East standings at 20-37, 4.0 games back of the final Play-In seed.

Garland currently has four moments on the Top Shot Marketplace, ranging in price from $10 to as much as $999 (USD). The most a Garland moment has sold for on the Marketplace is $5,899 (USD).
