Best dunker debate

[Knight]

The best dunker of all.

While fun to watch great dunkers do not equate to final fours

How about Lee Green? Tom Konchalski wrote that he was like Evil Knievel jumping his motorcycle off a bridge.

One of Tom’s best expressions was He wore the rim like an ankle bracelet.

Once again my nomination for worst player in SJU history. He did nothing well so can’t be on this list.

Lavar Postell was a pretty good dunker!

Can't believe it took this long to mention Lavor.
For me its
1. David Russell
2. Lavor
3. Willie Glass

Hatten had a crazy 360 that was the most impressive dunk I’ve seen in person for a St. John’s player.

Best dunker in STJ history is Harry Boykoff.

Although there is no footage or photos of him dunking, word of Harry's hops is legendary as he threw some serious shit down on cement-shoed mofos, tea-bagging the unsuspected and powering over the weak.

After a particularly ferocious dunk, he'd taunt his opponents by yelling: "NO SOUP FOR YOU!"

His brother Luigi was a great jumper too, especially when he used a mushroom trampoline.

Glass better dunker than Lavor
Loved Postell but would put him distant 3rd
Glass
Russell
Postell
Porter

Actually Shelton Jones probably deserves mention

 

[Jack Williams]

Rysheed deserves a mention for this one. Apologies to Dylan Ennis who was on the wrong end of that yam.

My dad always tells me that this moment was the PEAK of that 2014-15 season for St. John's. We came in on a 4 game win streak, and were looking great early against Nova. Then this dunk happened and it was so hype, Rysheed Jordan screams "this is my city!", St Johns leads by double digits on the road.

Then everything went downhill from there. We get blown out in this game, we lose our first BET game, Obekpa tests positive for the devils lettuce, and we lose to SdSt. And thats it for the Steve Lavin tenure

Couldn’t find but Glass junior year dunked on Ralph Dalton then yelled at Gtown bench on way down the court.
Also he senior year against BC at Alumni Hall he had back to back breakaway dunks where he did the Jordan cradle dunk on one of them.

1) Steve Shurina
2) Heath Orvis
3) Ed Kennedy

Shurina best pre game shooter in school history. Never missed. If boards existed back then would have numerous threads calling for him to get more PT

All great STUFF but the best was Michael Porter. Then David Russell. Then Willie Glass.
That’s the medal stand. Add Lavor Postell for Mount Rushmore.

Only here a year and honestly outside the”in the face” dunk vs Marist don’t remember any other dunks that year.

Hit YouTube for an alley oop from Boo Harvey. Unbelievable. I know it’s a small sample size, but top quality by a one and doner.

 

[redmanwest]

Russell and Glass hands down.

 

[dk423]

Jakarr Sampson deserves a mention
