Top 10 Thunder Dunks from Before the All-Star Break

With a few days remaining in the All-Star break, I put together a quick list of the Thunder’s 10 best dunks from the first 59 games of the season. Enjoy.

…

10. Terrance Ferguson takes off in Cleveland

Nothing better than the rookie sealing a blowout win by nearly jumping over the backboard. Kid has bounce.

…

9. Russell Westbrook puts MKG on a high-speed poster

This happened really fast and poor Michael Kidd-Gilchrist didn’t have the time needed to defend himself.

…

8. Josh Huestis gets the two-hander on Joel Embiid

I love Jojo but I’m here for him getting dunked on. Good on you, Josh.

…

7. Paul George on Zaza Pachulia in Oakland

This is great for a number of reasons, most notably the fact that Zaza Pachulia is the worst. When you consider that this was an emphatic moment in a big win against Golden State, the dunk is even better.

…

6. Ferg’s fast break windmill in Los Angeles

Putting the finishing touches on a career-high 24 points against the Lakers in style. Ferg probably should have been invited to the dunk contest.

…

5. Jerami Grant’s insane put-back against Utah

This one lands at number five based on the extension alone.

…

4. Westbrook drops a triple-OT hammer in Philly

This dunk is insane because it came in triple-overtime of a game Russ played 52 minutes in. He was about 48 minutes in at this point (a full game) and still had the juice to uncork this beauty over Dario Saric.

…

3. Steven Adams goes way up and over the Raptors

A violent, powerful jam made better by the celebration at the end.

…

2. Paul George posterizes Derrick Favors

I was at this game and the guy sitting next to me let out a high-pitched, primal scream in the immediate aftermath of this dunk. It could have also been me, I don’t know. Was loud in there.

…

1. Russell Westbrook punishes Thon Maker

I firmly believe Thon Maker should have retired after this. Perhaps the most impressive Westbrook dunk of all time and easily the best we’ve seen so far this season.
