MarkB Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I'm pretty sure there is a height limit in the NBA. Not sure if this guy would even be allowed to play in the NBA for that reason alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this guy would even be allowed to play in the NBA for that reason alone. I'm pretty sure that there is no height limit in the NBA, and even if there was, the tallest person to play was 7'7, George Muresan, so I doubt 7'9 would be above the limit if there is one.

MarkB Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Hmmm. I'll need to check that out. I'm sure I remember reading about it when I had an old sports rulebook around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you are correct. I believe Manute Bol, 7'7.5" was the tallest ever in the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
