  • Dwyane Wade was an exceptional dunker
  • The former Miami Heat star boasted stellar athleticism
  • Wade’s dunking during his playing time was electric to watch

Dwyane Wade was regarded as one of the greatest players of his generation for a reason, and this amazing stat line just proves the statement.

In a recent Twitter post doing the rounds, the former Miami Heat star has the most dunks of all time for a player 6’4″ or under, and the number is just staggering.

Just the fact that Wade leads by such a huge margin is an incredible example of his skill, his athleticism, and his willingness to barrel his way to the rim and soar over big men.

At 6’4″, Wade would have to make up for a lot when he goes for a dunk against power forwards and centers, but his vertical leap and speed have been his greatest strengths (along with finesse, clutch, and game awareness).

Over the years, Wade has made poster compilations over some of the best centers and forwards in the league and one of them was on San Antonio Spurs superstar, Tim Duncan — one that most fans will notably remember.


Dwyane Wade Believed He Would Be In The GOAT Conversation

If not for the injuries that hampered him in the later stages of his career, the three-time NBA champion believed that he would be in the GOAT conversation.

When speaking to Shannon Sharpe on the Club Shay Shay podcast, Wade was confident that he could be on the Mount Rushmore of NBA greats.

“You doing the GOAT conversation with me… You take the injuries away, I’m still playing basketball right now if I want to… In my mind, I’m one of them dudes… You couldn’t tell me in 06, 07, 08 I wasn’t going where I wanted to.”

From 2005-06 to the 2007-08 season, he averaged 26.5 PPG, 5.0 RPG, and 7.0 APG for the Miami Heat. There is no doubt that he was one of the more prolific scorers and guards of his generation, and minus the injuries, he would have been one of the players mentioned in the GOAT chatter.
