To be honest, every rookie looked amazing in the summer league except Wiescamp, got lit up by an undrafted player
Kuminga looked alright vs a team of rookies playing 4 guards and a center....but his team still lost and the standout performance of the game was by the 7 footer Yurtseven.
We have an official height on Christopher from the combine at 6’3.25 barefoot and Green is clearly taller. So he’s 6’4 barefoot at the very least which would still be taller than guys like Wade, Beal, Oladipo, Anthony Edwards, and Donovan Mitchell to name a few. I think him needing to pack on some muscle is the real concern.
The reason I'm hoping he's 6'5 is exactly because he has a much slimmer build than Edwards, Mitchell, Eric Gordon etc who are built like tanks. Green is more wirey like Lavine. Short and slim is destined to be a defensive liability, so the extra inch or so is more important.
No I completely get it. He is much slimmer and not as strong. He’ll get bigger and stronger though as he matures. Hopefully sooner rather than later. Also reportedly both MJ and Kobe didn’t even measure 6’5 barefoot. Their listed 6’6 heights were with shoes. They were both actually 6’4 and some change.
I believe it, MJ played in an era when everyone exaggerated their height. But he also had a longer wingspan and huge hands. I guess time will tell if Green can hopefully become wirey strong like a KD, Richard Hamilton etc.
Thank you man, but I'm OK with paying for it. I guess it's not separated from the NBA League Pass (some years ago it was).
I was saying it over and over pre draft: Maximum mode Mobley will be an SF. He's just so skilled and fluid no matter what the size. I'm happy with the Green pick but Mobley could be something special.
