    In a recent SI Interview with Dwight Howard, he was asked to name the top 3 white dunkers. His top 3 in order were Joe Alexander, Birdman, and JJ Redick . Dwight also mentioned putting together an all-white player dunk contest...

    Of course Budinger gets no love so where does he stand? I think he is definetely top 3 and maybe the best(although my opinion may be biased). I could see Budinger winning an all-white dunk contest easily. Doesn't seem like the NBA is aware of Bud's athleticism yet.

    Who would you say are the best white dunkers in the NBA or even of all-time(Brent Barry :eek: )?

    Chase is definitely a better dunker than JJ Redick.

    We are talking about the same JJ Redick that airballed a layup during the game right?

    Kurt Rambis rocked the hoop in his time.

    bobby jones was a better dunker than rambis, and tom chambers was better than all white dunkers as far as the 80s are concerned.

    Budinger and Joe Alexander are already in the top 5 All Time White Dunkers list. Rounding it out are Tom Chambers, Brent Barry, Birdman.

    Given more time, Josh McRoberts can contend.

    Boki Nachbar and Linas Kleiza can throw down some dunks. Bob Sura was okay his first couple years but then got bland and banged up after that.
