BEST Dunker From Every Decade In NBA History

[nonstop]

Who's the BEST dunker in the NBA right now?

[jose_of]

Any dunk related video should have Dr.J and Vince Carter

[chez]

2010's is debatable. Giannis, Blake, Lavine, Lebron, WB

[docholiday]

Elgin Baylor is arguably the greatest loser in nba history damn that’s cold 🥶

[portcityrep]

90's best dunker was Shawn Kemp hands down

[EnduringArts]

Jordan had a couple of great dunks in the '90s, but most of his spectacular air show was in the '80s. As far as dunks go on the 90s... Shawn Kemp owned the entire decade, with honorable mentions of Antonio McDise and Isaiah Rider.

1970s: Julius Erving
1980s: Dominique Wilkins
1990s: Shawn Kemp
2000s: Vince Carter
2010s: Blake Griffin
2020s: Zion Williamson

In terms of dunk, I take 80's version of Jordan over 90's version of Jordan any day. 90's Jordan is more of fadeaway jump-shot.

Shawn Kemp is 90s and Blake Griffin is 2010s, no doubt.

Nate Robinson, is a freak of nature. He can throw dunks on some of the biggest men in NBA

[PhoenixAscending]

I knew the 2010's would come down to either LeBron or Blake. Blake really had the more memorable dunks, and I personally think it should go to him.

[sammysam]

Not the greatest but most satisfying IMO was DRose throwing it down on Dragić

[djcross]

Not even a honourable mention for Nate Robinson, he still till this day has the most dunk contest wins of all time

[davidjsouth]

Dominique is by far my favorite dunker of all time. The only reason Jordan won 1988 is because it was in Chicago

[typicalgymbrah]

I like how everyone remembers that one lebron dunk as an alley oop from dwade

[atribecalledlen]

I'm sorry but Kemp was the best dunker of the 90's

[thebeast]

I would have picked Connie Hawkins for the 60s even though he didn’t get into the NBA until 1969, since he was a high-flier in the ABA at the time, and would have been in the NBA had he not unfairly been blackballed from the league.

[ktapreswreckdv]

Kemp was most the volatile dunker of the 90's, along with Shaq.

Nice to see my man JRich get some love. Dude was so exciting to watch

[ruizruizpablosantiagogi]

U can tell this guy is a causal when he says that dunk was an alley-oop 7:50
