This collection has 22 free Slam Dunk coloring pages — 21 pages of Shohoku High’s basketball team in jerseys, mid-play action, or the anime’s famous train-crossing scene, plus 1 page that turned out to be an unrelated portrait with no jersey, team name, or basketball anywhere in it. Seventeen pages are solo character studies — a player alone, on the bench or mid-play. The other four gather two or more teammates in the same frame, including a chibi lineup of the full starting five under a 3D “SLAM DUNK” logo. Every page is black and white on US Letter, downloads as a free PDF, and needs no signup.
Across the solo portraits, the “SHOHOKU” team name is never drawn as flat block letters — every page outlines it in a double-line varsity font that throws its own drop shadow, whether it’s stretched tight across a jersey chest or curved down a bent arm. The players’ hair gets the same layered treatment: every strand fans out from a single root point instead of filling in as one shape, from a player’s upright spikes to another’s damp curls after a game. None of the jersey lettering is drawn as a single flat outline, so a two-tone pencil approach — one shade for the letter body, a darker one for its drop-shadow edge — reads far closer to a real varsity uniform than one flat color would.
What’s in this collection
Seventeen pages show a single Shohoku player, four gather two or more teammates together, and one page turned out not to be Slam Dunk at all — 22 in total, in the grid below. Each has its own Download PDF and Print button, so you can take one page instead of the whole set.
Shohoku players, solo portraits and mid-play action
Nine pages catch a Shohoku player off the court or between plays — toweling off on the bench, biting his own jersey collar, resting a ball on his shoulder, or sitting with a signed ball and an oversized gym bag. Four more freeze a player mid-play: dribbling downcourt, driving hard toward the rim, or rising for a dunk shot from a dramatic low angle. One page renders the team’s redheaded ace in chibi style with his full name, “HANAMICHI,” spelled out beside him in block letters. The last three put a girl in Shohoku gear front and center — two hold a basketball while wearing the team jersey or tank top, and one stands in her school uniform at a train-track crossing, a nod to the anime’s famous opening scene, with no basketball anywhere in that frame.
Team huddles, chibis, and the full starting five
The other four pages put two or more teammates in the same frame. A chibi pair stands shoulder to shoulder wearing numbers 10 and 7. A close two-shot has the number-10 player and a wide-eyed teammate both reaching for the same ball. A chibi lineup gathers five Shohoku players together — numbers 4, 10, and 11 are legible on their jerseys, the other two partly hidden behind teammates. And the widest page in the set seats five players together on a bench, jersey numbers 10, 11, and 14 visible across the row, above a large 3D “SLAM DUNK” logo and a basketball icon.
One page that isn’t clearly Slam Dunk
One page breaks from the set. It shows a short-haired figure sitting cross-legged with a towel draped over one shoulder, wearing a plain crew-neck T-shirt with a few illegible letters and unbranded sneakers — no “SHOHOKU” team name, no jersey number, and no basketball anywhere in the frame. It reads as a generic post-workout portrait rather than a confirmed Slam Dunk scene. It’s included here because it carries the same tag as the other 21, described honestly rather than relabeled as something it isn’t.
How to print these
Every page is US Letter (8.5 × 11 in), pure black and white, with the drawing inside the printable margin. Plain copy paper works fine for the two chibi pages and the simpler bench portraits; the densely cross-hatched action shots and the five-player group scene hold up better on heavier paper if you’re using a fine-tip pen instead of a crayon.
FAQ
Are all 22 pages actual Slam Dunk characters?
No — 21 pages show the Shohoku High basketball team in jerseys, mid-play action, or the anime’s train-crossing scene. One page is a plain-clothes portrait with no jersey, team name, or basketball visible, and it’s described honestly above rather than relabeled as a Slam Dunk scene.
Which jersey number shows up most in this set?
Number 10 is the most common, appearing clearly on 8 of the 22 pages. Number 7 appears on 4 pages, and numbers 4, 11, and 14 each show up on 2-3 pages, including the group scenes.
Which pages are easiest for a young child to color?
The two chibi pages — the number 10-and-7 duo and the five-player lineup — have the simplest shapes and thickest outlines. The close-up bench and portrait pages carry more linework, with individual hair strands, muscle shading, and jersey folds, and suit an older colorer with a fine-tip marker better than a young child with a crayon.
Can I download all 22 as one file?
Not as a single file. Each page has its own Download PDF button in the grid, which keeps the files small and lets you build your own selection.
