1. Terry Reason 360*
2. Deonte Burton middle of the lane.
Don’t recall who they played in each instance and I was at both games!
Deonte was the game that MU honored Butch Lee.

Amal on the receiving end of a half court alley-oop on the break from Tony Miller was ridiculous. Circa 1994/1995.

Thanks for checking in, Amal, and for reminding us of your ridiculous dunk!

Amal had a couple of nasty dunks on me at the rec one time I got stuck “guarding” him. I hit a couple of 3s on him though!

The "and 1" against Kentucky is Wade's most memorable dunk but his dunk against East Carolina was his best in a Marquette uniform.

Henry threw tons of great alley oops to Wade, too.  My favorite was the reverse jam at DePaul.

DJ had several incredible jams this past season. Not sure where they rank, but a couple had national announcers screaming praise.

Have never seen the East Carolina dunk again after seeing in person. Does MUOverload have access to it? Was there no TV that game?

I'm probably in the minority but I don't think Wade's dunk vs. UK was great. The moment was awesome, but remove the situation and I wouldn't put it in the top 20.

was that an alley-oop?  i remember a wade dunk on an alley-opp against a forgettable team, and i had pretty good seats right behind the wall for the admirals game so i was at player level.  the ball went up, no one could really see wade as he had a wall in front of him, and he just rose up above everyone else out of what seemed like nowhere.  it's one of those plays when you realize the unbelievable athleticism, coordination, timing, speed, power, etc.

You can’t remove the moment. Why would you?

My memory has it as a MJ dunk contest leaner style. There were lots of other incredible alley oops though. Memories are weird though, not sure if I have it right.

Ron Curry at the BC against Penny Hardaway and Memphis.  Circa 1993 I believe.   End of the game and got fouled. He asked Logterman if ball went down.  It was really nasty.
