5 Dunks Zach LaVine Should do in 2016 Dunk Contest

1. Windmill Through the Legs off an Assist from Teammate 

Paying homage to one of the most electric dunkers the game has seen in Vince Carter, it would be interesting to see if LaVine recreates this historic jam. With the All-Star game hosted in Toronto, LaVine could once again initially rock his usual Timberwolves jersey and when he is primed to dunk-tear it off, unveiling a retro Vince Carter Raptors uniform.

These tributes to past players usually don’t fail for the players performing the dunks. Maybe it gives an extra incentive to finish the dunk and not look foolish on the court, but LaVine’s ability and power suggests he can finish a memorable jam.

Most of his dunks last year were on the windmill-between-the-legs variety. With scores of 50, 45 and 50, respectively, LaVine overwhelmed the competition en route to a memorable debut.

This dunk sets up perfectly for a thrilling clincher in Toronto, especially if Andrew Wiggins is bouncing him the ball for the finish. If LaVine makes it to the final two, which he’s likely to as the favorite for the event, it would be fitting that he honors one of the best dunkers of his generation in Vince Carter.
