Dunking has never been banned in the NBA. Dunking was banned in college ball between 1967-1976. It was thought that the ban was aimed at Lou Alcindor (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) to keep him from completely dominating the game. In interviews, John Wooden discounted this saying that the NCAA outlawed the dunk due to safety concerns from players hanging on rims and breaking backboards.
he played for 15 seasons
20 years
The NBA doesn't really show the "Games Started" statistic until after the 1981 season, so statistics for this are difficult to determine. However there are only a couple of players who played 20 seasons, and only one who played 21. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played for 20 seasons and started almost every game during those seasons. Therefore he would qualify if the question is '20 seasons or more'. If the qualification is 'more than 20 seasons' (21 or more), then there is only 1 player: Robert Parish. Parish played 21 seasons, and had 3 games as a starter (his fewest) in 1996-97 with the Chicago Bulls. He won his 4th championship with the Bulls.
