During Monday’s preseason game against the Portland Trail Blazers, Phoenix Suns fans were treated to some highlights from Bol Bol.

Bol signed with the team a couple of months ago and is hoping to get a lot of time on the court in 2023-24.

He might not be in every game but he is going to make every moment count just like he did on Monday night.

A video shared by the NBA on Twitter showed Bol pulling off an impressive pump fake and dunk over the Blazers.

The crowd understandably went wild.

Bol Bol pump fake and slam!

These last few years have been a rollercoaster for Bol and his growing, loyal fanbase.

When he first got his start in the league, he played for the Denver Nuggets and was averaging 5.7 points and 2.7 rebounds a game.

He didn’t find his rhythm and couldn’t secure a consistent place on the roster.

During his last season with the Nuggets, Bol only participated in 14 games and logged just a bit more than 5 minutes per game.

But things changed when Bol moved to the Orlando Magic.

During his sole season with that youthful squad, Bol averaged 9.1 points and 5.8 rebounds a game.

He played for more minutes and even started in 33 games.

Orlando allowed Bol the opportunity to shine and people took notice.

Signing with the Suns gives Bol more chances to show his skills but it will also be more challenging to get minutes.

The roster is much deeper in Phoenix which means Bol will likely make fewer appearances in games.

However, if he shows off like he did on Monday night, Bol could become a fun and important part of the team’s second unit.
