I think I'm honestly more impressed with Spud Webb than anyone else. Anyone who is 6'10" can jump, dunk, and make it flashy. Webb's dunking required insane precision timing. He's barely getting up there. But the fact that he is at 5'7" and delivering those dunks is insanely impressive to me.
The one he did where it wouldn't have been a travel. That is the best one. Where he just casually dribbles up and does that nasty one handed 360 8:08. So damned impressive. Nate's one over Spud was insane as well. 6:11
@@Everythingmedia_ nope he got 50 for that dunk. But you dont win dunk contest with a single dunk. You have to be best overall and Lavine was better overall
Vince’s elbow dunk still had the greatest and most unique reaction of all time. All other 50 dunks had the crowd cheering. That one silenced the building
It's insane because it looks like a standard one-handed dunk. He didn't alley oop it, two hand it, didn't spin, didn't put it through his legs, nothing particularly impressive until you realize that he didn't *just* dunk the ball, he put his WHOLE FOREARM in the net with it and hung there. Just about everyone in the NBA can dunk the ball one-handed. Only someone with Carter's creativity and hops could pull off what he did.

@@floflorian6085 True.. just look at those court-side dudes getting on the court every time a player dunks, as in disbelief... like a bunch of actors, it's embarassing...
Back here after the 2022 dunk contest to remind myself of what GREAT dunks look like. Still never seen anyone dunk with such effortless grace & precision as Zach Lavine though, what a GUY!!!
I think when Aaron Gordon got cheated twice, players just decided not to waste their time on this contest. I mean both times it should have been tie. The man has more 50 pt dunks in the history of this competition and NO trophy. NBA can't afford 2 trophies when it's so close?
Vince Carter is unquestionably the greatest dunker of all time. He marked the beginning of the modern dunk contest. He had the perfect combination of athleticism, power, finesse. creativity, and swagger. All the other dunkers in this video have some of these but not all. People like to bring up Jason Richardson, Zach Lavine, and Aaron Gordon as they have all performed dunks that are more difficult from a technical standpoint, but they didn't have the same flair that VC had. If we were just considering dunk contests then I would admit that VC only barely edges out and all these guys would be in the same conversation. However, if you also consider in-game dunks, then VC blows EVERYONE out of the water and it's not even close.
C'mon now. You seriously gonna compare Dominique Top 100 vs Vince Carter Top 100? I get it was the 80s and there is less footage to work with but it's obvious that Vince's repertoire of dunks is much larger. To be fair, in the 80s, the stuff that Nique was doing was considered very creative at the time. It's why I give Zach Lavine and Aaron Gordon credit for having the most difficult dunks we've yet seen at the NBA level (obviously dedicated pro dunkers like Flight Bros guys have come up with crazier stuff). Was Nique the best power dunker of all time? Absolutely. But as an overall package, he's just not as impressive as Vince.
Carter is the best dunker of all time and has made an ingame dunk that never been repeatet. That dunk there where he jump over a defender and dunk hard on him. best contest mj against nique and gordon against lavine by far the best contest. Gordon got robbed for sure he deserved 1 title the same way got robbed ibaka in his appearence in the contest. The worst contest was east vs west.
i agree with you, Vince Carter is the best dunker of all time. everybody has swagger, thats really a personal opinion, but i think what he has is a combo of flexibility and abdominal and back muscle strength. his dunk had the most in degrees from whole body extension converting whole body flexion, gives you sensation of the power.
Figgy 2005--Zach and Arron is like BMW vs Mercedes going head to head. Jordan and Dominique was great for its time. But these young cats surpassed them in terms of creativity, originality and showmanship. Can't forget what Vince did, but his competition pretty much conceded, and understandably. In terms of head to head competition, Zach and Arron is the new gold standard.
And yet I play NBA 2K, and I do a 360 windmill catch off the glass from a teammate as I jump over four other guys and two motorcycles and I score a 36. That's some straight up discrimination.
Can we appreciate Steve Nash doing a perfect header to Amare Stoudemire at 5:14 for a moment? Although honestly, bouncing the ball off the backboard straight to where Nash was standing is also pretty impressive
Exactly. What was once spectacular has now become athletically humdrum. Even Jordan's vintage all-star dunks did not match Vince's all-time, next-level video-game-come-to-life dunks. That performance at the all-star game he did ruined me for life. I'm bored by nearly everybody else. Since that time, every NBA dunk contest has paled and failed in comparison.
I swear that 360 degree dunk by Terence Stansbury @2:19, was the cleanest 360 i have ever seen. Underrated dunk, i mean come on, he started rotating in mid air 😳 others start their rotation before jumping.

RageCage1701 It is true jordan was an amazing athlete and did great dunks. It s just that after the first free throw line dunk he repeated the dunk multiple times and still got 50’s. I believe a 50 should only be awarded to insane, groundbreaking dunks like the first free throw line dunk.
Easily, they passed up Jordan vs Nique. Jordan vs Dominique is a classic, but the dunks Gordon and Lavine were doing were all impressive and against each other in the same contest. Shit.
It was pretty damn fancy at the time, people need to realize that it's an evolution, without Jordan then vc may not have been as innovative, without vc maybe Lavigne and Gordon aren't the same.
One of the dumbest moves EVER is when Dwight jumped to grab that 12 foot rim BEFORE executing that dunk. He took out all of the drama out of it because everyone saw he could do it easily.
Richardson is one of the best ever but he had a certain stiffness about him compared to VC and MJ. He just was not as fluid in the air as them, something lacked. Plus he was one dimensional as he could ONLY dunk off two feet, and most of his dunks were variations of VC's.
Its crazy how some of these dunk are considered the greatest dunks of all time but i do the same thing in 2k while jumping over a F-150 and still get a 35
That Aaron Gordon dunk is awfully nice, but you do get a boost from jumping over someone like that (all the professional dunkers say so, which is why they're always jumping over someone). Personally, the dunk I like the most is Gordon's 360 scoop with the Mail-man cock-back with his other hand while the mascot was spinning. Also, Oladipo's dunk was sick! McGee's 2-ball, 2-basket dunk is way underrated as well!
Vince’s 360 against the grain windmill immediately made EVERYONE get up out their seats as they were shocked AND amazed AND THEN When Vince put his arm in the rim, just look at the crowd: everyone in the crowd is at first unsure of what their eyeballs had just witnessed…priceless exhibition of dunking
I was there with my son and I never had witness anything like it and will never forget that all star weekend.Shocked was an understatement..Vince went hard out there in Oakland..
@soldier2009 Wrong. The guy who dunks alone is always more impressive than the one who is jumping over people, grabbing ball from their heads. You can always see the latter pushing down on the lower guy getting that extra air time. 2016 was judged perfectly.
So the guy that copied the dunk gets a 50? So a guy that does a overrated near FT line windmill dunk was enough to tie with a guy who cleared a guy's head while sitting in mid air? Lavine was sponsored by Drake, Drake is from Toronto, the all star game was in Toronto. Gordon was robbed
This was super cool to watch, but to the video editor: I would recommend putting these in order by year, that way we could see how the "50 point dunk" has evolved over the years.
Don't get me wrong Jordan is the goat, but anyone else feel like his dunks in this video were overrated? If someone pulled those dunks off in a contest today it wouldn't get more than a 45
Anytime we see old footage of player dunking including dominique and julius erving they dont look as good as the new dunks we see. To me the footage of back then didnt look as crisp or good as now and the dunks today are more creative. If you watch jordan clips when he was in Washington compared to now you can see a drastic difference in the footage and how it makes jordan look. He looked better in his washigton wizards clips than his old bulls clips early on..mostly cuz of how the footage looks.
Yes. In 2003 All Stars game footage (HD), Jordan moves look great, and he was 40 years old. So it's most about the video quality. Imagine the 90's Chicago Bulls in HD...that would have been great.
For me the best dunks and memorable moments of the last 20 years (not including the Jordan and Domonique stuff) are -Vince Carter reverse 360 windmill 0:20 -Jason Richardson reverse between the legs from baseline off the bounce 1:24 -Zach Lavine around the world off the bounce (imo one of the best dunks ever, I know Iguodala did it first but Zach’s had more flair) 7:29 -Aaron Gordon over mascot sitting leg dunk 0:48
The only thing that makes them insane is because of the fact that the man was small. The dunks are lame otherwise. I've seen Nate Robinson dunk over so many people in-game that these Spud Webb dunks are kinda just... ok
Ludwig Vonn I don’t think a lot of u younger guys can imagine or think about the impact & amazement seeing a 5’7” guy doing dunks like this in 86. He’s 2 to 3 inches shorter than Robinson. I’m 44. Jordan, Niq, Spudd, are my childhood. They change the whole dunking game. Jordan with his gracefulness, Dominique with his powerfulness, Spudd with his nonchalantness. We are talking about the early & mid 80’s. It was unthinkable to us to see the things these guys were doing. U gotta respect it. They’re far from lame.
Jordan did 2 different dunks and got like 8 50’s. Also I get it was in the 80’s but Dr. J did the free throw line dunk first and people like Ibaka can do that now a days.
Each of MJ's free-throw line dunks were further than Dr. J's as well. Plus, there was no flair to Dr. J's free-throw line dunks; they were exactly the same each time, whereas MJ brought something new to it each time. Also, how many 47-50's did Dominique Wilkins get for doing a windmill literally dozens of times (including two-handed windmills)
Cebalos dunk is just dumb. We know he can see. MJ sideway dunk although is iconic, is also very overrated, nothing special. J Rich off the glass between the legs is very very very under rated... top 3 all time.
MJ's swag and height got him 50, and it was in the sole beggining of the comercialised Nba. Even tho it seems weak comparing to modern day dunks, his thing was and will allways remain above the clouds ^^
He did overuse it. But think about Zach Lavine in the 2016 dunk contest. He did almost every dunk from the foul line, AND robbed AG from the contest win.
Aaron Gordon's dunk is the best dunk in the history of the slam dunk contest and he just lost 2020 dunk contest after getting 5 perfect scores....come on man
I’ve seen every good dunk contest since Jordan beat Wilkins .. that was by far the best dunk contest of all time .. just because everyone was watching and everyone was talking about the dunk contest all week .. and Jordan won on the final dunk .. everyone at my house went crazy .. .. but yes Gordon’s dunk over the mascot was the best dunk I’ve seen in the dunk contest .. that shit was crazy .. i couldn’t believe what I had just saw ..
Nation Gurung dunking is the act of slamming the ball inside the ring. It's counted as a dunk. He threw it in. Its not a lay up, not a shoot, but a dunk. A METEOR DUNKU
Jordan dunks were great for its era, in the late 80's. If you see Dr.J dunks, they seem to be lame compared to Jordan's...but Dr. was a great dunker of the late 70's and early 80's and Jordan's idol. Same story.

RageCage1701 It is true jordan was an amazing athlete and did great dunks. It s just that after the first free throw line dunk he repeated the dunk multiple times and still got 50’s. I believe a 50 should only be awarded to insane, groundbreaking dunks like the first free throw
line dunk.
Who’s here after this trash 2021 dunk contest
Me Lmao
Yes
😅😅😅
Yessir
🤣🤣🤣
LETS GO HOME

Okay
We love Vince
Drew Drew griffy?
Zach lavine and aaron gordon going at it is the best dunk competition i’ve ever seen. History. Don’t @ me.
newthrash1221 💯
Easily, they passed up Jordan vs Nique. Jordan vs Dominique is a classic, but the dunks Gordon and Lavine were doing were all impressive and against each other in the same contest. Shit.
Go watch Vince and Tmac in 2000. That was the best ever.
newthrash1221 EXACTLY
Agree
Jordan and Nique were better players.
Lavine and Gordon were better dunkers.
Michael Jordan doesn't do anything fancy but he literally flies.
amen brother
Keep it simple stupid
Michael Jordan Is Literally Superman LOL
It was pretty damn fancy at the time, people need to realize that it's an evolution, without Jordan then vc may not have been as innovative, without vc maybe Lavigne and Gordon aren't the same.
The dunk contest has changed so much since Jordan's time thiugh
When you realize that Spud Webb's dunks are criminally underrated. 😳
One of the dumbest moves EVER is when Dwight jumped to grab that 12 foot rim BEFORE executing that dunk. He took out all of the drama out of it because everyone saw he could do it easily.
yeah, imo he should've faked he couldn't or struggled to get there
I know they said 12ft but it was clearly only 11ft.
Ball Is Life I agree
Ball Is Life but hey he did the dunk with style
J-Rich was so underrated
Zanetti Captain thank you. Dude was doing video game dunks. Had me jumping out my seat
Richardson was basically a Vince 2.0. He should get credit for it. Best power and style ever.
Richardson is one of the best ever but he had a certain stiffness about him compared to VC and MJ. He just was not as fluid in the air as them, something lacked. Plus he was one dimensional as he could ONLY dunk off two feet, and most of his dunks were variations of VC's.
VCthaGOATdunker stop it.
VCthaGOATdunker agree 100%, and that’s why people forget about him tbh, cuz it really was not as nice as VC’s
Jordan got 50 3 times for the same dunk? Wack
daniel blazing borruel 😂
Exactly lmao
Thats what i was saying and so did zach lavine aaron gordon was more creative zach lavine jumped like 3 time from the free throw
daniel blazing borruel I mean it was Jordan so ofc they had to give him 50s 😂
Masterpoop degree of creativity back then was different than it was here.
2000. Vince Carter's dunk is so dope. And Shaq's reaction says it all.. It's so iconic
9:35
Its crazy how some of these dunk are considered the greatest dunks of all time but i do the same thing in 2k while jumping over a F-150 and still get a 35
💀💀
Conclussion: There are Vince's type of 50s and Ceballos' kind of 50s

Ok, Merrian-Webster, I think your Spanish last name maybe "Señora"(spanish for "Lady") not Senora (spanish for...nothing)
Also, how did you know it wasn't a typo?

His shit sucked so fucking bad
Aaron Gordon got robbed in 2016
But we got 4 extra dunks, though - I say it was worth it XD
Chuy Garza zack lavine copied one of AG's dunks and he pretty much did the same dunk twice
tell me where lavine is living, I'm gonna drop nukes
Dude I commented the same thing the first 10 minutes the video came out....I guess some people get lucky with likes
in the last round tho, his dunk was blunt
Poor Nate Robinson... should've stayed with dunking
I think Iguodala deserved the 2006 contest over Nate Robinson.

You are correct sir.
LETS GOOOO HOMEEEEE
The reverse 360 windmill from Vince is the best dunk of all-time!
Made Shaq look like a kid who just saw a magic trick
His dunk in olympics is the best
TheSystemIsFlawed that dunk isn’t even a 50 today
LuckyC1723...Humiliating a 7 foot center by flying over him? Yeah, that's a 50.
Same for me.
Vince Carter has always been my favoriete player but man was Jason Richardson filthy... my, my, my.
Richardson is insane too
72vince27 aaron gordon sitting on air though
That Aaron Gordon dunk is awfully nice, but you do get a boost from jumping over someone like that (all the professional dunkers say so, which is why they're always jumping over someone). Personally, the dunk I like the most is Gordon's 360 scoop with the Mail-man cock-back with his other hand while the mascot was spinning. Also, Oladipo's dunk was sick! McGee's 2-ball, 2-basket dunk is way underrated as well!
Richardson was the only man ever who actually had even better body motion than Vince. His windmill was even fuller.
72vince27 Jason Richardson’s dunk at 1:24 is still unexplainable till this day.
Vince’s 360 against the grain windmill immediately made EVERYONE get up out their seats as they were shocked AND amazed
AND THEN
When Vince put his arm in the rim, just look at the crowd: everyone in the crowd is at first unsure of what their eyeballs had just witnessed…priceless exhibition of dunking
I was there with my son and I never had witness anything like it and will never forget that all star weekend.Shocked was an understatement..Vince went hard out there in Oakland..
It wasn't even close to a 360 though, had his back to the rim by the time he jumped. 180 at best
9:01
Now they are handing out 50s like halloween candy
THE LUCKY TITAN nah they’re not, it’s harder to get a 50 now the 80’s dunks were weak asf
@@MMLL03 stfu. did you watch this last dunk contest? There was dunks that would get 40 getting 50's.
THE LUCKY TITAN you get a 50, you get a 50, you get a 50!!

So who gon give 50? Jordan dunks? Lol weak asf

Best ever reactions to
I think 2016 dunk contest is one of amazing dunk contest
It would've if they got the winner right. Gordon was robbed
soldier2009 robbed is a very strong word. They both have great dunks so I thought it should of been a tie. They could have going all night.
@soldier2009 Wrong. The guy who dunks alone is always more impressive than the one who is jumping over people, grabbing ball from their heads. You can always see the latter pushing down on the lower guy getting that extra air time. 2016 was judged perfectly.
So the guy that copied the dunk gets a 50? So a guy that does a overrated near FT line windmill dunk was enough to tie with a guy who cleared a guy's head while sitting in mid air? Lavine was sponsored by Drake, Drake is from Toronto, the all star game was in Toronto. Gordon was robbed
soldier2009 how is a free throw line windmill dunk overrated? You sound like a hater right now.
Michael Jordan: *does the same dunk 16 times*
Judges: THAT IS A FIFTY
Bro he jumping from the free throw line ofc it’s a 50
@ThaBoy TITO
You should have been named to the game. u would have shown how versatile U R... 😉✌🏻
@@patrickstar2526 Ik but if you just do the exact same thing with no variety you shouldn’t keep getting a 50
@@patrickstar2526 ibaka did it actually from behind the line and got a 45. It was still 50 bcoz it was MJ.
Even though he scratched, he took off at an angle and kicked like a rudder. Most people that jump from the line square up directly with the rim.
This was super cool to watch, but to the video editor: I would recommend putting these in order by year, that way we could see how the "50 point dunk" has evolved over the years.
It's not an evolution video
seems like an obvious choice
I think it was a good mix to keep your attention all the way through. Kind of went from best to worst to get a 50.
This First Aaron gordon dunk is probably the hardest and most difficult dunk ever done in a dunk contest
And then there was that spinning hoverboard dunk. Best runner up by a mile.
He got robbed in my opinion
cool dude or Vince Carter’s 360 windmill and elbow dunk
ummm i think 1:26 is the hardest, imo.
@@chickenrat9444 that elbow dunk is actually called the honey dip
18 years later and Carter still putting in work
Zach and Vince’s Dunks are something else
10:10 best reaction ever 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Think best reaction goes to 0:26
Vince carter the best dunker ever.
dominique
Are you high it’s micheal jord
Celina Koonce nah
Celina Koonce best player but not dunker
Spud. All day long.
Don't get me wrong Jordan is the goat, but anyone else feel like his dunks in this video were overrated? If someone pulled those dunks off in a contest today it wouldn't get more than a 45
kkawesome1234 tell that to Zach Levine
Anytime we see old footage of player dunking including dominique and julius erving they dont look as good as the new dunks we see. To me the footage of back then didnt look as crisp or good as now and the dunks today are more creative. If you watch jordan clips when he was in Washington compared to now you can see a drastic difference in the footage and how it makes jordan look. He looked better in his washigton wizards clips than his old bulls clips early on..mostly cuz of how the footage looks.
Yes. In 2003 All Stars game footage (HD), Jordan moves look great, and he was 40 years old. So it's most about the video quality. Imagine the 90's Chicago Bulls in HD...that would have been great.
natanael mercado no the dunks was just badic
Are you 12? Those guys started all of this and IMHO, they had more charisma than the guys in today's NBA.
For me the best dunks and memorable moments of the last 20 years (not including the Jordan and Domonique stuff) are
-Vince Carter reverse 360 windmill 0:20
-Jason Richardson reverse between the legs from baseline off the bounce 1:24
-Zach Lavine around the world off the bounce (imo one of the best dunks ever, I know Iguodala did it first but Zach’s had more flair) 7:29
-Aaron Gordon over mascot sitting leg dunk 0:48
2:56

Ain't nobody gonna talk about Spud Webb's dunks???? Those were insane BRUH!!!
The only thing that makes them insane is because of the fact that the man was small. The dunks are lame otherwise. I've seen Nate Robinson dunk over so many people in-game that these Spud Webb dunks are kinda just... ok
Ludwig Vonn I don’t think a lot of u younger guys can imagine or think about the impact & amazement seeing a 5’7” guy doing dunks like this in 86. He’s 2 to 3 inches shorter than Robinson. I’m 44. Jordan, Niq, Spudd, are my childhood. They change the whole dunking game. Jordan with his gracefulness, Dominique with his powerfulness, Spudd with his nonchalantness. We are talking about the early & mid 80’s. It was unthinkable to us to see the things these guys were doing. U gotta respect it. They’re far from lame.
@@000lowkey why do you think I'm younger I don't know.. you don't represent every human older than 40 lol..
Ludwig Vonn no offense, pardon me, I’m just not use to anyone of older age calling these guys dunks lame. That’s crazy to me.
The man has Hops 5'7 and can dunk? Blessed.
VC elbow dunk gets me every time when I see the players reaction
The first Jason Richardson puts me in awe everytime, that shit was nuts
Jordan did 2 different dunks and got like 8 50’s. Also I get it was in the 80’s but Dr. J did the free throw line dunk first and people like Ibaka can do that now a days.
jared white Jordan didn't travel though. Meaning he could actually do that shit in a game.
Each of MJ's free-throw line dunks were further than Dr. J's as well. Plus, there was no flair to Dr. J's free-throw line dunks; they were exactly the same each time, whereas MJ brought something new to it each time. Also, how many 47-50's did Dominique Wilkins get for doing a windmill literally dozens of times (including two-handed windmills)
Ibaka is 6'11 with a 7'3 wingspan of course he can do it
jared white or Lavine
jared white Jordan does it with grace
Listen spudd webb is only 5'7" and had like 3 dunks on here..... that's ridiculous.... he was amazing
Dion Santana 5'7 is just listed stats just like KD list himself 6'9 no way we can confirm. But spud is crazy to be under 6 feet and do those dunks.
meat loaf we can confirm by seeing him taller then most centers lol
I hope we get a good contest cause last years contest was dead
Kam Teezly agree
Kam Teezly that's how they are man, 2015 and 2016 with LaVine and Gordon raised the bar waaay too high lol
Well 2016 was amazing...but last year was sooo bad
It just upsets me not seeing zach lavine in it... wish he would have went for a three peat
And curry not in the three point contest is weird too
Spud Webb 🔥the timing and height he has to achieve is amazing
8:16
Shaq's reaction to VC with that big ass camcorder never gets old 😂
gobsmacked
Vince Carter was the pioneer of the modern dunk. Before him it was all just jumping from the foul line and doing a simple 360
That forearm dunk changed my life!
@All Skill No Luck very true. JR Rider was the first to do the between the legs in a dunk contest
@All Skill No Luck I would credit Dominique with perfecting the windmill.
ikr
And Howard the pioneer of be a clown
Aaron Gordon got robbed.
Well then he should go to the police.
lol bro. Thats exactly what you doing about my comment
Get over it, people. Maybe he should've won, but that's the past.
Omg that’s exactly what I was gonna say.
one best dunk doesnt me he should get the win
Nobody:
Literally nobody:
Aaron Gordon's dunk coach: Imagine dunking as going underwater, you gotta hold your breath.
Aaron: Copy that
Cebalos dunk is just dumb. We know he can see.
MJ sideway dunk although is iconic, is also very overrated, nothing special.
J Rich off the glass between the legs is very very very under rated... top 3 all time.
Peter K j Rich's reverse through the legs is also very underrated
MJ's swag and height got him 50, and it was in the sole beggining of the comercialised Nba. Even tho it seems weak comparing to modern day dunks, his thing was and will allways remain above the clouds ^^
Not only that, with MJ you have to look at how he moves the ball around. That's where his creativity lies: ball/hand movement
Peter K I think you're spot on there.
Baron Davis tried the Ceballos Blindfold (but with a windmill) one year and he missed the rim by a foot and a half.
Gordon was robbed!!!!
Try ME a
Iggy, Gordon, Wilkens and McGee all got robbed respectively
he had the best dunk that night but he didn't win due to the system.
Try ME yes indeed
Yeah Gordan did get robbed . LaVine did a hell of a job , but Gordan definitely won that contest
5:24 Nash did most of the work for that 50 lol
Queen Nai nash did 33% of the work...
Way more then that it was a simple dunk
Queen Nai The dunk had 3 parts. Nash did 1 part= 1/3= 33% Nash has played soccer and heading the ball like that is pretty easy for a soccer player.
But when they commentators speak they talked mostly about the pass the dunk didn't have any flare
Queen Nai because Americans aren’t skilled at soccer. Especially not back then. The dunk wasn’t bad.
All of them are special but for me 0:48 is one of the greatest .Also 7:45 Vince put almost whole arm in .💪
7:30
1. Gordon
2. Lavine
3. Carter
4. Richardson
5. Howard
RILEY WINTERLAND it is tho
Spud Webb dunk was amazing for his height 💯
He is taller than Nate
I know Ima get killed in the comments but Jordan overused that damn free throw line dunk
and Dominique didn't overuse his windmill?
Did the comments kill u yet
Nazim Jordan he did different versions of the windwill though. Plus dominique had more dunks in general.
Dylan Ceaser im a Jordan fan but he did
He did overuse it. But think about Zach Lavine in the 2016 dunk contest. He did almost every dunk from the foul line, AND robbed AG from the contest win.
Aaron Gordon's dunk always gives me chills everytime I watch it. Damn!
