Exum's Highlights from last night #6

How easily can you palm the ball? I baaaarely can.

Really? I doubt my hand is 8.5'' and I can palm the ball fairly easily.I have a huge thumb though.

 

[Siro]

How wide is your hand though?

Think width is the length between your hand outstretched from pinky to thumb.

8.6"

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)

Think width is the length between your hand outstretched from pinky to thumb.

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.

Should we change the title of this thread to "How big is your hand?"

So much wider than my hand! No wonder I can barely palm the ball.

I just measured mine at 9.5".

 

[spycam1]

Wait, we were measuring hand size?

My bad.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

''If I had to guess, my hand is probably 7.75 long and 10'' wide. Don't have a measuring tape though.

 

[spycam1]

Could probs palm the ball with my **** tbh

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

According to DX though, Gobert's hand width was 10''.

Really want to get a hold of a measuring tape.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I got a freakishly long thumb though.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Like my thumb could easily be mistaken for an Asian man's lower half appendage.

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

With such similar hand measurements, it's hard to believe we never hooked up.

y'all were pretty close that one time.

 

[Doublea]

I have small hands.

Another promising game.. he's really stepping up his effort and it helps to have Hayward there as another solid ball handler to take pressure off of him.

One other striking thing about this video is that kanter had some decent passing on a couple plays.
