Who is the best dunker in the NBA? The quick answer right now is Blake Griffin. The star rookie for the Los Angeles Clippers has thrown down a number of very impressive dunks so far this season. Oh, and he just won the 2011 NBA Slam Dunk Contest. However, there is another player who might be an even better dunker: DeMar DeRozan of the Toronto Raptors.
DeMar DeRozan has authored a number of impressive dunks … but since he plays north of the border, we often don’t see those dunks on the highlight reels. In the 2011 NBA Slam Dunk contest, DeMar DeRozan participated and had a couple great dunks. In fact, he was a point away from knocking out Blake Griffin in the first round.
Looking back at the slam dunk contest, you can make a good case that DeMar DeRozan had better dunks than Blake Griffin. Want more proof? Here is a DeMar DeRozan video of him easily completing a dunk Blake Griffin couldn’t finish in the slam dunk contest!
