    I'm sure every player can dunk during practice but maybe not in game

    Rubio - can definitely dunk. I have seen him dunk a bunch of times.

    Lucas - I think he can probably dunk. I've seen him get up above the rim several times.

    Steve Nash - I'm not sure about now, but definitely did in the past.

    Steve Blake - I'm pretty sure I've seen him dunk before, and also miss a dunk too.

    DJ Augustin - I have no idea.

    There is no way a 6'9" guy in the NBA can't dunk...in practice that is, even Luis Scola.

    Not sure about Nash, he has never dunked in a game 'cuz he's a smart, there's a reason why he's still playing at 38 years old. Every dunk takes a toll on your knees. Blake Griffin should think about a simple lay up on the fast break every now and then if he wants a long career.

    Everyone in the NBA can dunk. You can't play in the league with at least that level of athleticism. In fact, the only player in history who couldn't dunk is probably Muggsy Bogues. Earl Boykins has been rumored to be able to.

    Elite athletes at the pinnacle of their sport? Stop fooling yourself; everyone in the NBA including the D-League can dunk. Furthermore, Brian Scalabrine is better at basketball than all of us.
