Miami Heat: The Third And Fourth Placed Dunks Of The Year

The moment at hand today though, or moments, would be the best dunk of the season. With four in mind, which is the absolute best?

Let’s see the contestants. As it will be said a few times, it must be said beforehand and overall.

These are four amazing dunks. Each guy had an absolute banger of a highlight to put on their reels.

Let’s get into it though. Just who had the Miami Heat’s best dunk of the season?

Well, these are four absolutely amazing dunks. You have to be honest there.

To keep things organized. the following will be ranked in explanation, from four to one.

4. Max vs. Bulls

So, again, they are all nice dunks. To have a dunk be a contestant when you have other contestants that are dunking on people, that already shows how special the play was in itself.

That’s just it though, as Max Strus didn’t dunk on anybody, as the other three did.

It was a really nice play and again, deserving of the “best dunk” nominee honor, but the aesthetic, difficulty, and ferocity just rise to another level when the aerial assault takes place on another player.

3. Bam vs. Cavaliers

Again, a very nice dunk here and especially off the lob from a guy that has improved a ton in that specific area, Tyler Herro. The power, the pass, the aerial surprise, and the aftermath all make this one vicious slam from Bam Adebayo.

Ed Davis’ reaction, the Cavalier dunked on in the play, was golden. This was the third-ranked dunk for a reason though and that’ll become clear as we move to the second-best slam.
