Ben Simmons continues to make his case to be the No. 1 overall pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, as the LSU freshman threw down a nasty dunk Saturday.

In LSU’s 77-75 loss to No. 1 Oklahoma, Simmons crossed over his defender Khadeem Lattin, cut to the hoop, and finished with a reverse flush. Simmons finished the game with 14 points, nine rebounds, five assists, five turnovers, and two steals.

Isaiah Cousins nailed a jumper to give Oklahoma the lead in the final seconds, and Lattin got a block on LSU’s Tim Quarterman, which sealed the win.
