nic, I'm pretty bad at stats but it looks like Nae'Quan is dunking at a rate that is unprecedented in Cat basketball history.

would not have guessed Rod would be so high on that list! I remember him as an ice-in-his-veins 3 pt sharpshooter.

Makol should honestly be at 26 dunks but he doinked like 8 or 9 dunks off the rim so he officially is the leader there too. Fred McCoy is 2nd with 5 doink dunks.

N’Guessan has two donks this year, I believe

Rod did so many good things on the court. I always appreciated his rebounding and defense!

the crowd noise builds like a wave. there’s some who see it coming and begin to yell before the actual dunk/alley-oop, pretty cool

I don't know who you remove, but Nowell has to be top 5.

I think you can make an argument for everyone but Pullen. At least for a single season.

I'm taking Wade off that list for 'Quis.

Picturing an unbridled Tang-led Dean is a cream dream of epic proportions.

Dean swishing threes and midrange jumpers would open up the rim/lane for even more alley-oop thunderdunks and slashing reverse layups.

IMO, the best part of this play was the shot under the basket of Desi. I can't seem to find it floating on the interwebs now, but it was great during the TV replay.

I like Quis running to the other end of the court, giving an adrenaline yell, and shouting "I'M A FUCKIN' BEAST!"

If you could bottle the feeling he must've had in that moment you could make a lot of money.

Dean would be right there dunking with the rest of our dudes. Tbh, Dean would be an excellent mentor for Tomlin. More similar skill and talent than one might realize.
