Man I wish we could put Cam in that group :(

Can we put the lesser twin in there though?

Here is the list of vert cheaters.... good news is standing reach is likely bigger but you need to shave a bit off the vert.

Weird to me that Edey would be on that list. Seems like standing reach would be way more important for his position. Especially since we already know he cant jump. I dont really care if a dude that big can jump or not. I dont see him winning any dunk contests anytime soon but a great standing reach would bode well for blocking shots.

Yeah IDK… he’d have the most ability for a differential there since he has more body. I knew a guy that was 6-11 and he’d measure differently earlier in the day than at the end of the night because of gravity… so was 7 foot in the morning and 6-11 at night. I’m not sure he plays in the nba either way… if he does it will be as a Boban bit player most likely.

His standing reach is going to be massive regardless if he flubbed it or not. A guy his size putting up a 30'" vert opposed to a 27" is significantly more eye catching and addresses the main concern around Edey.
 
Will be fun to watch Amari Bailey. I’m still very high on him and would consider him a good pick at 28. I do not buy him as a big scorer, but more as a two way connective piece. Love his athleticism, defense, and competitiveness. I especially like him with Will Hardy who can help him improve his guard skills.
