THD’s 25 Best Dunks of All-Time: #7 Larry Bird Stars in the Human Highlight Film

Our countdown of the ’25 Best Dunks of All-time’ Sponsored by NBA.com/Dunk continues.

Hopefully, everyone who’s been following our countdown this summer has enjoyed each and every dunk. But I completely understand if you enjoy the ones featuring the game’s all-time great players even more. If that happens to be the case, you are going to love lucky number seven.

First of all, watching Larry Bird getting dunked on is a little surprising in itself. However, considering the dunker is Dominique Wilkins, makes it a little less surprising. Wilkins is one of the most athletic players and best dunkers in league history. In the video below, Wilkins receives the long outlet pass, before he races to the hoop for the dunk. Bird tries valiantly to stop the attempt, but he ends up with nothing but a temporarily bruised ego and a personal foul.

Joshua Sexton is a lifelong basketball fanatic, who watches as many games as possible. In addition, He has played and coached the game at the high school level. He has recently started writing about the game of basketball.
