Five have won it twice Harold Minor, Jason Richardson, Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkins, and Nate Robinson
From seasons 84/85 till 95/96 he dunked 2186 times in regular season and 448 times in playoffs. There are still many more times he has dunked, however. He dunked during high school, college, during All-Star games, pre-season games, the slam dunk contest, and in other games during his career. The above numbers are just through around 10 seasons.
It was George Mikan of the Minneapolis Lakers, in 1961, 100% positive. That's who the NBA gives official credit to. The referees tried to call a foul on him for the shot. Upon reviewing the rules, the bucket counted. It became termed a 'dunk shot' until 1972, when Chuck Hern called it a 'slam dunk'.
It was selected 3 times (1908, 1948, 2012) because it won the candidate city contest.
