Webb was returning home to participate in the All-Star Game festivities, and he needed his family, who owned a convenience store in South Dallas, there to witness it. The shortest man in the NBA was a perfect 9-for-9 in dunk contests to that point in his basketball career. So the 5-foot-7 Webb came into the NBA Slam Dunk Contest not only looking for his 10th victory but also perfect 10s from the judges too.

And so it went. For his final shot, he stretched his arm at midcourt and got ready to take flight. A one-handed, overhand bounce pass made a pit stop on the ground before connecting with the backboard and, like a yo-yo, returning to his outstretched hand.
