There's already a post like this in the Sreet Ball forum.
But just for the record, I can't. I once barely, BARELY nipped the bottom of the rim at basketball practice earlier this year. Haha, I'm about 5'6 and I'm white, but I'm still growing and I've got ups for a white guy.  |

I'm not going to lie, I'm 6-1 and I cant dunk. But I sure can ball pretty damn good.

I can get 3/4 up the net. I'm a decent 1 on 1 defender

I surprised myself this year. Last year, I was barely able to dunk, then I sprained my ankle in the summer, and then again at the beginning of the season, so I layed off trying to dunk for a while. But the weather's warmer and the snow melted, so I started playing again.
Anyways, to my surprise, I've gotten pretty far above the rim. I can dunk from a stand still (or at least keeping my pivot foot), I hit some big two-handers, and a reverse on a full 10 ft goal.
So you know, I'm a 6'4" white guy and I go off of two feet, and dunk with two hands because I can't palm a ball very well.

I figure that since this thread is littered with people talking about how they are 3/8ths of the way up the mesh, or once their finger grazed the bottom of the rim, I might as well make a list of who can actually dunk. So far it's:
Stojokovic16
hOnDo
HBM (when he was younger)
SkywalkerAC
Charlie Boy
Jemel Irief
RichTheAxe
digital Jello
Beez
Sangha
CaponeNNoreaga
Chapi
Four_Season_Hustler (is tall)
knicksbiggestfan
PistolBaller (needs to bulk up a bit)
koos
Dabears (I rule. Well, not really)
