Measurements

Marcus Morris alligator arms seem to have been greatly exaggerated. He measured a very respectable 6'10 ! With his advanced game and shooting I'm really liking him as a potential SF pick at #12.

Faried measured tiny at 6'6", smaller than Millsap, unbelievable. Guess his hair gave the appearance he was bigger.

Fortunately he doesn't rebound or block shots with his forehead. Wingspan is 1.5" inches shorter than Sap's but does have a standing reach 2.5" longer. Think he's still in the 15-25 range.

It may have somehow technically measured out that way, but I cannot fathom how that makes sense. Less height + less wingspan = MORE standing reach???

I don't understand how these things work sometimes. Shoulder width?

Some dudes have really big hands, some really big shoulders, some just have really long arms.

Yeah likely a combo of shoulder width and arm length. You see that sometimes. Take Singleton for example. Taller than Hamilton, Harris and Honeycutt and with a much longer WS but shorter standing reach than all three.

Sap has a broader frame, but shorter arms than Faried as evident in the standing reach.

I is Irving's number really without shoes? He was listed at 6'2" in college. If he is 6'1.75" without shoe then he 6'3" or 6'4" with them. College teams don't usually undersell heights.

He's a freshman. He probably grew in the last year....or found bigger shoes.

Being 6' 2" without shoes wouldn't have anything to do with his shoes. So either he grew significantly, or they measured him without shoes last year.
 
i think it is funny to look at neck size. some of these players that are very tall but 6" is their neck make me laugh ala Anthony Randolph
