Air Jordan excelled in all aspects of scoring and always had jaw-dropping dunks that are still talked about today. Jordan won back-to-back NBA Slam Dunk Contest titles that included an epic duel with great dunker, Dominique Wilkins in 1988. Jordan scored a perfect 50 dunk from the free-throw line for his third dunk to win the contest.

He posterized top shot blockers and defenders with insane in-game dunks that had them think twice about trying to block his shots. His most notable dunk for me was the one where he exploded over hall of fame center Patrick Ewing of the New York Knicks.
