Yahoo, ESPN and NBA.com ALL have him as 6'9".
And considering Demar was measured at 6'5" a few years ago and is now listed at 6'7" everywhere you look, I think it's fair to say that 'Height w/ Shoes' is being measured. And you never know, these guys are still very young, and their bodies are only now getting PROPER, professional nutrition and training. So growing an inch at age 21-22 isn't completely ridiculous.

Check out the Star today of the group Raptor pic in London. JJ, DD and Sonny are standing together (left backrow). Either DD has grown or JJ's mentioned height isn't kosher. Thought Sonny & DD were the same ht. (not).

if were using that picture as a guide then its pretty fair to say JJ is about 6'8-6'9, DD is 6'6-6'7, sonny is 6'5'-6'6, johnson is most likely standing straighter because he is beside ajinca so id say amir is abuot 6'9-6'10, wright is about 6'6-6'7. ajinca is definetly 7'2 +.
It really doesnt matter to me, im 5'10 3/4 but i always say im 5'11. plus these guys advantage are their length. they may not look as tall as another player but i bet he can get higher then their oppenent.Last edited by pesterm1; Thu Mar 3, 2011, 04:32 PM.

I shared an elevator with Calderon a few times, there's no way the man is 6'2. 6 feet max with a small frame. Shawn Marian was also much shorter than you'd expect. Kris Humphries was big but not gigantic (but my girlfriend kept mentioning him, which was worrisome.
Garbajosa, on the other hand, was huuuuge.

I met a number of NBA players when the Grizzlies were in Vancouver and only a couple were as tall as they were listed.Read my blog, The Picket Fence. Guaranteed to make you think or your money back!
