Kario Oquendo is used to dunking on the competition.
The 6-4, 220-pound Georgia guard has his favorite dunks, including the one he snatched last year against the Vols.

It’s easy to see why the dunk was the Guard’s favorite. With a strong drive, Oquendo caught Vol Santiago Vescovi in a bad position, and was afforded the opportunity to play Superman. Oquendo soared over Vescovi for a beautiful dunk from halfway down the lane.
Oquendo isn’t just capable of dunking, but scoring in general. The sophomore out of Titusville, Florida, was Georgia’s leading scorer both overall (15.2 ppg) and in SEC action (18.3 ppg). He started all 31 games he played, and only missed one game because of injury.
After a tumultuous season for the Bulldogs, Oquendo entered the transfer portal before ultimately deciding to remain at Georgia. His skills will be invaluable to Georgia this year, as the Bulldogs are looking to climb back from a disastrous 14-12 season that saw UGA finish 10th in the SEC.
