38-40 inches depending on how long your arms are. Your reach (at your height) should be somewhere in the low 7 feet range
if you want to be able to dunk well you have to get about 10 1/2 feet high so you can clear a regulation ball remember for a real dunk your wrist has to go over the rim
that's just for a basic dunk more if you want to get something fancy going

12 inches = 1 foot
basketball court is 10 feet = 120 ins
you standing reach 90 ins = 7 feet 6 inches
30 inches to grab. 90 + 30 +120.
To Dunk you would need 38 Inches to dunk with 2 hands
, but it would be better if it is 40 that way you can tell everyone you jump 40 inches when you dunk on them

You have to hold your arm above your head measure in inches to about the middle of your hand then subtract that total from 122 not 120 because you have to get the ball over the rim. Dont forget Spud Webb won the nba slamdunk contest and was 3 inches shorter than you. Lots of calf exercises will help

That would depend on long your arms are. I'd say on average about 2.5 feet of vertical leaping would probably do it.

The length of your arms is missing from the equation, but I'm guessing about 33".

4 foot 3 minus the length of your arm.
