Yes, he did. At first glance, it appeared to the TNT Basketball analysts and the audience that Dwight Howard actually dunked the basketball after jumping off from slightly inside the free throw line. However, after viewing instant replay, it was apparent that Dwight Howard actually threw the ball in rather than dunking it.

Who has the craziest dunk in the NBA?

Dwight Howard has one of the most memorable dunks in the history of the NBA during the 2008 slam dunk contest in New Orleans. He took off his shirt to unveil a superman outfit, following this already astonishing move by jumping from the free-throw line and dunking it. However, a replay showed that he actually threw the ball in without even touching the rim, making the play even more memorable. In real time, it appeared as a dunk.
