Jerry Sloan maintains a close relationships with Jazz management, making his return to the franchise this summer an easy transition even without an official position as consultant to this point. Read More.
There's only room for 10 names on the poll so add others in the thread if you want.
(Don't give me grief about including Bargs. I didn't vote for him but I thought I should include him. He has had some pretty awesome dunks over the years.)
I remember Pops Mensa Bonsu having some awesome dunks, mostly because he was undersized yet still finished over multiple defenders with a lot of force.
Marion's dunk over Granger I still remember to this day

Good call on Pops.
Jeremy Lin, Jerryd Bayless, Bismack Biyombo, I believe.

Even Jack was disappointed when Demar did a lame dunk on a breakaway a few weeks back. Ross the same game threw down a vicious tomahawk dunk on a fastbreak and Jack said "Are you watching Demar?" lol.
Its funny how Pops literally only played like 30 games for us yet there's a long ass line of highlights for him. He might be a one-hit wonder of a player but it is telling how this franchise constantly rewards chumps with long-term contracts
That part where he blushes to the standing ovation always makes me smile---we had guys like Bosh, Bargnani, Jose, etc. in that game but the crowd recognized just how hard Pops busted his ass. If only he were an inch or 3 taller he'd probably still have a job. Very few undersized bigs who aren't skilled at all yet play so damn hard actually make it (ie. Hayes).

His in game dunk over the 7 footer is one of my favourite in game dunks.
You know honestly, the poll should have been "the next best three dunkers" because I doubt anyone disagrees with your point.
DD... you know, I swear he jumps too late or something. He always seems to be too far under the basket when he actually throws it down, like every single dunk. It makes every one of his dunks look slightly awkward.
