Funny thing pre-mission I could grab the rim but not really dunk

but post-mission my vertical had noticeably increased (height the same) and I could dunk pretty easily. Kind of weird being that I barely played any basketball on the mission. I guess walking all day and eating beans and rice can increase your vertical.

It's disappointing our basketball isn't better than it is with that stat.

1 in 200 seems really, really low.. That's like 3 from my HS graduating class

I would say 3-4 people could dunk at will in my graduating class

There were probably 10 guys that could dunk in our class of 300.

You mean like a through-the-legs 360 or just a regular dunk? Either way the answer is yes

I could about one out of every 5 times when I was a junior in high school

I did once, on my mission. Lost a bunch of weight in a hilly bike area.

As a senior in high school, at just under 5'7" I finally could touch the rim...a

One of my life goals. Still holding onto a small amount of hope it will happen.

I could hit the rim with the bottom edge of my palm. Never got a dunk to go in though.

I could touch the net. But i'm not 6'2" to 6'6" like more than half on CB are.

I could dunk a volleyball in college. Just couldn't palm a full size ball

I could grab the rim, but that was it. I could probably grab net now.

I dunked one time when I was 17, and my friend stood under the basket and lobbed

maxpowers

I could until age 40. Blood blisters on my for arm were my glory. I keep thinking if I can lose some weight I can again
