Question - Dunks

[AZOrange]

After the game on Saturday, JB basically said he is not that impressed by guys that can dunk (which I understand). However, there has always been a bit of lore about our program that JB was once so impressed by a dunk in practice that he cancelled the rest of the practice. Did that ever really happen? Who was the dunker? Who was the dunked? I would guess Dave Johnson as Dunker and Leron as dunked.

It was Onuaku and practice was cancelled cuz he disintegrated the backboard...

It was mentioned in a story I read a few months ago. The dunker was not someone who you would have expected. Not DJ, not AO.

So it's either gotta be a little guard or some unathletic guy

Stevie Thompson he basically took off from the foul line during a scrimmage...it was in the half court

I'm pretty sure he stated it was Dave Johnson who hit a reverse dunk after taking off from the foul line during a practice. JB said after that they just called it a day.

I'm remembering it being Tony Scott.

Speaking of dunks, I swear Dion is going to break his arm one of these times.

It was Bernie. He teabagged JB in a spirited game of one on one.

I like the story of GMAC dunking over Forth and Melo getting in Forth's face because of it
