Is Derrick Brown Knicks' Highest Flyer Since Latrell Sprewell?


Whenever Derrick Brown has been given the opportunity to get on the court for the Knicks, he soars--literally.

The Knicks' newest high flyer certainly has hops, but just how does he matchup against some of the team's better dunkers of recent years?

Knicks fans have gotten enjoyment from watching Bill Walker throw down dunks of his own. They roared as three-time Dunk Contest Champion Nate Robinson leap over the likes of Yao Ming and Dwight Howard.

As fate would have it, though, it appears as though the seldom-used Brown may be the Knicks' most powerful in-game dunker since Latrell Sprewell. Brown's throw down tomahawk dunk last night, to cap off a positive individual performance and even greater team win, was like those of Sprewell's that got many Garden playoff crowds up on their feet.

Where do you think Brown ranks among Knicks slammers of recent years? Let me know @KnicksJournal on Twitter.
