    Exclamation Dunk problem

    I'm 6.05 (half an inch from 6.1), I have a standing reach if 7.9, my wingspans is 6.2, and my vertical is roughly 33-35 inches. Why can't I throw it down? What am I doing wrong? *note my hands are small and I can't palm a ball

    You need to work your legs more it sounds with leg press,squats etc. I was stuck hitting the back iron for years until I took my leg work serious. Also box jumps helped me, along with standing under the rim and reaching left to right until I was burned out. You will get it, just remember dunking isn't everything ask John Stockton or Jason Kidd.

    Just do your squats, lunges, leg press, calves, etc. You'll get there if you're consistent on legs. Another thing that'll help is if you have an adjustable court. Put it on 9ft or whatever that is perfect for you and keep dunking on that for practice. I'm currently dunking on 10ft, but barely.
