Mark Jackson

So good, they even put it in the game. Chambers could pull off that dunk in game if he was just inside the 3-point line.

most of the guys you are all mentioning were pretty good players ironically.

man,,,getting dunked on is commonplace. most of the time players ALLOW other players to dunk or are half-@ssed about aggressively defending it.

better thread would be players who stop dunkers cold

To be clear, I'm not talking about just anybody who's been dunked on. These are the guys who...when someone says their name...the first thing people think of is them getting dunked on.

I'm talking about:

Mozgov
Shawn Bradley
Chris Gatling
Brandon Knight
Fredric Weis (the GOAT of this category)

Who else am I missing?

I remember mozgod for going off on the warriors in the finals.
Bradley for getting dunked on
Gatling as a good playuer
Knight as a good player that could have been great if not for confidence issues
Weis.... sorry bro I tried.

Wiggins dunked on him twice in a game if I remember.

A lot of these guys aren’t “best” remembered for getting dunked on.

Indeed, after you get past Frederic Weis, the list grows thin quickly.

This one SHOULD be that way, but its incredibly underrated -- IMO one of the best in game dunks of all time, over Boston Nachbar, who isn't going to be remembered for much else:
