Nope

Someone once commented on a Ralph Samson dunk in the NBA... dude didn't get any mention because he was 7'4. But the video I saw, if you watch it, he had the ball possibly above the top of the backboard as he went down the lane. It just didn't look as good as a Jordan dunk, because he was almost a foot taller.

Shaq in a dunk contest is like watching someone on an 8 ft rim. He's so big it's easy for him, and he really doesn't have the hops (in proportion to his body) that a smaller guy does.

My vote would be Vernell Singleton. Same hops as Tyrus, but shorter.

I don't know, so many choices here. But the most brutal dunks has to be the one by Jabari Smith where he caught the ball at the free throw line and faked behind the back then went airborne and slammed it home. I think it was against Arizona.

Shaq goes first, he breaks the goal, he wins. Event over.

Yeah. The Astronaut. Some great leapers came through here over the years and I’ve been watching them for 40 years- but Scales is the best.

Brutal? How is it more brutal than breaking multiple backboards. That is brutal. And we all know who did that. Big Lives Matter.

Darrel Mitchell had some of the best hops ever for any LSU basketball player and when he did dunk it was awesome. He's also short which makes his dunks even more impressive but I would go with Tyrus and then Hornsby. At the fan day one year, Hornsby was "so close" to pulling off some crazy azz dunks but barely missed 3 straight times.

Shaq if he went first, because he’d destroy the goal and no one else would have any attempts

Four pages and no Collis Temple. I saw him do dunks that would cause arena to go crazy.
