If you've watched Duke throughout the NCAA Tournament, you've probably noticed Jahlil Okafor's affinity for palming the ball when he receives it in the post, extending his arm straight out like he's holding a tangerine, or something. You could play a drinking game and get sufficiently buzzed for all the time commentators spend on Okafor's enormous paws, but ESPN's Shannon Spake was kind enough to take an up close and personal pic of what it truly looks like when Okafor palms the rock.
Look at that. Just look at it. This photo looks like something an ancient civilization left behind after they were destroyed by some giant wreaking having on their city. It's no wonder Okafor looks like a man amongst boys, even in the Final Four. It's what allows him to do stuff like the below, at will.
