Contact Dunks are some of the most fun animations in the game, largely due to the fact that it is extremely fun to dunk over or through a defender.
However, not every build can get contact dunk animations, as they must have the following attribute requirements to be able to pull of contact dunks:
Pro Contact Dunks: 84+ Driving Dunk and 70+ Vertical (Same for Pro Contact Alley-Oops)
Elite Contact Dunks: 92+ Driving Dunk and 80+ Vertical (Same for Elite Contact Alley-Oops)
Small Contact Dunks: 86+ Driving Dunk, 85+ Vertical, and Height under 6’5″ (Same for Small Contact Alley-Oops)
Pro Standing Bigs: 80+ Standing Dunk, 65+ Vertical, and Height 6’10″+
Elite Standing Bigs: 90+ Standing Dunk, 75+ Vertical, and Height 6’10″+
Bigman Contact Dunks: 85+ Standing Dunk, 75+ Driving Dunk, 60+ Vertical, and Height 6’10″+
Another tip to get more contact dunk animations is to equip the Posterizer badge, which increase the frequency of contact dunks and is a necessity for slashers.

I have a specific question. Slashing takeover unlocks contact animations for certain builds, but if I have playmaking takeover and I have 80 driving dunk. The plus 5 boost I get to my driving dunk, will it give me contact dunks while In playmaking takeover?

Yeah, it would. You get +5 to driving dunk, but you’d get more frequent contact dunks in Slashing Takeover due to animation triggers aligned with being a slasher.

Question, I have a 7’1 Paint Beast with a 75 driving dunks and rim protector takeover. I can get the big man contact dunks. Do big man contact dunks include some poster dunks or are they all just contact standing dunks?

I have a 95 driving dunk for my 6’5″ point guard 2 way slasher. Having this, it won’t let me dunk on the majority of big men in mypark. Do I have to have a specific strength requirement? By the way, I have HOF badges on contact, consistent, and slithery finisher.

I Have a mid range slasher and when I hit 99 I get a 83 driving dunk, Can I get contacts in game with boost at the stand without takeover, or when I score a couple points? Pls lemme me know thanks

I don’t think boosts will get you over the top, but I know for certain scoring a few points (probably two layups/dunks) will get you past the 85 threshold.

It depends on your vertical, big man standing dunks require a certain vertical rating this year

Hey I made a big with the metric system at 2.08m the required height for big men contact dunks and the animations are locked with me having all the requirements to unlock them. I could really use some help with this after putting all my vc on this build.

I’m a little late here but isn’t it +5 to every ability that is secondary and +10 to your builds strongest attributes.

2.08 on the metric system is 6’10 but for some reason you can’t get big men contact dunks.
