infrared41 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 What if dunking was allowed in the NCAA during Wilt's time? It was. Wilt Chamberlain was playing for the Philadelphia 76ers when the NCAA banned dunking in basketball in 1967. You're thinking (in the broadest use of the word) of Lew Alcindor. PS: You're probably more familiar with him as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. And the dunk ban didn't slow him down one bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
