Vince Carter's best dunks, ranked from 2000 NBA Dunk Contest to Olympics 'Dunk of Death'

Posted Feb 15, 2025
1. Vince Carter "Elbow Dunk" in the 2000 NBA Dunk Contest. One of Carter's best and most famous dunks came from the 2000 NBA Dunk Contest when he dunked the basketball using his entire arm to the point where he hung off the rim from his elbow. That dunk had the crowd so awestruck that no one, not even the players, knew how to react. (Sporting News)
