I knew someone would bring up his missed dunks. Yeah, a couple were catapulted into the stands.BeachedBear said:
Devon Hardin . . .
One of the most athletic big guys.
One of the nicest players I've met.
Probably also has the Cal record for most missed dunks.
Like many, his overall work did not translate to in-game situations that well (similar to many shooters).
For in-game, clutch moment dunking, I'd go with Lamond Murray. Probably because he seemed so calm and unassuming at other times. Roy Fisher is up there as well IMHO. Also Billy Dreher had more good dunking moments than expected (more than a few against bigger, taller defenders - who then looked dumbfounded).
But I remember his thunder dunks and how it would ignite Haas
And when a top post player in the conference was asked who was the toughest player he ever went up against, he said it was Devon Harden
