In 1967, the dunk was outlawed in high school and college, primarily to curtail Lew Alcindor's scoring. But Alcindor was no less dominant as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, developing another devastating shot the sky hook.

The NBA gives credit for the first dunk to George Mikan of the Minneapolis Lakers in 1961. The dunk has always been a legal shot in the NBA. However, College Basketball banned the dunk from 1967-1976.
