About This Quiz
It's hard to imagine that there was a time when the dunk wasn't the most popular shot in basketball or that it's slowly being overtaken again by the three-point shot. However, prior to the first Slam Dunk Contest in 1984, dunking was a skill usually reserved for a few select players. With the Slam Dunk Contest and the rise of the Michael Jordan era, the game of basketball changed drastically in the late '80s and '90s.Â
Since the introduction of the Slam Dunk Contest, there have been 26 winners who have impressed fans with their dazzling ability to lift their bodies as they float through the air performing magical maneuvers before they slam the ball into the hoop.
