@@handlebucket6285 Almost every single NBA Player is listed on average 1-2 inches taller than they are. Spud was really 5'5 if you read up on it. Barkley is only about 6'4 but listed as 6'6. Allen Iverson wasn't even 6ft tall(My brother who is just under 6ft tall met him in VA back in like 2010 and was taller than him, they took a pic together and it was noticeable.) Dwight Howard is 6'9 but listed himself at 6'11. All of this was commonplace until the NBA changed the rule a couple years ago. Some were actually listed shorter like KD. He was listed as 6'9 but is just under 6'11. It was usually their college listed height that was simply carried over to the NBA.
ali akhtar back in the day you could play the game at spuds height and not get murdered by athleticism. Now you got 6'8" small forwards/power forwards who weigh 240 ball handling. The game evolved and so did the athletes, it's become a game where if you don't have height you get exposed regardless of how good you are.
To this day, still one of the most inspirational moments for me. Spud seemingly from out of nowhere, won the slam dunk contest when it was big boy rules. one and done. You didn't get 5 tries to make one dunk like they do now. But had Spud been 6' +, Nique wins!
That fast break jam against the Lakers was crazy! Only wish Green, Johnson, or Cooper had tried to block it so they could a got crammed on (plus the foul) by the shortest player in the league! Would a been the play of the season had Johnson tried to block that shot and got jammed on by Spud (plus the foul). Underdog going against a Legend, beating him with his speed. I don't think Magic would a lived that down for awhile. That's something that Bird, Jordan, Ewing, and all the other future legends would have got quick a kick out of! How you gonna let Spud beat you, Magic? LOL! =)
Hey man can you make a "Peyton Manning: The End" kind of video? That's what's needed, especially after his recent SB ring and 99% likely last game ever.
I'm 5'7 Male and proud! Height isn't everything! You can be successful no matter what! Just be nice to yourself first than to others + work hard to achieve your life goals❤😍
At 5'7 pushing. He was a bad ass. It was David against goliath people. He took over. Cause he had talent. God gave him talent.cause just ur small. Small people are special.
Man if I only knew these players like spud webb and mugsy bogues when I was growing up, I will probably be in NBA, but I grew up watching MJ and he was 6'6
He lives two houses down for me right now in life nicest guy you’ll ever meet in the world. I shot basketballs at his house about two weeks ago inside his gym in his home with him and his nephew and some friend of his nephews
for those who are being astonished by the last dunk .........there was a trampoline assisting spudd..hence not showing full view...............i know even i dont want to admit it....... but anyways no one can hide from the truth
A crazy athletic and fast player very talented too he could score pass and even defend too bad he was wasted in Sacramento could of had a ring with the Bulls
Measurements actually proved that he was actually 5'5 without shoes!
J Crossover 5’5 1/2” according to CelebHeights.

@@mk-ultramags1107 so muggsy was 5 foot?
@@mk-ultramags1107 That's still not proof. Mark Eaton was a legit 7"4
I see he's mastered the double jump.
@MUFC no one cares
@@NextMeteor facts like tf no one asked 🤣
@MUFC Most people in US dont want to play that weak sport
He mastered Dribbling and Dunking at the Sametime. Even Chris Lykes can't do that and he is the same height as Spudd Webb.
dude this guy kills the excuse " i cant play basketball cuz i am short" Daaaaaaayuummmmmm his INSANEEEEE
ali akhtar it makes it insanely harder
The exception is not the rule.

Like all things in life. The competition only gets more vicious.
Troy Koester Thats not true at all
I love Spuds. I went to Jr college with him and we used to work out together. A phenomenal athlete. His quickness was not of this earth.
At 1:25 when he almost did the freethrow line dunk. I lost it.
same
11 dude ikr!
hes dunked further than that in a competition
In a game too....WOW!!
11 Nothing is impossible in this World.
How is the coast to coast dunk starting at 1:22 not on every highlight for best dunks of all time?
For real
especially with Magic, Cooper, and Green back court. That's a poster!!!
MUFC no one gives a fuck
I considered one of the greatest dunks of all time.
@MUFC no one cares, stop leaving this comment on random basketball highlight videos.
The 80s 90s we had just so many NBA legends.
it really did bro its like shit will never be like this again
Golden age of NBA
The Nba was stacked.
Lmao "Keep practicing son" at the end. What a savage 😂
lol I loved that too! Spud Webb inspired me to do things even though I was short too.
still amazing to see him dunk!!!!

dude got magic in his legs
Wow, what am inspiration. This is truly what you call proving everybody who doubted you wrong.
I can't believe this guy can dunk.
punk four look at Nate Robinson
Jack Jack nate is 5 9 or 5 10. I have seen people that height dunk. But 5 7?? Never seen one
punk 4 there is a 5 2 dunker
I'm 6'2 and I can barely touch rim
punk 4 believe it bitch
You would never believe it if someone told you, this guy is absolutely beyond incredible.
He was a bad boy as ever there was on,every 100 years a player of his caliber come along.march2022.
Basketball was at its most beautiful in the 80s and 90s.
Jordan was like bruh
Chelsea Bocanegra his lips read "OOOH SHITTT"
Jordan called him a midget
@@davidespinoza102 that was Mugsy
Height doesn't matter. Im 5'7 already touching rim just by working on my legs for a few weeks now. Lets get it 💯
Jordan Noel height does matter you would never see a 5'0 guy in basketball no matter how good he is
The Controversey actually you can but just not in the nba.
The Controversey im talking about when it comes to jumping not being in the nba
Jordan Noel I'm 5'6 can only dunk if I throw myself in alley I can't jump straight up like spud can
The Controversey Actually, look up Mugsy Bogues.
"Keep practicing son" 😂😂😂 I love Spud Webb.
How about showing my favorite littel guy Tyrone"Mugsy" Bougs a little love.
bogues stole the ball from everyone and made it look so easy
3:33 Nobody is immune to greatness ... ;)
Unbelievable, incredible NBA athlete during his career.
spudd webb is my new favorit player
As a kid growing up in Georgia who loved basketball... Spud and Dominique were a show.
Someone should make a movie about this man and his life!
@joseph Vincent keep up the good work, looking forward to your work going mainstream, you have incredible talent.
+Saldoce Media Thanks! Very kind of you to say.
Yeah put respect on 5'7 dudes name. This dude has mad confidence
Hops and vertical is insane!
The sound effects tho. 😭😂🤣
His height was never a disadvantage in the Dunk Contest. It was always an advantage, he had a longer hang time and perform more on air.
@JOSEPH VINCENT YOUR VIDS ARE CRAZY GOOD
Thanks for watching!
+Joseph Vincent I love the sounds of the basketball dribbling. Keep up with the good videos.
The 1 minute and 30 second mark....OHHH MYYY GOODNESSSSS.... HE FLUSHED IT ON MAGIC
Dang! The last one was awesome. He’s wearing a dress shoes!
one of my favorite player of all time.
I was a Celtics fan but when Spud was on the court I watched!
This Video Is So Dope To Me!! I Loved Spudd! #HeartOverHeight
That fast break jam against the Lakers was crazy! Only wish Green, Johnson, or Cooper had tried to block it so they could a got crammed on (plus the foul) by the shortest player in the league!

Man ooo man You put Atlanta on the map.
Definitely a great player one of my favorites
Muy genial
Estos videos me motivan más y aunque no se ingles...veo que todos celebran las victorias de Webb
El gran pequeño Webb
He has better in-game dunks than Nate Robinson.
grew up watching him man he blew me away I used to be like" Webb for the win"
*dwarf in flesh but GIANT IN SPIRIT!*
He’s not a dwarf moron
That aint a dwarf bro lol
Hey man can you make a "Peyton Manning: The End" kind of video? That's what's needed, especially after his recent SB ring and 99% likely last game ever.
Spud jumped off that god damn trampoline at da end. 😂😂😂😂😂
👍👍👍
Spud Webb- the Basketball Hero of the Small Ones
Echoes of Mars MoonDragon or muggsy
One of the best dunkers ever, he’s so small but can do so much
Spud is a beast 👹👹
mugsby bouges next man
plz
He did one already
Ya
No, i'm for Nate Robinson or Isaiah Thomas
I'm 5'7 Male and proud! Height isn't everything! You can be successful no matter what! Just be nice to yourself first than to others + work hard to achieve your life goals❤😍
spud webb big king
what a beast lol straight legend and freak of nature loll
At 5'7 pushing. He was a bad ass. It was David against goliath people. He took over. Cause he had talent. God gave him talent.cause just ur small. Small people are special.
Imagine if this guy was 6 sumthing🔥🔥🔥
great video,spud king of web
never heard of this man until now
Man if I only knew these players like spud webb and mugsy bogues when I was growing up, I will probably be in NBA, but I grew up watching MJ and he was 6'6
Inspite of people of the Philippine's small heights and sizes, basketball is the no.1 sport of the country and there are many Spud Web like players.
The legendary freak of nature
Simplesmente INCRÍVEL
This lil nigga flewwww 😂
really great videos. Congratulations.
Best short dude to play
3:30 when you think there's no toilet paper then you realize that there's some on the ground
imagine how good of a high jumper he would have been
His vertical is 42"
Is that due to strength, practice, genetics?
T strength and practice
If you make your legs stronger and practice a lot then you can jump higher
@@_____blank_____7507 how do u make legs stronger
Lot's of training and genetics
I thought his vertical was 46"
unforgotten fame..
If you got Jordan stunned then you know you made it
I can't handle these sound effects lmao
Very impressive. He may be the only one 5 7 and under that was able to dunk in history
Marty Bernad He was the only person 5’7” and under to dunk in NBA history. Muggsy Bogues was 5’3”, but couldn’t dunk.
He lives two houses down for me right now in life nicest guy you’ll ever meet in the world. I shot basketballs at his house about two weeks ago inside his gym in his home with him and his nephew and some friend of his nephews
Wow fr?
Como ele conseguiu realizar essa proeza?! Fenômeno mito 1,70 enterrando numa cesta de 3,05 absurdo de mais.
Inacreditável
The best dunker ever
That man got hops!! Period
joseph vincent great video
Keep the Basketball ones coming man!
More videos pls u take forever
Did the announcer at 2:00 called him Spuddd Well?
can you please do one for Malcom Floyd? He's done so much for the chargers and its a shame he's retiring without much attention
Yes please do Malcolm Floyd
360 yes scopes for vishnu Yeah Malcolm Floyd was a consistent beast at WR for the bolts over a long career
It still does not compute. How?
Did anyone think how spud means potatoe, and the crowd was basically chanting POTATO POTATO POTATO!!!
for those who are being astonished by the last dunk .........there was a trampoline assisting spudd..hence not showing full view...............i know even i dont want to admit it....... but anyways no one can hide from the truth
3:52 His head is like 4-5 inches below the rim, which means he jumped 4 feet in the air... That’s crazy
Dude had hella heart!
Let's see a Todd Gurley rookie of the year video!!!!
I'm 5 ' 11 and can only touch the rim with effort , spud dunks. I need to step up my verticals
He was a rockstar
the real jump champ!!!
Your editing is great

that last clip was great
A crazy athletic and fast player very talented too he could score pass and even defend too bad he was wasted in Sacramento could of had a ring with the Bulls
does anyone know the soundtrack from 1:28 to the end?
We have to see a Marshawn Lynch BEASTMODE retirement tribute
+Vikes4Life Dang bruh why you so mad. You still salty about the Vikings losing the playoffs.
