Can’t beat the original Jumpman. In this comparison, MJ actually launches from the free-throw while wemby lifts from the bottom of the free-throw circle. MJ’s Aerial feats are quite amazing and that’s part of what makes that free-throw line dunk iconic. Moreover wemby has about a good foot on MJ in height and wingspan which would only serve to make it easier to do what Jordan did.

MJ was 6’6 jumping from the free throw line 19ft… Wemby is being suggested at 7’3 jumping from closer circle line 13ft… not even from FT line…
These should not even be compared.

MJ for all the reasons the other comments in here say. But also Wemby because we are Spurs fans.

MJ for sure love Wemby though

We are all picking Jordan because we know Wemby can do even better than that.

Jordan = air delivery
Wembanyama = express ground

One of these was done during a game against an elite defender. That’s all I’m saying.

Love that Wemby dunk, but there’s a reason the MJ free throw slam is one of the most iconic sports moments of all time.
