Bio: According to TNT, Dupuy boasts a 59" vertical. Dupuy has become a YouTube sensation with videos of him jumping over three and four people before dunking. ESPN suggested his contest with fellow contestant Jordan Kilganon "might be the best dunk contest ever." Over his career, he has impressed NBA players like John Wall and Zach LaVine who served as the judges for the BET Dunk Contest he won in 2015. In fact, Dupuy's dunks have inspired NBA players during the annual dunk contest at All-Star Weekend. He spoke with FOX Sports about his relationship with LaVine. “The first time I met Zach LaVine, he said, ‘man, I’ve been watching you since I’ve been in high school.' If you look at my videos, then look at Zach LaVine’s, a lot of them come from myself. After the dunk contest, last year [2015], he did an interview where he mentioned my name: Guy Dupuy," Dupuy told FOX Sports. (Instagram/@therealfrequentflyer)
