Vince Carter

Vince Carter has thrown down many dunks, maybe thousands of in-game dunks. Even though Carter only played two seasons with the Magic, he was still able to make a mark in Magic dunk history.

One of his best dunks came from a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers in the regular season. With 5:35 seconds to go in the fourth quarter and the Magic down 82-84, Jameer Nelson threw a pass to Carter, leading to Carter throwing down a hard two-handed slam on two Cavaliers players. The jam sent fans out of their seats at the Amway Arena. Vince Carter went on to get 11 points, one rebound, and three assists in a 101-95 Magic victory.

Carter got the crowd going again later in the year when, at 33 years old, he casually threw down a 360 in transition.

He clearly still had it in his time in Orlando.

In another instance, Carter threw down a poster dunk on Josh Smith in Game Two of the of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Vince Carter dropped 20 points in the second half giving him 24 points total in a huge Magic victory sending them 2-0 in the series.

Carter never did take part in the Dunk contest for Orlando, but he really could have put on a nice show on with his dunking abilities.

And clearly, Carter is still dunking for the Memphis Grizzlies.
