It was all premeditated, no matter how much Danny Wolf said it was a joke.

Prior to Monday’s clash with the Hornets, the rookie was going around to his Nets teammates, telling them he was going to “catch a body,” he admitted after the 116-103 win .

He felt like he had missed out on an opportunity in Saturday’s game against Milwaukee. So, as the Nets held the lead in the fourth quarter, Wolf saw an opening and took it.

With nearly two minutes to play, Egor Dëmin passed the ball off to Wolf at the top of the key. Unguarded, he sprinted down the lane for a poster dunk over Miles Bridges. The Nets bench was thrown into hysterics.
