Vince Carter explains the randomness of his "Dunk of Death" at 2000 Olympics

Posted May 26, 2023
Vince Carter is one of the best dunkers the NBA has ever seen. But Vinsanity’s most popular dunk did not take place on an NBA basketball court. It happened during the 2000 Summer Olympics. And while the “Dunk of Death” is arguably the greatest in-game dunk in basketball history, according to Carter, it wasn’t his intention to dunk over a 7-2 center. (Basketball Network)
