This is the story of Earl “The Goat” Manigault and how he conquered Rucker Park. He was only 6’1″, but due to the fact that he wore ankle weights as a child during practice he had tremendous jumping ability. Legend has it he dunked two-handed during a game from near the foul line over two players much taller than himself. He also reverse dunked 36 times in a row to win a $60 bet. NBA All Time Scoring Leader Kareem Abdul-Jabbar called Manigault “the greatest player I have ever seen.”
