Zion deserves credit for the full, clean 360 there. You often see 360s that start off quarter turned already, so they're more like 270s.

ETA - upon further review, he started quarter turned too, but it was still a very clean 270.

Yeah that's a waaaaaayyyyy better 360, but still not the best in game one I've seen.

360 between the legs

Another angle

That one is actually VERY impressive. Definitely one of the better in game dunks I've seen.

Like this one from Paul George


Except Zion is essentially eye level with the rim when he dunks.

DeQuan Jones vs UNC

Dahntay Jones vs UVA

These are just two. There have been many, many in game college dunks better than that uncontested dunk you linked in OP.

ETA: Best one I've ever seen in person

Zion is a freak, but there are tons of in game dunks better than that one. That’s not even close to Vince Carter’s Olympic dunk.

Most underrated college dunk, IMO, is Jarvis Basnight.

I'm still partial to, I think it was Chris Johnson @ LSU with the fake no-look pass, then hammering it on the defender.

It's not necessarily the best, but it's by far the best by someone you didn't see coming.

Much Better view of that Jarvis Basnight dunk

Also, just check out that video if you have time. A ton of great in game dunks. It's also 8+ years old now, so there has got to be a lot more dunks which could be included.
