    Lol. I just meant like, is there a photo of him recently next to a 7 footer where hes clearly much shorter? Or standing next to someone who is 6'9 and they're roughly the same height? I know he wasn't 6'11 last year obviously. I'd just like to see something recent that makes it clear that he hasn't grown.

    They’re doing that crap they do in hs and college where they add 1-2 inches to everyone’s height. Most of that is way off. There’s just no way! Tate, Sengun, Jalen, KPJ, and Gup’s are off… KJ too tbh

    I just want a picture! Someone show me that it's fake news. Surely there are some pictures from the summer fiba games to debunk these WWE heights from the rockets?

    It’s funny how everyone grew, including 33 year old EG. I’m his age btw so maybe I’ll grow too?!?

    Clearly Sengun is only 6’0, if that…

    Just accept that Sengun is a 7-footer with shoes.

    I think Sengun is the same height as Jabari, and with a heavier base (but still very flexible/smooth).

    Sengun is the most disrespected Rocket. First people want to replace him with Wemby. Now they want Smith to muscle in on his minutes.

    No, people just realize what KPJ is. Name one other player who literally quit at halftime

    Same could be said for Scoot.
    Alp is a much higher upside player than KPJ

    All I know is one is gonna be closing games, and the other is gonna be on the bench. Silas even said how they’ll be switchable when Sengun is off the floor and how Jabari will play some 5. It’s inevitable at this point. If we draft scoot, KPJ could slide to the 3. If we draft Wemby, Sengun is gone or gonna be on the bench

    We’ll see.
    KPJ isn’t playing at the 3 on this team.
    Alp at the 4 would be better with Jabari at the 3 and Wemby at the 5

    Sengun at the 4 would be disastrous, on both ends. He’s gone if we draft Wemby. I don’t us getting him anyways, so Sengun will be here. I like him a lot, just not blind to his weaknesses he needs to improve

    No he wouldn’t be, that’s what he plays internationally.
    He actually guarded well on perimeter switching, and with Wemby back there it would work.
