Fran Vazquez, SpainThe high-flying Vazquez dunked a total of 8 times, in wins at Belarus and at home over Montenegro. The veteran, as he so often does, had some alley-oop slams.
...
Hamed Hadadi, IranIran's most famous big put on a show in World Cup Asia Qualifiers wins at Kazakhstan and then at home over Iraq. On one move, Hamed faced the basket and just went right at the defender before soaring in and dunking with his left hand. He stuffed it 5 times in February.
...
Moustapha Fall, FranceThe 7ft 2in (2.18m) Paris-born pivot threw it down 5 times in February, in home triumphs over Russia and Belgium. On one of his dunks, Fall spun to the baseline and then jammed it with one hand, showing his tremendous wingspan.
...
Javier Carter, PanamaCarter was a dunking machine last month, especially on put-backs, as Panama went 2-0. Carter had a total of 5 dunks as his team beat Uruguay and Paraguay.
...
Miroslav Raduljica, SerbiaSilky smooth and powerful, Raduljica had 4 dunks in a February that saw Serbia lose at Germany and win at Austria. Which ones stood out? Against the Austrians, the 30-year-old split two defenders and rammed it home on one play.
...
Satnam Singh, IndiaHe's big, he's bad (in a good way) and he's only 22. The India colossus put on a dunking show in February. He clearly likes to rock the rim with two hands. Satnam had 4 dunks in the second window.
...
Hrvoje Peric, CroatiaThe dunker from Dubrovnik dazzled with four February flushes for his country at home, in a loss to Romania and a victory over the Netherlands. Peric showed he's got some hops.
...
Zoran Nikolic, MontenegroGet used to seeing the Montenegrin masher because at just 21, he's going to be in the sport for a long time. Nikolic clearly likes the two-handed jam the most.
...
Matthew Hodgson, Australia'Hodgy' had 4 February dunks, in wins over the Philippines and Chinese Taipei. Among his beauties was a two-handed reverse jam against the latter!
...
Anzejs Pasecniks, LatviaThe Gran Canaria pivot, only 22, is a dunking machine. He had 4 in February, including one against Turkey after catching a sweet pass from Janis Blums.
