basketball players are probably the most athletic of the 4 major sports.

Yes.. You can't play basketball without conditioning. You also need good functional strength.

I'd say baseball players are the least athletic because baseball is a skill sport more than anything. Otherwise you wouldn't have fat mexicans like Manny Ramirez being one of the best in the sport.

Placement of the calves and glutes determine a good jumper! W/o sounding racist most afro-americans have high calves and high glutes.

Perhaps not a bodybuilder, but Powerlifters and Olympic lifters are pretty fair dunkist. Shane Hammon and big Paul Anderson were able to, quite a few others too.

Football players are the most athletic.

Not that Euro Football but the American sport.

Mark Henry has done it, before. I remember seeing a video of him, doing that on TV (I think it was on the Oprah Winfrey show).

As for bodybuilders, Phil Heath played college basketball in Colorado. He may be able to dunk. And, Joel Stubbs played ball, too (which is how he wrecked his knees).

NBA players have to be the most athletic.  When you say "football players", you're grouping the offensive linemen who do nothing but shove and fight and run 3 years, to the wide receivers who run 50-yard routes over and over.   Too much variance.

With the NBA, you're exposed and you have to run the court and play O and D.
