His slams were by far the most amazing I have ever seen in my life. Jumping behind the foul line, he dunked after crossing the ball under his leg. In another, he dunked windmill by taking off 2 feet before the faul line. Amazing, stunning...

It might be amazing in Turkey because you don't usually see athletes like that. In the states, they're a dime a dozen. Maybe White should try out for the AND1 team.

Athleticism is over-rated.

James White was the dunking sensation in HS, College too in the States, so he's not your average dunker.

Jeez, Richard Chaney is far from spectacular in the dunk contest. James White Owned the competition!

The guy is one of the world's premier dunkers. He dominated the college competition and would have been golden in the NBA dunk contest. I'm thoroughly impressed. I wonder what his vertical is....may not be up to the level of Michael Wilson, but he may have the wingspan to make up for it.

I swear to God that the rim looks too low. Either this guy is a giant or they lowered the hoop. Either way, it never looked like he "rose" up all that high in these dunks. Maybe he made it look easy, but it sure didn't look like we were witnessing something special.

7 feet 4 High jumper and 27 feet long jump with minimal track training. Has Olympic calibre potential as said by his Bearcats coach. 1 of the Elite athlete and jumpers this side of planet earth. Michael Wilson aint got nothing on James White.

I think your in disbelief that an actual human being is capable of flying in the air so effortlessly, James White is just a freak of nature, accept it.

Don't be ridiculous the rim height is the same with the NBA.

And someone said there are dozens of athletes like James White, well NO! James White might be the best dunker ever! But he's right about one thing: Athleticism is overrated. White wasn't even a starter in the Turkish league.
