Best NBA Dunks 2025-26 Season: The Most Insane Highlights So Far
The 2025-26 NBA season has produced some of the most jaw-dropping dunks in recent memory. From posterizers that ended careers to alley-oops that defied physics, here are the best dunks of the season so far.
10. Ja Morant's windmill in traffic
Morant drove baseline against three defenders, elevated over all of them, and threw down a windmill dunk that had the Memphis crowd losing their minds. The degree of difficulty was absurd — he was surrounded by bodies and still found a way to finish with style. Classic Ja.
9. Anthony Edwards poster on Gobert
Edwards drove right at Rudy Gobert — the best shot-blocker in the league — and dunked on him so hard that Gobert fell to the floor. The Timberwolves bench cleared. Edwards stood over Gobert and stared. It was the most disrespectful dunk of the season, and Edwards didn't care one bit.
8. Wembanyama's chase-down block to fast-break dunk
Wemby blocked a layup attempt from behind, grabbed the ball, sprinted the full length of the court, and threw down a one-handed dunk on the other end. The entire sequence took 4 seconds. A 7-foot-4 player should not be able to move like that.
7. Zion Williamson's 360 dunk
Zion caught the ball at the free-throw line, took one dribble, and threw down a 360 dunk that shook the entire arena. At 284 pounds, Zion should not be able to do a 360 dunk. But he did, and it was beautiful.
6. Cooper Flagg's poster on his first NBA game
Flagg's first NBA dunk was a poster. He drove baseline, elevated over a veteran center, and threw it down with authority. The Lakers bench went crazy. LeBron was the first one off the bench, jumping up and down like a fan. It was the moment everyone knew Flagg was going to be special.
5. Giannis Antetokounmpo's dunk from the dotted line
Giannis took off from just inside the free-throw line and dunked it with two hands. The distance he covered was inhuman. His stride length, his vertical leap, and his hang time combined to create a dunk that looked like it was from a video game. The Greek Freak at his finest.
The dunk of the year (so far)
Anthony Edwards' poster on Gobert takes the top spot. The combination of the victim (the best shot-blocker in the league), the aggression (Edwards went right at him), and the aftermath (the stare-down) made it the most memorable dunk of the season. Edwards is the best in-game dunker since prime LeBron.
