Harden. He's quietly one of my favorite dunkers in the league. He plays like an old man but he can throw it down with the best of them. Harden throws it down as hard as LeBron when he feels like it and he has flair, too.

Feel like I posted in this a month ago, but since the guy is in the first gif, Marvin Williams is a pretty underrated dunker. Oh, I remember now. It was the best dunker on each team thread.
Ricky Davis was nasty back in the day. Robert Pack.
Go YouTube the highlights yourself you lazy assholes.

Pack was fun to watch. He came up huge in the 94' Playoffs when they upset Seattle and took Utah to 7.
The dunk over Kemp was nice.

That dunk from the Olympics in slow mo looks nice.
I've always felt Wade doesn't get the credit he deserves as far as dunking. He has some great dunks on big men.
Ricky Davis as well for me.
Antonio McDyess was a beast back in the day too.

Wade? Maybe not now, but everyone knows he's one of the best in game dunkers of all time.
On a side note, I've never been impressed by a single Clyde dunk, as much as I want to. What are people's opinion about him? Like I wouldn't even put him in my top 50.
Dyess was a monster, yes. Has anyone thrown down tomahawks with such unrelenting ferocity since or before?

Also, another name, Latrell Sprewell. I always loved his tomahawks. Just an angry man, and straight up angry dunker.

Marvin Williams had about 3 career dunks til he joined the jazz.
He actually used to refuse to dunk.

You are out of your mind, or simply haven't seen much Drexler.
An all time great dunker.

I tried. Does zero for me and I've seen all his relevant dunks and most of the more obscure ones. His windmills are particularly pedestrian.

The most underrated dunker of all-time, to me, is probably Orlando Woolridge. Imho, a top 10 dunker ever and he's left from most lists. He played long ago and in a time where people weren't as crazy about show-off and so on, plus a plenty of his best dunks are probably not even on tape.

OK, I can see your problem.
Clyde didn't do many complicated, fancy dunks.....
HOWEVER
He dunked ALOT. And they usaully involved amazing hang time, ability to palm the ball, and power.
A 6'6 Durant-type dunker, which makes it more impressive. Amazing extension, and a great ability to collect the rebound or steal, then go coast to coast for powerful one handed dunks.
Served up many facials also, his 2 best probably being on Cartwright and Robinson.
With drexler it wasn't so much of the dunks themselves but *how* he got to the dunks.
It was his swooping glide/ jumping ability toward the rim that was awe inspiring. Hence his nickname "the glide"

My All Time underrated dunkers: Ron Harper and Clyde Drexler
Harp had a serious knee injury shortly after he was traded to the Clippers during the 89-90 season, but before that, dude was a beast. Dumbest thing Cleveland ever did was trading him to the Clips for the rights to Danny Ferry. But it worked out for my Bulls!
Clyde, for some reason, never got props for his dunking ability, which was right up there with MJ and Nique back in the day.
Some Old School Harper highlights:

Anyone remember Laphonso Ellis? He used to get a lot of nice dunks in traffic and over people. Not as flashy, but nice when it came to jamming on top of people.

Kevin Durant last year was the best in game dunker in the league.
Not as much this year, still underrated tho
