Last season, in 82 games, the San Antonio Spurs finished with 18 alley-oop dunks. This season, through just 54 games, the Spurs have not only doubled that amount, but they’ve already completed 39 total alley-oop dunks.
Going from 18 to 39 alley-oop dunks in a single season has put the Spurs in the current Top-10 of teams that have completed the most alley-oop dunks this season, where they’re tied for 8th with the Phoenix Suns, who have also made 39 alley-oop dunks.
While the Spurs did add seven new players this past offseason, one specific new addition to the team has really given the Spurs a lift in the alley-oop department, and that’s 7’0” center, Dewayne Dedmon.
