The dunk, is the basic weapon of most of NBA stars, we almost can't see a game where Lebron James or Kobe Bryant doesn't dunk. That what makes us think that dunking is inevitable in order to get to the next level and be a great player.
If you look up for slam dunk on Google, you'll probably find out this answer:"Slam dunk is a type of basketball shot that is performed when a player jumps in the air and manually powers the ball downward through the basket with one or both hands over the rim. The slam dunk is one of the highest percentage shots one can attempt in basketball as well as one of the most crowd-pleasing plays". This last sentence specially attracted my attention:"as well as one of the most crowd-pleasing plays". So, can you guess what? Don't worry, I'm telling you anyway.
When people dunk, most of time it's for entertaining crowds and getting them on fire! It's not for additional points, because the dunk gives the same points as layup, even if the layup is much more easier than the dunk.
I'm telling you right here: you can be a great player without dunking! The proof? look at Chris Paul, Tony Parker, Stephen Curry, they're all great players but they almost never dunk.
Now you know it, even if you can't dunk, you still can be a good baller, dunking can only be a plus, it shouldn't be what your game is all about.
