Top 10 NBA Dunk Contest Debuts

By

Cedric Ceballos, 1992
How do you top Dee Brown’s no-look? Put on a blindfold, obviously. One of the father’s of theatricality in the dunk contest took off from half-court with a blindfold. Points are taken away, just like with Brown, for pulling out the risky dunk once he’d already had the title won, but it’s still impressive.

    Vince has to be #1. He brought the dunk contest back, making him the most anticipated dunker in the contest’s history.

    Damn wonder how many times Jerome Williams has been courtside for these dunk contest, dude is in like every other video

  • Gary Soms

    The dunk contest is rigged to be won by the fan favorite not the best dunker. Last year Javelle McGee did a dunk you’ll probably never see again on a dunk contest and still didnt win when he dunked two balls. Blake jumped over the front of a car and it was a big deal. My boy Chris “Skywalker” Lowery jumped over the middle of a car and he’s only 6’2″ so Blake’s dunk was a yawner to me. Also what’s up with all of these tall players being in the dunk contest, they should be able to dunk at 6’8″ and taller.

    For every NBA dunk contest I’ve seen, I can remember at least two of the winner’s dunks. All except Ceballos. Besides the blindfold dunk, what else did he do?

    I would’ve liked to see Harold Miner on here, or Steve Francis.

    man, vince is def number one, he didnt just bring it back but he killed it, he did stuff we never seen. Wilkins did some dunks that dont look as hard but has an extremely high level of difficulty.

    JRichn had some insanely hard dunks too

  • Chaos

    Jerome kersey was just angry

    didn’t dee brown do the dunk 2 balls?

  • dapro

    Blake’s “Kia” dunk is the most hyped dunk I’ve ever seen! Everything leading up until the dunk was classic, the dunk itself was wack!

  • heckler

    dunk contest has gotten weak.
    Shawn Kemp NEVER won a dunk contest. That is pure bullshit in itself.

    Andre Iguodala did the GREATEST dunk in contest history (a man would DIE if he attempted the dunk and didnt complete it. literally suffer a BROKEN NECK. to miss is to die!).
    and Iggy lost to Nate Robinson in his bullshit bogus year.

    Is it mandatory to have dunk contest controversy now?

    Blake Griffin clear won that contest last year. He did amazing dunks. Dunks that hadn’t been done before. He had the theatrics to go along with it. He clearly studied and practiced for the contest. Yet Javale McGee came out and missed his dunks several times (especially that two rim two ball dunk and the 3 balls dunk) yet people are claiming he should have won.
    And those same people are prolly the ones who claim Nate Robinson shouldn’t have won it because he had so many dunk attempts himself and that Iggy got robbed.

    Add that to the “Dominique really beat MJ but MJ was at home so it was rigged” 1988 dunk contest, and the sh!t gets tiring.
