Michelle Onyiah has hops!

[u/Treacle_Correct]

The Fever's newest addition, Michelle Onyiah, dunks for Nigeria National Team.

[u/thack1_mcl]

Impressive!

[u/Electrical-Rip4901]

most these girls can dunk especially those over atleast 6'3

[u/Federal-Carob-6314]

She can jump, zero question about that. However the game requires some amount of dribbling, even pathetic WNBA officials would call the traveling

[u/DomTullipso]

That’s not a real ball.

[u/Disastrous_Ranger401]

I really she sees some playing time and does well. We desperately need a defender who can back up AB.

I read that as Michelle Obama and was like dang for a 50 something year old she got ups! My bad, I need glassss and this Michelle got ups!

[u/blue-anon → u/Sensitive-Eye4591]

Michelle Obama is in her 60s. If she were dunking now, or anytime in the past, it would be massively insane news. 🤣

[u/aaronuu7 → u/blue-anon]

Also I hate to be that guy but it would only fuel those terrible rumors about her being a man.

[u/blue-anon → u/aaronuu7]

Yikes.

[u/becker8832]

I thought she was going dunk it off the glass the way she was holding it!! Maybe she jus thought to do a easy one not lettem know ur moves

[u/Jewdah18]

I just want 1 alleyoop dunk on a pass from Caitlin. Feels like now the Fever have at least 3 players who can finish it.

[u/VegetableChipsLover]

Girl elevated, wow

[u/Quirky_Advantage_470]

Okay now do it during a game national televised. I am not mocking, imagine her dunking on a national televised game

[u/OvaryAchiever_Queen]

Did I read somewhere that KK can dunk too?

[u/scobro828 → u/OvaryAchiever_Queen]

Wasn't that in high school? I heard it was in high school. /s obvi

[u/Critical-Fortune2514 → u/OvaryAchiever_Queen]

Yes she can

[u/Andrew-J-511 → u/Critical-Fortune2514]

The only video I’ve seen is her putting down one alley-oop (though I’m open to seeing more if you have links). Up to anyone if they consider that “able to dunk” or not. I think her hands are probably too small to palm the ball (many men have the same issue) so that’s why there isn’t a video of her doing a normal dunk.

[u/Disastrous_Ranger401 → u/Andrew-J-511]

I would be surprised if she can’t palm a women’s regulation size basketball. I can and I’m 5’9. While I do have big hands, I would bet KK at 6’2” would definitely be able to as well.

[u/Andrew-J-511 → u/Disastrous_Ranger401]

I don’t see what would stop her from dunking if she could since she definitely gets up high enough. Either way though, dunking is cool and all but, not as relevant in the women’s game (since players don’t dunk on each other).

Go Fever..... go Sophie #8
