White Flight: The Best White Dunkers of All Time

Ever since Woody Harrelson laced 'em up in White Men Can't Jump, Caucasian kids have had dreams of giving their black friends facials. Pause. And when white ballers do reach new heights by throwing down above-average dunks, shit can get crazy. The latest example: Duke

Complex says: With over half a million views, some have claimed this as the "best white dunk" of all time...uh, negative. It's notable mostly because Waddell's complete and utter lack of swag makes his unintentional post-slam flip so comical. If he had actually meant to pull off that acrobatic move and stuck the landing...well, then we'd be talking GOAT for real.

Complex says: Andersen made it to both the 2004 and 2005 NBA Slam Dunk Contests, though his performances were kind of embarrassing. Still, he's known to throw down on the reg, and he also gets high (in the past) off the court, too. Yup, we fux with Birdman—no Weezy.

Complex says: There's no doubt the kid has hops but this and Asher playing in the background makes us feel like we need to go stand in the sun for a while—SPF 0, fam.

Complex says: As a senior in high school, Lee won the McDonald's All-American Slam Dunk Contest in 2001. Before being traded to Golden State this offseason, Knicks fans will tell you that Lee was one of the only reasons to watch a game at the Garden in recent years. He actually dunks with a little confidence, which is nice. Most white dudes throw down dunks like they have a train to catch afterwards.

Complex says: Way before John Wall, Sexy Rexy was throwing down ill dunks for Kentucky. Call him the O.G. White Chocolate, 'cause he had the skill and the swag to make him a hood favorite.

Complex says: We love shitting on Big Baby just as much as anyone else, so this sonning was good enough to earn the Aussie a spot on the list.

Complex says: Dude didn't do much at Eastern Dub, but he's been a YouTube dunking legend for years now. If you're only gonna have one real skill, there's worse ones to have than the ability to ether the rim like this.

Complex says: We looked for some highlights of Sura from back when he was sonning fools at Florida State, but this is all we could find. We always loved homie's game. Again: It's one thing to dunk, it's another thing altogether to dunk with AUTHORITY. Bobby put it down. Sidebar: Why is it that every YouTube compilation of white dunkers has the most wild suspect music as a soundtrack?

Complex says: For white people, this is the sports equivalent of the movie Falling Down. "If everyone will just stay out of my way, nobody will get hurt!"

Complex says: In 1996, Brent Barry became the first and only white player to win the NBA Slam Dunk Contest—without taking off his warm-up. How G is that??? Best white dunker of all time? Fuck yeah, bro!!!
