I can palm it easily. Probably from 9th or 10th grade onward (finally stopped growing in the 9th grade after a crazy 8th grade growth spurt)



Just measured - stretched my left hand out and it comes in between 9.5 - 9.75. And oddly enough, when I measured my other hand it was a lower number - roughly 9. That explains why I've always had an easier time palming a basketball with my left hand.

So much wider than my hand! No wonder I can barely palm the ball.
 
''If I had to guess, my hand is probably 7.75 long and 10'' wide. Don't have a measuring tape though.
 
According to DX though, Gobert's hand width was 10''.

Really want to get a hold of a measuring tape.

Was wondering who had the biggest hands in the NBA. This article mentions both past & present players (it appears they only list stars and omit scrubs) - was really surprised MJ is at number two:

Interesting to see at the bottom that Giannis is rumored to have 15" hands. See the link provided:

My hand is 8 inches long and 8 inches wide
I can barely palm a bball for a few seconds
