Dunking is not unsportsmanlike conduct. The actions accompanying this might be. Punish those actions.
BTW, I don't support this or oppose it. Just playing devil's advocate.

Well, iirc the rationale used by the FED when they initiated this rule was to guard against possible equipment damage. The rule was initiated back in the days of the fixed rims. Breakaway rims did take away a lot of the "equipment damage" concerns also. So....I guess that you can say "hmmmmmm".
Of course, I did have a backboard go on a pre-game dunk once too.......just as we were walking onto the court.
