Every NBA team’s most prolific dunker from the 2021-22 season
By Luke Anton
29. Detroit Pistons (257 total dunks) – Hamidou Diallo: 51 dunks
The Pistons were only six dunks ahead of the Spurs for the fewest in the league, and Hamidou Diallo was the only guard in the NBA to lead his team in dunks this season. (Although there is one additional player on this list that you could argue is a guard.) The Pistons had so few dunkers this season that Marvin Bagley’s 34 dunks finished second on the team while Bagley only played 18 games for Detroit after being acquired at the Feb. 10 trade deadline.
It seems like people forget that Hami Diallo won the 2019 Slam Dunk Contest in his rookie season with the Thunder, the first-ever OKC player to win. In that Slam Dunk Contest, he dunked over Shaq and Quavo — although not on the same dunk.
