How to Slam Dunk!

Introduction

Not many people can do this move, because it has been kind of complicated, but if you can, it’s an awesome move to achieve. This movement is known as the “slam dunk.” The term “slam dunk” was first coined by former L.A. Lakers announcer Chick Hearn. The slam dunk is one of the highest percentage field goals one can attempt in basketball as well as one of the most crowd-pleasing plays. Other terms for slam dunk include "jam," "stuff," "flush," "cram," or "throw down.”
