Ranking OKC Thunder top 50 dunks in franchise history

No. 31: Reggie Jackson on Lopez and Acy
For all the problems Reggie Jackson has off the court, plays like this on the court are the reason he still has a job. He doesn’t utilize his spectacular physical tools very often, but when he does, we get special plays like this one. And like most on this list, this play is particularly impressive when you have to consider what he had to do to pull it off.
First, he had to split through an admittedly bad Nets defense to get the space to load up for it. Then, he had to elevate enough and in the right place to get between two rim protectors, all the while maintaining his balance and focus to flush it through the basket. It’s a wildly impressive dunk from a wildly unimpressive player.
