The official statistical standard of dunk excellence
Every Dunk Has a Stat. Every Stat Builds a Legacy.
The DunkStat Rating System™ records five measurable stat categories for every approved dunk: Power, Creativity, Difficulty, Execution, and Style. Each category receives a stat value from 0 to 20, producing a maximum DunkStat Total of 100 and an official D1–D6 classification.

Stat review and certification
Independent stat review. Transparent classification.
Reviewers record each stat category independently and may use video replay for close decisions. Difficulty is the first tie-breaker, followed by Creativity. A head reviewer makes the final ruling.
D6 is a special classification that overrides the numerical stat total when a dunk involves dangerous, rule-breaking, or structural impact. The Stanfill Rule™ identifies dunks beyond legendary status involving backboard interaction and structural impact.
