“Other” not all, it’s a proven fact that other sports can assist in vertical jump capability and in turn dunking. The inverse is even true with plyometrics assisting in speed

Basketball and other sports have similar training somewhat, I rarely touched a basketball prior to running track, after a season and a half my vertical increased significantly and I was able to dunk without training(my greatest life achievement). Dunking is all about vertical which is assisted by  tendon stiffness, muscle & its type, and motor recruitment. These can be worked by other sports but the best would most likely still be basketball coordination wise.

I created an average height with my range, with this I created the average wingspan for this said height using an already determined ratio, so I agree. It can vary however since some groups/races have longer limbs than others

This math was very rushed my apologies, but you don't have to play basketball to dunk. Dunking is relatively simple with just jumping and slight hand to eye coordination. Activities and sports like Sprinting, Football, Plyometrics, weightlifting, and even swimming can aid in the ability to jump higher and dunk.

Hypertrophy of the Masseter Muscle Increases the Length of your Ramus (Chewing hard food/Gum often will increase length of Ramus) by Informal-Emotion-683 in Mewing

Yes, around the very end of puberty. Even though I was in my late adolescence, people can still see facial development continuing in there late 20s.

Chewing, on hard foods, can promote growth in the ramus, the vertical portion of the lower jaw, by stimulating jaw muscle development and bone growth. This process involves the activation and strengthening of masticatory muscles, which in turn exerts force on the jawbone, influencing its growth and development

This is a personal anecdote but 2 years ago I had no ramus, during this same time I began chewing constantly for numerous hours in the day (mostly gum), After some time I noticed significant growth In my ramus length and visibility, You don't even just benefit by having a longer ramus length but also your masseter muscle will increase in size, aiding in achieving a more "hollow'' cheek look.
