5 NBA Players Who Could KISS THE RIM (Highest Jumps EVER)

Blake Griffen once jumped so high that he literally smashed his head against the backboard and as you can see he probably would have gone even higher throughout the years I've seen some inhuman jumps and in this video I'm gonna show you a few players who could go so high that they could kiss the rim what up everybody my name is Stefan and this is heat check let's get into it starting off at number five with a guy who did in fact I'm extremely close to actually kissing the rim Dwight Howard tried this at one of his dunk contests practice sessions and on his second attempt he hit his head that's how high he was so which should come as no surprise that Howard was able to fly so high on a Superman dunk that he was above the basket and that's how he could throw the ball inside Dwight's incredible athleticism in combination with his size allowed him to be high level with the basket quite a few times during his prime next up at number four here's the little surprise for you Shannon Brown Lakers fans definitely remember his dunks and blocks which were equally as impressive like look at where his head is on this dunk this is absolutely crazy and possibly even crazier are some of his defensive plays this is one of the most iconic blocks that I've seen and I don't even care that it was called a foul after losing the ball Brown catapulted himself and completely obliterated this shot and last one from Shannon take a look at this brown has to put his head down to not smash it against the iron and look at how far up his arm is this is almost his armpit at the rim which is hilarious number three is Blake Griffin excuse the grainy footage as this is the only proof of this monster jump by Blake head clearly above the rim plus he was fouled incredible force and jumping ability by Griffin and here's another dunk that not many of you know were similar to Shannon Brown his arm is so high up and also has to move his head a little bit to avoid hitting himself at number two LeBron James young LeBron could jump out of the building and this is one of my favorite flights that he took I've spent so much time watching all the different angles of this alley look at how high he is and of course the last-second head tilt to avoid bumping the RAM this is beautiful and there's another similar one by the way props to Norris Cole for apparently throwing the perfect lobs to maximize LeBrons vertical jump but the most iconic most absurd display of his jumping ability came in 2010 against the Blazers as you enjoy all the angles from this incredible leap I just want to say that this is probably the highest that an NBA player has ever jumped in my opinion feel free to let me know in the comments if you can find something better than this but I'm not sure you'll be able to but why is this a number two then because the number one is the guy who has the most jumps that I like to call kiss the rim its Gerald Green I mean the guy even has a windmill with his head clearly above the iron are you kidding me Gerald Green could possibly be the most underrated dunker in NBA history when you look at these clips you can see his raw jumping power and of course when he doesn't have to dunk the ball look at how high he can go this is unbelievable but honestly all five of these guys had crazy hops so you could pretty much place them however you want it on this list hopefully you hadn't seen most of these and you were able to enjoy this video that much more and before you post all these comments about Zion he technically hasn't played a single NBA game which puts him in the category with all the professional junkers which I know they could go way up but they never played in the league that's it for now if you like this video subscribe and hit the notification bell so that you don't miss my future in-depth analysis talk to you in the next one peace out
