Even though there is no one in front of him, he would choose to take a jumpshot instead of layup or dunk I guess

In the ESPN Outsides The Lines segment on Neal, that is running right now by the way, they showed several college clips of Neal. In one clip, they showed him going to the hole for a dunk, in traffic.

Great piece on Neal. I still say he's Eddie Murphy's twin.

I'm sure he can, but like Tony, his "higher-%age" shot is a lay-up.
If Neal ever does dunk in a game, I wouldn't be surprised to see the crowd go crazy like they did for Tony's completely avg, breakaway dunk.

Haven't seen Nash dunk. AI did and pretty sure Kidd as well. Heck, even Muggsy Bouges dunked before.

Did he? Haven't seen that. BTW, were you asking for active players who can't dunk or can we name players from the past like Stockton/Hornecek? I'm sure there are one or two white PG's before who played in the nba that can't dunk.

He can't dunk now and he is in the NBA. So your theory is wrong. I am sure there are more NBA players besides him that can't dunk either.
Hell, Chris Webber admitted that he can't even grab the rim now due to his knees.
that charity event was held while he was an nba player.. but if we're gonna talk about old players thats fine.. but chris webber's not in the nba any more.. and yea he can't dunk because of the bad knees.. im pretty sure charles barkley can't dunk now neither.. but what makes you think nash can't dunk now? he's like one of the most athletic players out there

lol im just sayin.. if i at 5'11 could dunk (not consistently tho) at age 17.. im pretty positive these nba players can dunk.. they're hell of a lot more stronger than i was

I guarantee you that there are players in the NBA that can't dunk.
I'm starting to think jimo is right, name some.

I think you have a winner with Luke Ridnour. I haven't found anything with him dunking in it.

This is the video I saw

turns out to be a massive fail for whoever put up the video. The last dunk was shown to be Earl Boykins but it's actually TJ Ford.
Maybe he can't

I remember watching a youtube video way back when Earl was with the nuggets. During warmups he went up to dunk but he missed yet he was pretty close. So I'm pretty sure he could dunk. As for steve nash I'm sure he could dunk. He dunked in this video with ease. Even though it was when he was in college I'm sure he could dunk still.

I'm pretty sure I remember Gary Neal dunking. It was either very early in the season or in the preseason. I remember because I was shocked that he did it, as I had only seen him taking jumpshots.

I've heard that mentioned (where he almost dunked in warmups) but this isn't horseshoes here. I have yet to see any video or articles that indicate Boykins could dunk it, even looking through his highlight reels. If there was substantial evidence of this guy dunking at 5'5", it would probably be pretty easy to find.

I really hate this question. The last time I've seen this question raised was when roger mason was doing great for us. Anyway, I think if the ring starts puking and bend over he would be able to dunk it. Multiple times. Eyes closed in between legs.....Ok, I kid, I kid.

I'm Gary's brother in law, and Yes he can dunk. I asked him this past weekend about his chance to dunk in the rookie all star game and he said he doesn't feel comfortable doing it.
