KB21 Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 The only thing I've seen is that John Gilchrist measured in at 6' 1 1/4" but has a wingspan of 6'10". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lascar78 Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Size matters The NBA released the measurements for Chicago predraft participants Thursday. As happens every year, everyone came up a little short. In fact, most of the prospects measure a half to three-quarters of an inch shorter than they did at the Portsmouth camp. Apparently, tape measure use is no longer a exact science. • Cincinnati's Jason Maxiell measued just 6-foot-5 without shoes. However his 7-3¼ wingspan makes up for a lot. • Florida's David Lee measured just 6-7¾ without shoes, nearly an inch shorter than the Nuggets measured him. • George Washington's Pops Mensah-Bonsu measured just 6-7¼ without shoes. • Memphis' Sean Banks was 6-5¾. • Oakland's Rawle Marshall came in at just 6-4½ in socks. • Chicago State's Deji Akindele was only 6-9½, well below the 7-1 measurement he had in college. • Gonzaga's Ronny Turiaf measured 6-8 in socks. • UTEP's Omar Thomas had the most shocking measurement. He played power forward this year but measured just 6-3¼. A few guys made up for short measurements with long wingspans. • Maryland's John Gilchrist measured just 6-1¼ in socks but had a 6-9¼ wingspan. • Brandon Rush had a 6-11¼ wingspan. • Charlotte's Eddie Basden's span was 6-10¼. • Deng Gai had a 7-4½ span. • Banks had a 7-1 wingspan. • Marcus Campbell had a 7-6 wingspan. So did D'or Fisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
