James Worthy · He wasn’t known as ‘Big Game James’ by accident. In a momentum-shifting turn of events in Game 6 of the NBA Finals, James Worthy affirms his nickname, first coming up with a critical steal before scrambling to save the loose ball and diving on the floor to keep it from careening out of bounds. With a perfectly-executed flick of his left hand, the practically horizontal Worthy deflects the rock to an all-alone Magic Johnson, who streaks down the floor to finish the job with an iconic slam. The Boston Celtics never recovered in the pivotal matchup, as the seven-time All-Star and future Hall of Famer earned his second of three championship rings, posting 22 points, seven rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks in the June 14, 1987 win. · State of Mint
