Top 20 Highest Verticals in NBA History

17. Vince Carter – 43″

As already mentioned previously, Vince Carter put on one of the best slam dunk contest performances of all-time back in 2000. This performance included a 360° windmill, a between the legs bounce dunk, and another dunk in which Carter put his elbow through the rim.

Carter was nicknamed “Air Canada” and “Half-Man Half-Amazing” for his insane hops and penchant for highlight dunks.
