Following potential 2014 draftees

thats his dad, Jumpin' Joey Johnson

Joey Johnson! That's the dude. As a kid I remember being surprised Dennis Johnson had a brother who could jump out of the gym. As a kid watching the NBA in the 80s, Dennis Johnson was a solid PG, but sorta thick and definitely played below the rim. Apparently in his younger days, he could really fly, however.
 
This guy played at CSI in the mid-80s. That might be one reason it wouldn't be on Youtube. Keep in mind, I didn't say it actually happened - rather I used the terms "they said" and "legendary".

Also, whether it's possible or not, I'm not sure, but while James White is one of the great leapers of all-time, he's not the best I've ever seen. That title belongs to Michael Wilson, who played at Memphis in the mid-90s - an absolute freak jumper.

how tall was he though? james white is long.

in nba & collegian level - i think james white is clearly the best leaper of them all when you factor in the player's height and length. There are many smaller sick leapers in the youtube, but they are just too short to be even near the top of the backboard.

even michael wilson is only 6ft 4 barefoot. and he isn't long enough touch the top of the backboard. i know we can dunk 12ft rim, but all you have to do is jump 12 ft 6 inches to dunk 12ft rim comfortably. like dwight.

Could be. Wilson was a long 6'5", but white was 6'7" and didn't exactly have Redick arms either.

Kadour is in my opinion the greatest

this dude is 5'10-5'11"
 
Gordon is a sick athlete. I'm not a big fan of his game, but after about #6, I'd be fine with him just for the highlight reel - and hope he turns into Marion type guy. If he busts, hey, at least we get to see some ridiculous dunks for a few years.
 
Andrew Harrison is position-less and can't shoot that well. I don't hate him, but I have no idea what his game is. Seems like the twins are at their best when going to the rim, but I'm never amazed at any of their moves. They are the definition of average to me.

Preview of what's going to happen in the Arizona vs. SDSU game.

Great preview/game breakdown.

Don't we already have that with Evans?
