6'9 listed Tyler Cavanaugh with Kevin Durant/Watanabe Click Here

Watanabe looks over 6'8 there.

Warren said on 17/Sep/23
Ok I'd buy 6'8"/203 cm barefoot for him but where is the whole shot of that photo?

189.5cm/Age 15 said on 16/Sep/23
@Warren
Yuta is standing decently straight in that photo. I would say he’s a little bit above 2m in reality or at 2m since he’s listed 6’8” now.

Warren said on 15/Sep/23
I'd say Yuta is 205-206 cm range barefoot. The picture that you posted is not standing straight.

anata said on 11/Sep/23
Hey everybody, I was just wanting to ask what height you guys think Yuta Watanabe is, he was recently on the nets with both Durant and Simmons.

Thanks

207
1cm shorter than ad

Canson said on 8/May/23
@Alex: that’s probably about right. Maybe 6’10 3/8 and 6’9 3/8”

Alex Schoenberger said on 3/May/23
I believe Kevin is around 6 10.5 in morning and drops go 6 ft 9.5 , I legit can’t see you not listing him any less then 6ft 9 3/4 cause if 6 ft 9.5 is low that’s not how you judge height we should go lunch time height a few hours of bed avg which if you wake up 6 10.5 your 6ft 10!

Samuel Oluwashemire said on 21/Apr/23
@viper That was funny people started calling him 6'7 - 6'8. I responded to a lot of comments telling them that it is Kevin who is not 7 ft. What do you think is Calvin's actual height? He was listed as 6'5 239 lbs at his combine.

Canson said on 19/Apr/23
@Viper: there’s a chance that Megatron is as low as 6’4.5 or 6’4 5/8”. 6’5 was his combine measurement.

viper said on 17/Apr/23
Calvin only looks 6-4 with him.

It's funny seeing people in the comments saying he must be 6-7-6-8

Samuel Oluwashemire said on 14/Apr/23
Calvin Johnson (Megatron) measured in at 6'5 at the 2007 NFL Combine. Calvin Johnson beside KD:

Correcting myself what I said.
Probably worst cace for KD is 206cm and best case for AD is 207.6cm, sorry but fractionally he may isn't full of 208cm before bed

Warren said on 13/Oct/22
Maybe KD is 206cm worst case and AD is 208cm best case in my opinion. But AD's small head with thicker hair makes them look more height difference in the photo. Maybe the shoe height difference is including too

Duhon said on 13/Oct/22
Kevin Durant's body does actually have the proportions of a 7 footer (especially his wingspan) aside from his neck which is almost stumpy which drops him down in height. You can see that evidently in this photo Click Here

@Canson
KD Measured 6'9.5" in 2019 so why downgrade him? He looks taller than 6'9.5" in many pictures as well, as far as I can see.
@Warren
I've seen various pictures where KD doesn't look at al shorter than AD, and Rob has AD listed at 6'10", so that's what I'm going to go with.

AD measured 6’9.75” not 6’10”. As for KD I listed 6’9.25-.5 range because we don’t know how early the 6’9.5 was. I reckon that if he falls below the mark that it’s only to maybe 6’9 3/8”. Davis is taller than he is like Ice and Warren said but it’s max 1 cm if not just 1/4”. Aldridge only measured 6’10 when he was drafted and May still be that although he does look taller than Duncan so maybe he gained a fraction but he’s not 6’11”.

186cm/Age 14 said on 12/Oct/22
@IceCold1
I just mentioned that in various pictures he does not look shorter than Anthony Davis. I can’t really tell even in the picture you attached whether or not it’s just AD’s hair that makes him look taller. I agree that Durant probably isn’t 6’10” tho. However, he isn’t under 6’9.5”.
@Warren
Yeah, he really does. Honestly should’ve been a 7 footer lol. Looks massive on the court due to his skinny frame and long arms. People guess me 6’3” all the time for that reason. And also because of inflation but all the same, the illusion is there.

Warren said on 11/Oct/22
@186cm/Age 14
KD has very long proportions. Small head, higher shoulders, long limbs, narrow shoulders for his height.
That's what he looks taller than he really is in illusion. I can buy 208cm for AD but not KD

Click Here

IceCold1 said on 11/Oct/22
@186cm/Age 14: You're talking bull*hit out of your mouth. AD is clearly taller than KD. Click Here. Measured 6'9.75 Andre Drummond is also slightly taller KD. KD is no taller than Dwight Howard in the pics Click Here. LaMarcus Aldridge is taller than all of those guys, like Canson pointed. The End

Canson said on 8/Oct/22
@Warren: Yea KD is at most 6’9.5” maybe 6’9.25-.5”. Davis May be 6’9.75 but that’s the most he is. The problem is that LaMarcus Aldridge measured 6’10 and is taller than all of those guys including Drummond, Monroe, Boogie, and those guys. Then again he also looked taller than Duncan so maybe he grew since he was drafted

Warren said on 8/Oct/22
KD is shorter than AD, so he isn't taller than 208cm and AD is 6'9.75"

186cm/Age 14 said on 3/Oct/22
One of the most prolific and unguardable scorers of all time, I believe KD is slightly above 208cm.

Canson said on 21/Sep/22
@Editor Rob: it looks like cousins was an early morning measurement as well. Notice where it says the players measured in 2009 that were measured in 2010 got similar measurements? One player did drop 1/4” though. It was Luke Hargondy. But a guy cousins’s size will easily drop half inch between the 1 hour out of bed and evening. I wonder if maybe he was 6’9.5 early morning and 6’9 flat at his afternoon/evening back then and maybe he gained a small fraction or if he’s still the same today?

Click Here

Canson said on 19/Sep/22
KD is a solid 6’9.5 since he measured that. He may even be 6’9 3/8 since DeAndre Jordan seemed a CM taller

Boogie may be 6’9 1/8-1/4” if KD is 6’9.5 or 6’9 flat

Wingspanpro said on 16/Sep/22
The photo with kd and boogie is potoshoped.
But in other pictures they look close to same height.
Kd 6'9.5-6'9.75
Boogie 6'9.25-6'9.5

Canson said on 14/Sep/22
@Editor Rob: I’d prob have said 1/2” just because of the head tilt but 1 cm is possible. Maybe Durant falls under 6’9.5 by a hair and Cousins probably dips to 6’9” flat. Probably 6’9 flat since his was 2010 which was early morning

Canson said on 13/Sep/22
@Editor Rob: how much difference would you estimate between Durant and Cousins? Cousins has his head tilted up but it looks like Durant has maybe 1/2” or 2 cm. I would’ve thought from the pic that Durant is the 6’9.5 he measured maybe a mm or so over the mark is possible and Cousins 6’9 flat (6’9.5 pre draft measurement early morning). It’s likely that these may be their lows. Not sure.

korden said on 14/Aug/22
In my opinion, KD is 6’9” and 3/8 to 1/2, AD is 6’9” and 7/8. Bron is 6’7” and 1/8

Robbe said on 4/Aug/22
Satnam is nowhere near 7'4. He is several inches shorter than 7'4 Sim Bhullar Click Here

Kevin appears pretty much as he should next to Satnam there.

Kevin Durant is 6'10 in the morning out of bed with flip flops on

He can be 6'11 flat with shoes in morning easily

I have seen Kevin stand with Giannis back in 2018 and he looks the same height, possibly a tiny fraction smaller, 1/2 inch shorter give or take.

Leopard said on 16/Jul/22
6'9.5 measure but looks the same as davis 6'9.75 for both?

Canson said on 4/Jul/22
@Shane: the later years appear to be mixed. Some days are morning other afternoon. An example is Bam Adebayo

I can almost buy the 6’8.75 being his low. Worst case maybe he dips to 6’8.5” He measured 6’9 flat at Kentucky

Shane Gray@ said on 3/Jul/22
@Canson I think they pretty much all early morning in recent years

6’10

Warren said on 16/Jun/22
Thanks for answering my question in detail Canson. Me same I'd go he's 6'9.3" at low too.
I wouldn't say he grew an inch since draft, but 0.4-0.6 inches grow isn't impossible for him imho, which seems not late bloomer, though

Canson said on 12/Jun/22
@Warren: it all depends on the year. 2009 said they were early morning and the video with Blake Griffin indicated within the first hour. Others have been in the afternoon. Durant’s was not a pre draft but I’m not sure what time he was measured. I will say that I don’t think he’s far below 6’9.5”. Maybe 6’9 3/8 at a low

Warren said on 11/Jun/22
Do you guys think the NBA's draft measurements are morning measurements like after waked up 2-3 hours?

Duhon said on 10/Jun/22
@J-Dog Kevin Durant has a 7'5" wingspan he has arguably the limb proportions of a 7 footer but he has a proportionally short neck you can Click Here if he had a Chris Bosh like neck he'd be close to hitting the 7' mark.

Canson said on 10/Jun/22
@J-Dog: I wonder if KD grew since he was drafted or if he just asked them to round down from 6’9.5 to 6’9”. He did look a couple inches shorter than Greg Oden imho but now he looks taller than 6’9 or 6’8.75ish guys

J-Dog said on 8/Jun/22
It's odd how intent so many people are in making Durant taller than he actually is. "Durant is 7'! He just rounds down." So odd considering people on average downrate everyone and anyone. He's not 7'. Gezz. 🤣

Canson said on 4/Jun/22
@Wyatt: that’s what he actually measured in 2019. To be fair, if he’s going to use Steph Curry’s measurement in the morning, using Durant’s actual measurement is valid

Wyatt Paul said on 4/Jun/22
Bruh. Aren't you supposed to estimate his height??? Likke you do with other celeb instead of just listing out what he says. Bruh the guy said he was 6'11, 6'9 before. You're not going to know.............. He recently got measured at 6'10. dumbass

Canson said on 17/Apr/22
@Joe: it’s debatable but maybe by 1/4”

Joec-192.5cm said on 15/Apr/22
Wonder if he'd be taller than a peak Kevin Nash

Kxbs said on 3/Apr/22
Proper listing

Canson said on 26/Mar/22
@Mike O: he didn’t grow 1.5” but he may have grown .5”. Possible he was 6’9.5 like he is now when he was drafted and that they rounded down which is rare. But he measured 6’9.5 in 2019 and doesn’t quite look 6’10 next to Anthony Davis etc who is 6’9.75”. To be fair, a 6’9.5 guy in basketball sneaks will hit 6’10.75 and 6’9.5 is probably near or at his afternoon/evening height so I can see how he pulls off looking 6’10”.

Mike O said on 22/Mar/22
I've seen him coming into the locker room from about 50 feet away at a game several years ago. He's enormously tall. He's a solid 6'10" barefoot. Not 7', not 6'9" or even 6'8", but 6'10". Much of the difficulty in determining his height is because of his thin frame, incredibly long arms and legs with a relatively normal sized torso and hunched posture. He can just look like so many different heights at different times. Basically, he was probably a weak 6'9" when he first entered the league at 19 (maybe around 6'8" to 6'8.5") and grew a solid inch and a half after that. It's not common but certainly not unheard of for young men at the end of their adolescence to push out another inch or two before they're 21 or 22.

Canson said on 18/Mar/22
@Rvi35: that’s prob near a low for him. Embiid is 6’11.75

Warren said on 18/Mar/22
Average Guess is too high

rvi35 said on 17/Mar/22
kd can look from 6'9 to 6'10. here with 7'0 embiid he looks 6'9 Click Here. With kobe he has looked a good 6'10 at times Click Here Click Here. always looked 2.25-2.75' taller than bron tho.

6'9.5 is a good guess

@Editor Rob: Durant appears more than just 2” taller than Lebron. Looks closer to 6 cm next to LeBron than 5. So if Durant is 6’9.5 which he is, LeBron is max 6’7 1/8 or 6’7.25. That’s your own video with the height chart. Likely that LeBron is wearing footwear other than his own in the olympics as I didn’t see it. He may wear his sneaks when they’re playing in the league as the air max gives more height than other bball sneaks.

@Canaon yea, up to 6'10 1/2" maybe but I'd see that's the most possible imo.

@Shane: I think he loses an inch so prob 6’10.25-.5 range or a full 6’10.5

Canson said on 26/Oct/21
@Shane: I’d say at least 6’10.25 to 6’10.5”

Shane said on 23/Oct/21
@Canson you really have KD at almost 6'11" barefoot out of bed? We usually agree but I feel like that is way overdone. 6'10" I can see or maybe a tiny bit over.

Canson said on 23/Oct/21
@Mori:yea but the combine was virtual in 2020 though. He may have gotten a slip of the tape or measured first thing out of bed. That is believable being it’s at his own house more than likely. I’d say Giddey may be 6’8

mori said on 21/Oct/21
@Canson: Thats weird his draft measurements say he was 6'6" barefoot. Oh well how tall would you say that guy is though because in that photo he doesn't look far of him. Im just curious because a lot of the Australian players generally seem taller than they're listings, Like Josh Giddey is listed at 6'8" but he might be even taller

Canson said on 21/Oct/21
@Mori: Martin is listed 6’5” now

mori said on 19/Oct/21
@Rob: That’s a fair estimate I think he could be a bit more because in that photo with Kenyon Martin Jr (measured 6’6” barefoot) he looks the exact same height maybe a tad bit shorter because his shoulders are lower. Honestly I think he could be up to 6’5” because a lot of Australian teenagers are super tall man they are getting fed something else

Canson said on 18/Oct/21
@Mori: KD likely grew about half inch or near it. He was 6’9 when drafted though being Greg Oden was 6’11 and had 2”

Canson said on 18/Oct/21
@Mori: I think he’d clear 6’10 out of bed. Maybe even 6’10.5-.75. His measurement is near a low. Maybe 6’9 3/8 but I see the argument for this measurement being his afternoon and evening being he edges Boogie Cousins who is 6’9.5 earlier In the day. I have Boogie at 6’9” and KD 6’9.5

tha said on 17/Oct/21
Yo guys how tall do you think this guy is he's listed at 6'6" here are some photos from his IG with NBA players at UCLA: Click Here

I think he looks like 6'5" range because the first photo is with 6'9" Cody Riley who is standing barefoot who's probably like 6'7" range barefoot.
Also with 6'6" Kenyon Martin Jr he looks pretty good 6'5"

Hes also taller than Josh Christopher but maybe footwear is boosting his height a little there. Josh is strong 6'3" range

what do yo guys think?

@Rob what do you think

mori said on 17/Oct/21
@Canson: so wait do you think KD can measure 6'11 out of bed in sneakers?

Because I thought hes more 6'9" 1/2 out of bed

Canson said on 16/Oct/21
@Mori: he’s easily at least 209 out of bed if I had to guess. 206.5-207 is possible for his low but the listed height may fit

Canson said on 15/Oct/21
@Mori: he looks taller next to LeBron however. That looks 2 and change. I can see this being KD’s afternoon height 6’9.5 and LeBron 6’7 or 6’7.25”. PG also looks taller than LeBron

mori said on 14/Oct/21
the tallest KD can be out of bed in the morning on his absolute best best day is probably 207.5 cm. kD never appears to be a full 6'10 barefoot hes always in the 6'9 1/4 - 6'9 3/4 range. KD does have about 2 inches on LeBron and he has about 2 inches on Paul George. But at times it doesnt even look like a full 2 inch difference between KD and George/ LeBron

With LeBron: Click Here

WIth PG: Click Here

Here Paul George looks about 6'9" with KD: Click Here

And here is LeBron with KD again back in 2018 honestly LeBron looks 6'8" here: Click Here

SO moral of the story is next to 6'7-6'8 guys KD can look weak 6'9" but with the right angles he looks close to 6'10 just because of his slender frame exposing him as a taller frame in certain camera angles.

Canson said on 11/Oct/21
@RJT: excellent estimates! Agreed on all. I wonder if LMA grew since he was in the league. He was 6’10 when drafted but he looks taller than all other guys in the 6’9-6’10 range and even looked taller than Tim Duncan when they played together. I wonder if he was a hair over 6-10 and they rounded down for him as the 6’10.5 looks like it’s possibly a low for him. He could pull off looking 6’11 at times lol. I have Kawhi at 6’5.75” but at times he can look the full 6’6” other times 6’5.5”

@Canson
Thanks Replying Canson. How tall do you think when KD at draft(19) before bed was? like just 205cm?
I think he could be grow 1.5-2cm after then. My guess KD at draft was just 205cm and Now is being 206.5-207cm range, and from my eyes KD seems 11cm taller than Draymond and 6cm taller than LeBron.

Kevin Durant 207cm
LeBron James 201cm
Draymond Green 196cm

@Warren: no problem at all and great estimates! I’d say he was a solid 6’9” guy then. 205-206 range or a full 206 perhaps. Today is go with 207 as listed and I would go 201 for LeBron like you have and 196 range for Draymond is definitely accurate

If Durant only measured 6’9.5, then he isn’t 6’9.75 or 207.5 at his lowest

@citizen pictures like that are why the general public thinks Durant is 6'11" or more as they take Magic's 6'9" listing at face value. Even knowing Magic's real height though KD looks near 6'10" in that photo...imagine Tyson Fury in a photo with KD.

Canson said on 23/Sep/21
Bagheera said on 22/Sep/21
KD and AD Identical in height there are dozens of pictures that confirm this both for years said themselves that they try to hide their height, prefers not to be listed above 6-10 so they are not asked to play the five so it makes much more sense to conclude that they are lying about their own height, their height is 208-208.5 and if you so insist then there should be a 207.5 minimum.
As for LeBron no one is trying to compare him to the magic it's nonsense, there are hundreds of pictures that prove that LeBron is 203 cm (especially with players measured 6-7, like Tatum, Carmelo, Montrezl and more) he is measured 6-8.5 which is about 204 cm. he came to the league at the age of 18 (At this age it can still be grown a little) in 201.5 cm Anyone who does not notice that he has grown by about 1.5-2 cm is obviously not looking right.
Minimal estimate :
kd 208
ad 208
lebron 203

You make no sense whatsoever and are biased. Durant is clearly shorter than Giannis by about an inch so it adds up. Davis has a 2.5” difference on LeBron. And both guys are shorter than LaMarcus Aldridge. There you go making excuses about them being taller than they are just to make LeBron 6’8”. 😢

recapa said on 23/Sep/21

maybe kuzma 6-8 measured is afternoon.
morning he is 205-206 cm

By far the most ridiculous but true statement I’ve heard. Yes he is 6’9 out of bed and 6’8 at a low. But the site is based on afternoon heights as has been pointed out before. And in Rob’s case he assumes afternoon and if he listed Kuzma as a celeb, he’d be listed at 6’8”. You mentioning him being 6’9” in the morning is just to justify your propaganda that LeBron is 6’8 when he’s not. So do you believe Dwight Howard is only 6’8” then since you said he’s 6’9 (206)? 😂 😂 obviously he’s at least 6’9” maybe even what he’s listed here. He’s two inches taller than LeBron just about if not a full 2”. You’re so inconsistent and biased that it’s ridiculous. If you think Howard is only 6’8”, no one can take you seriously

Bagheera said on 17/Sep/21
Dwight slightly taller then 6'8 range LeBron (203-204 cm) maybe in 1 inch so 6'9.25/5 looks ok to him (206-207 cm)

Bagheera said on 20/Sep/21
@recapa

dwight 206 clearly
maybe simmons not 206 cm, but 205 look ok

So is Howard 6’9 out of bed or at a low? It sounds like you use out of bed when it’s convenient for you but afternoon when it’s convenient in the other direction? If you estimate at an out of bed height, you won’t be taken seriously because nobody else does that (here on CH or in society).

Q: Are the heights listed with shoes?
A: No. Assume every height as though the celebrity was measured barefoot. This isn't the NBA! I make no claim as to whether any listed height is an evening or early morning one, but technically I think you are better off saying your height based on the time when people get measured on average, which obviously wouldn't be out of bed, but might be about 5 hours after waking. After you've been standing for 5-6 hours you won't shrink much more during the rest of the day compared to how much you shrink in the time period from waking up till lunchtime.
As of November 2017, there are around 5100 Male and 5100 Females listed, with an average peak height of 5ft 10.75 for the Males and 5ft 5 and 1/4 for the Females.

morning he is 205-206 cm

Now you’re making excuses about the measurement time. It says Kuzma measured 6’8” both times. Had I not pointed that out to you, you would insist that it was afternoon. Now I know that we cannot take you seriously. Nobody here goes by morning height. We use afternoon. And I don’t see you asking when LeBron’s 6’7.25 or his alleged 6’8.5 came? I don’t see you asking when Simmons was measured or Dwight Howard. Do you really think Howard was measured in the morning at 6’9? That would make him 6’8 😂 😂 😂 😂 . You said yourself that he is 206cm which implies an afternoon measurement. You’re not even consistent. You can’t inflate Kuzma to a morning measurement just to justify why LeBron is 6’8 which is what you’re doing. So I think this proves it along with the fact that you tried to say that Anthony Davis’s measurement was “incorrect” or somehow manipulated

Again he was listed 6’9 because that is what he measured in shoes. He’s listed 6’10” now because LeBron is listed 6’9”. Do you think he loses 2” in a day?

The standard on this site is an afternoon or lunchtime and Rob has the standard listed here. Second of all if Rob has a measurement for the person he uses it. Sounds like you choked on your own argument now that we pointed out that Kuzma is 6’8 and your lie about him growing is just that so you’re gasping for air. If Kuzma is 6’8 which he is, LeBron is not 6’8”. You are an imbecile

Click Here


Here is his 2019 measurement (it says 6’8) and he would’ve been 24 then so he didn’t grow. The picture of he and LeBron was from 2018 so that proves LeBron is not 6’8

Bagheera said on 22/Sep/21
KD and AD Identical in height there are dozens of pictures that confirm this both for years said themselves that they try to hide their height, prefers not to be listed above 6-10 so they are not asked to play the five so it makes much more sense to conclude that they are lying about their own height, their height is 208-208.5 and if you so insist then there should be a 207.5 minimum.
As for LeBron no one is trying to compare him to the magic it's nonsense, there are hundreds of pictures that prove that LeBron is 203 cm (especially with players measured 6-7, like Tatum, Carmelo, Montrezl and more) he is measured 6-8.5 which is about 204 cm. he came to the league at the age of 18 (At this age it can still be grown a little) in 201.5 cm Anyone who does not notice that he has grown by about 1.5-2 cm is obviously not looking right.
Minimal estimate :
kd 208
ad 208
lebron 203

mori said on 21/Sep/21
TBH is it just me or can KD look 6'8.75 at times?

Miss Sandy Cowell said on 21/Sep/21
Oh dear, Canson! I completely got the wrong end of the stick regarding that one. Kevin Durand is listed as 6ft5.75, so that's probably what I gave him earlier. I have to wait and see.... 😁

Miss Sandy Cowell said on 21/Sep/21
What a busy page this is!

@ Canson - It's such a popular page that I overlooked your reply, so I'm sincerely sorry about that.

Thinking back a few hours, I, too, would have kept Kevin Durand at 6ft5.5. I wrote on his page today, and I'm almost certain that I didn't go over 6ft5. He looks so tall in 'Legion', and it's not many an actor who can look down to Paul Bettany the way Kevin did in that movie!

I hope you're keeping well, Canson. 😉

Kevin gets a jumbo 6ft9.75. 🐘

@Mori; yea but Curry is a morning measurement. He’s more 6’1.5”. See the back to back pic of he and John Wall where Wall is about 1/2” taller. Wall is about an inch shorter than Bradley Beal who is max 6’3”. Wall according to people who have met him (I live right outside of DC in Virginia) they say Wall is about 6’2”. That makes sense though because curry was measured in 2009. Wall in 2010

Click Here

Says in the article that the players sampled from UNC all measured 1/2” or so shorter the previous year being the combine is held in the morning. But Celebheights is based on afternoon or max lunchtime heights. Disregard what the poster below said about the morning as that’s an attempt to justify his poor estimates

My information comes from where everyone's information comes just as you claim that Durant's and Davis' measurements are reliable, so LeBron's should also be reliable according to your method. You simply choose who the height is suitable for and who is not.

No this is totally you Bagheera and you don’t appear to be all that intelligent. You falsified a measurement for Kyle Kuzma. He has only ever measured 6’8” (twice). His listed height (6’9 or 6’10) on a roster is not his barefoot height. He was 6’8” in 2017 and 2019. He didn’t grow at 24 years old (19) or 25 years old (when he entered the 20-21 season). He is still 6’8”. So no you do not get your info from the same source as I do. You are the one who makes up stuff clearly

Canson said on 20/Sep/21
Bagheera said on 19/Sep/21

Maybe about Drymond you are right but about Kuzma it really does not make sense that he is only 203 cm at first measured 6-9 and then 6-8 and then they updated it to 6-10 which I agree is not but it could be that the 3 measurements were made at different times of the day in my opinion Kuzma is not less than 205 cm

Again where do you get your info? Kuzma never measured 6’9”. He measured 6’8 when he was drafted. His 6’9 listing when he first came in was his shoe measurement which is par for the course being everyone else was listed in shoes. So yes the real question is where do you get your info?

It’s clearly not from the same place

I also agree LeBron is not 6-9 flat, but he is no less than 6-8,the range between 6-7.75 to 6-8.25
And why do you go by afternoon measurements? The real height of a person is in the morning. The fact that during the day they shrinks by 2 centimeters is a different story.

Anyway in my opinion minimum height for them :
davis 208 cm
durant 207 cm
kuzma 206 cm
lebron 203 cm
I checked hundreds of photos of LeBron with a variety of players in the range of 200 - 206 cm next to him especially on the GETTY website there are great photos that can be estimated the height
There's no way LeBron is only 201cm, clearly not 6-9 and maybe not 6-8.5 but he's probably in the 6-8 range.
If I have to estimate the minimum height is 202 cm and not a millimeter less. 202-203 cm this is the right range for him and again in my opinion it looks more 203 cm

@Bagheera: you really don’t sound intelligent. So you’re saying that Durant and AD are taller than they are? That’s common sense that they aren’t. When you have three players who were measured and one isn’t as tall as they look next to the other two, that’s the case he is not as tall as he was measured. Why would they purposely under measure AD and Durant but LeBron’s measurement is right? Ok believe what you want. Davis is shorter than 6’10 LaMarcus Aldridge.

And morning height is your true height? No. Do you sleep in a doctor’s office? No. That’s an excuse on your part to justify your bad estimates. So yea if going off out of bed Lebron is 6’8” (not 6’8.5 though). They made him 6’8.5 to list him 6’9 like Magic. Everyone knows that

@Bagheera KD isn't 6'10" barefoot, just look at him with 6'2" Gucci Mane he is only about 7 inches taller. Maybe even 6 1/2 inches at worst. KD 6'9 1/2 or 1/4 for me. He definitely is 6'10" in sneakers tho can go up to 6'10 1/2 in shoes.

@Bagheera: where do you get your info? All of your estimates are over what they’re listed or measured

LeBron throws everything off. If going off afternoon heights he would be 6’7-6’7.5 range (to give it a wide range) I think 6’7.25 like he was when he was drafted. KA188 met him and said that at 188.4 cm that Lebron had a solid 5” on him. That would make him around 201ish. 6’7.25 is fair

KD 6’9.5 is what he measured and looks
AD 6’9.75
Kuzma was measured 6’8 again in 2019 just like he was in 2017. They made him 6’10 last season to keep from lowering Lebron to 6’7 or 6’8”. Kuzma has close to an inch on LeBron
Draymond Green there is no way he’s 6’5.5-6’6. He’s no taller than Rob lists him at 6’5.25. LeBron is about 2” taller than him

Robbie Murphy said on 18/Sep/21
6’9 1/2 is fair

Bagheera said on 18/Sep/21
@recapa, and Lebron measured 6'8.5 barefoot in new nba measurements so? AD measured 6'9.75 but AD measurment seen not fair he clearly 6'10
Also Dwight measured 6'9.75 like AD and clearly shorter then AD
(208 cm) KD maybe 207 cm and LeBron 203

@Bagheera,no he isnt as tall as AD and AD measured at 6ft9 3/4 barefoot.

@Canson: look at this photo from the 2019 ASG Team LeBron group photos, KD looks taller than AD and so does Simmons, lol probably them standing behind a little. Click Here

KD here with 6'9" listed Dzanan Musa who was actually measured 6'8 1/2 barefoot, not sure if i believe that likely morning measurement because he looks strong 6'7" here: Click Here

Also Durant with 6'2" curry back in 2017 has about 7 inches on him but it doesnt loook like a 7 1/2 inch difference: Click Here

@Mori: interesting. I’ve always had KAT taller

my opinion on his height compared to boogie: i believe that boogie is 205.5 and kd is 206.5 while AD is 207.5.

mori said on 11/Sep/21
@Canson: I’ve seen KD many times in LA, closest I’ve been to him was at the 2k20 launch party and he was taller than PG and KAT. In person he is a lot taller man and I was surprised that he was taller than Towns, seriously he’s tall!

AD was at the event too and he was around KD’s height maybe taller idk didn’t really see him

I saw PG with Dave East, Dwade, KAT. He looked listed with all of them. But with Ben Simmons, Paul looked taller than 6’7 1/2.

Kinda crazy how many people in the twitter comments are saying 6'11 and 7'1. They must think Anthony Davis is 6'11.5 to 7'1.5

Canson said on 19/Aug/21
@Mori: I don’t know. I see him losing an inch throughout the day. Maybe 6’10.25-.5 out of bed and 6’9.25-.5 afternoon. He has about a CM maybe half inch on Cousins but then again Cousins looked and inch shorter than AD who’s 6’9.75 so maybe he’s not the full 6’9 afternoon height? I always suspected he was exactly 6’9” though

mori said on 18/Aug/21
lol kd probably gets sick and tired of ppl asking about his height I don’t blame him claiming 6’11-7” 😂. If that’s what the people want to hear then so be it then they’ll shutup lol.

KD is 6’9 1/2 like he mentioned. 6’11 max in shoes out of bed but very weak 6’11”

Canson said on 7/Aug/21
@Warren: it’s possible he’s nearer 207 before bed. Him growing a small fraction at 19 isn’t impossible. Now if someone said an inch or two then no. But he edges solid 6’9” guys by a hair. Boogie Cousins comes time mind. Boogie measured 6’9.5 at the combine but likely that he’s just a solid 205.7 at best at bed time and that KD is 206-207 range. I’d say 6’9 3/8” is worst case

Warren said on 7/Aug/21
Kevin Durant is 206cm before in bed.
Just his proportions higher shoulders and long arms, small head making him look taller than he really is.

Canson said on 1/Aug/21
I don’t get people that argue that someone’s taller than they’re measured. I could see the opposite only based on time of the day or exaggeration but it’s less likely for someone to be under measured in an athletic setting

@RJT: to make him sound more impressive with his skill set. Same reason they do it for Lebron. I do agree with you that the 6’9.5 is likely close to a low. Wouldn’t surprise me if Draymond is 6’5 1/8 to be honest. But oddly enough he looks taller than Klay there. Maybe they were right when Klay got the 6’5 listing initially before last season. They only made him 6’6 to keep up with Draymond. I’d bet they’re very similar in height. I don’t see Klay being taller than him as I once did.

So my barefoot height is 6'9 1/2"[207 cm] with no shoes.

@Robbe: depends. If that is an afternoon height then yes if it’s a morning height, he’s a weak 7 footer. Serge is definitely near 6’10 if not on the money. I’d say he’s somewhat taller than Durant now if he already wasn’t. Somewhat means 1/4-1/2” more than likely

@Canson, that's Jakob Pöltl, who has been measured 7'1 with shoes, and 7'0.25 without shoes. So he is actually a strong 7 footer. To me that looks no less than 2in difference. What do you say, Rob?

@Canson: there is some weird stuff going on with the NBA heights. It all started with the new barefoot policy from the NBA last season, which wasn't enforced, but has caused changes, inconsistency and more confusion, not less. Before, we knew that 95% of nba heights were roughly shoe heights, so it was easy to figure out roughly how tall people were (even without the combine data). Now we supposedly have barefoot heights, but still have quite a few shoe heights, some teams who aren't really following those guidelines and many others wear they just knocked an inch off of guys who were overlisted by two inches before. I'd like to propose a solution for the NBA heading into next season: they said this was done for Vegas and gambling (which makes no sense). But going by that, send official barefoot rosters to the betting sites. They can share them with whoever needs them. And then let teams go back to listing players as they wish. The players hate the policy, for the most part, and it's just a mess. I'm seeing now that some teams released preseason rosters that were different than regular season, then we have regular season rosters that don't match between nba.com and ESPN etc, and then we have some teams that even released preseason measurements online (email me at therealshanegray@gmail.com for the details) and then their regular season roster has some guys listed an inch and a half above those measurements. It is all more confusing than it ever was before. From one team to the next, it varies. Lakers changed a bunch of heights this year. Pelicans, etc. Crazy.

Canson said on 25/Jan/21
@Editor Rob: I wonder if Green is overlisted (6’7.75 pre draft). Wonder if he’s not really 6’7” flat afternoon height.

I'd be careful to use pics of Durant from his rookie year as an example of his current height. I do believe he's one of the few NBA players who did grow from his draft day measurement.

Canson said on 19/Jan/21
@JTM: Hubie Brown is also famous for doing that. Then Dan Patrick calls him 7’ at least and then Nick Wright 7’1”. The guy is 6’9.5” at best lol

Jtm said on 19/Jan/21
Marv Albert stated 7’0 in bucks nets game lol

Shane Gray said on 15/Jan/21
@Robbe that was just a small part of the argument. One of many reasons and I didnt list them all.

@Canson meh, WWE billings have gotten better in the last few years (most of the way overbilled ones have been around for 10+ years)

Canson said on 11/Jan/21
@Robbe and Shane: maybe it’s for “entertainment purposes” 😂 😂
I bet the NBA’s listings will resemble pro wrestling in a few years lol

Canson said on 10/Jan/21
@Shane: for consistency purposes I agree. They should keep it the way it was. I can’t blame the teams and players either because the NBA started that trend some 40 or more years ago (Magic actually came out in 1979 lol). You had some in the 70s that were such as Dennis Johnson who admitted he wasn’t 6’4”. I saw Wall at 6’4 on ESPN but NBA.com he’s 6’3”. Then on NBA.com, Dwight Howard is listed at his “amended 6’10” from last season but ESPN he’s actually down to 6’9” now. But in Howard’s defense, he claimed 6’9” as his true height despite being listed 6’11 through the 2019 season and he was drafted in 04. I wonder if Howard was simply listed the same height as Anthony Davis by the Lakers or was he just measured very early in the morning. It seems inconsistent as Davis’s height seems like a low for him. Funny thing is I predicted that’s what he would measure as an afternoon height when he was measured by Jimmy Kimmel on TV at 6’11” in shoes. It adds up as Davis measured 6’9.25 ad a rookie but it was likely early morning. I think he was shorter than Durant when he came in but maybe now he’s slightly taller so makes since he would’ve been 6’8.75 as a rookie (afternoon height) and 6’9.75 now. It shows that Cousins was morning measured at 6’9.5 being he’s shorter. More than likely 6’9”. Then with the Sixers, I’m not sure what happened last year with their measurements. Joel Embiid looks like a low. Ben Simmons looks like a shoe measurement. Not sure if 6’8.25 would be his low but it wouldn’t surprise me if it isn’t or is really. To be honest I don’t see less than 6’8” ish but don’t see any higher either. Then Al Horford. Horford measured 6’8.75 as a rookie and 6’9.25 this season. His is likely accurate but just early morning. I don’t see him having grown and they kept him at 6’9 with OKC so I doubt he’s really taller than that. He’d likely have gotten listed 6’10” if he were as that would be his morning height

@Canson I despise the NBA pressuring teams to list players as NBA demands. Weve had shoes heights for 40 years. I hate it. I only now cheer for the handful of teams still listing their players in shoes. I admire them for doing as they wish. The players hated the new policy. Fyi, last I checked all the rosters most rookies were being listed shoe heights for almost every team. So perhaps nba didnt emphasize this policy this year and teams will list new players the old way again. Harder to do that for the players they already certified this year. Last I checked wall was still listed 6'4" on some of the Rockets rosters on some sites. Do I believe shoe heights are the true heights of our body? Of course not. But this messes up historical comparisons to over a generation of players going back to the 80s. They did shoes too long for this to make since. They play in shoes and I see no issue with continuing that tradition? Especially when any real fans realized they were shoe heights and the players real heighr were usually one to two inches lower.

Canson said on 8/Jan/21
@Robbe and Recapa: I’ve been on this site for over 5 years now and for the life of me, I never get why and when people assume or want a celeb to be taller than they’re measured. John Wall when he played in the DC Area was not more than about 6’2” barefoot yet people swore up and down he was 6’4 and that Bradley Beal was 6’5 as both were listed. Wall measured 6’2.75 early morning. Ironically, Beal was measured 6’3.25 in 2012 and has been listed 6’3” since they officially measured him in 2019 and he is taller than Wall. But I guess taller is better for their careers and it must surely improve play somehow? even though Wall is off to a great start in Houston this season only being listed 6’3” now; and Beal has had the best season plus of his career going back to the beginning of the 2019-20 season only being listed 6’3 since then. Strange how things work, huh?

Sure measurements can be off at times maybe by 1/4” or so but Could that person measure lower than they did being the site standard is afternoon or at best lunchtime height which for most is 1/8” above their afternoon or at best maybe 1/8-1/4” in some cases? That’s the only real debate. I’ve seen too many times here where someone says “well the combine measurement is official” regardless of the fact that it’s documented to be(in most cases) early morning esp in the NFL every year and NBA most years, but that listing is used for comparison purposes against another measured athlete (who could’ve been measured at their afternoon height) but the latter is automatically 1/2” taller than listed because of the morning measurement of the former. And don’t even get me started on the validity of the measurement such as did it really take place or did it occur in shoes? Strange that JJ Redick showed 6’4 barefoot 6’4.75 in shoes at the combine and essentially the same size as D Wade when he was drafted and was penciled in at 6’3 last season after the official measurement and its not unfathomable that he’s less than 6’3” being a legit 6’3 would measure 6’3 3/8 (which gets rounded to 1/2 in the NBA and rounded again to 6’4) or even the full 1/2” after being awake an hour or two. There are exceptions as I doubt Brandon Ingram is less than 6’7”.

Back Kevin Durant, who’s avg guess is over 6’10, he only measured 6’9.5 and barely looks taller than DeMarcus Cousins does next to Draymond Green. He was listed 6’9.25 then 6’9.5 then .75 for a few days then back to 6’9.5 after his actual listing came out. Yet he looks shorter than 6’9.75 DeAndre Jordan and 6’9.75 Anthony Davis. More than 1/4. It’s also worth noting that Dwight Howard measured 6’9.75 last year (presumably a morning measurement being he’s shorter than Davis) and was listed 6’10” but is now only listed 6’9” on ESPN’s website. Howard himself claimed 6’9 before last season. Durant I doubt is much taller if at all. And you see it all the time with Charles Barkley, Kobe Bryant or any other measured athlete who got measured around their afternoon height or with Dwayne Wade previously when he was listed at his alleged measured height, they’d keep him at that even though it was proven not to be his actual height and inflate a legitimately measured athlete. Wade is about 6’3 and always has been. But Wade’s 6’3.75 measurement previously before anyone took the time to actually figure it all out that he was never that tall was good enough to be considered or claim 6’4” despite being much closer to 6’3 (wouldn’t surprise me if he falls under by a tiny hair) yet Charles Barkley rounding down to 6’4 or being rounded down to 6’4 being he himself usually claims 6’5, is downplaying his height even though he’s been described 6’4.5 for most of his career and measured 6’4 5/8”. Or other football players like Tim Tebow who never looked their measured heights, instead inflating the legit measured ones. It’s never that guys like that aren’t as tall as advertised. Or it’s that someone got measured “at night” (we all know afternoon and evening don’t vary from one another unless under extreme conditions which is extremely rare) or was he “properly measured”? Another example is Conan O’Brien. He had yet to be officially measured on record and people have pushed his height to as high as 6’4 1/2 or even 6’5 just because he claimed to be a little over 6’4 so by deduction they push Barkley or Kobe to 6’5.25 and 6’5.5 respectively instead of taking the time to actually analyze what the real issue is.

KD never look 6'10.5 range, he is more than just 0.5in shorter than 6'11 Marc Gasol.

No way he’s 6’9. KD is 6’11, 6’10.5 at an absolute low.

recapa said on 24/Dec/20
yeah its kinda difficult to identify the taller of the 2.as for marc and pau i agree its not even a full inch between them like 6ft11 flat for mark and maybe 6ft11.75 to pau or 6ft11.5 for pau.

Robbe said on 24/Dec/20
I have posted this pic earlier where Ibaka looks taller than Durant.

Click Here

Both guys are probably within 0.5in. I would still put my money on Ibaka.

P.S. Marc Gasol is 6'11 barefoot, and 7ft in shoes. He is max an inch shorter than a legit 7ft barefoot Pau Gasol. Ibaka's 7ft listing is a bit mystery, maybe he was tiptoeing, or was measured with extra thick shoes.

recapa said on 23/Dec/20
about ibaka i am still convinced that he is theClick Here the shorter of the 2 or at best the same height as KD Click Here , 6ft9 3/8 for kd and 6ft9 for ibaka.also i have a theory about his 7ft listing i think that the listing was supposed to be given to 6ft11 gasol bc thats what would gasol measure in shoes and 6ft9 ibaka measures around 6ft11 or close to it and rounds up.

He could probably be brought down to 6’9 3/8” being he’s slightly (but noticeably) shorter than Anthony Davis who measured 6’9.75. I still don’t see why Davis was listed 1/4” taller than he measured

Canson said on 17/Dec/20

@Junior: maybe I’m wrong but I saw both next to Kareem and they’re similar. If anything maybe Shaqs footwear gave him the advantage or maybe he’s got 1/2”. Bynum also was listed at 7’1” previously at times. Gasol didn’t get a 7’1” listing until this season (the same way Lebron got his 6’9” and Simmons 6’10”)

Canson said on 23/Oct/20
@Junior: Bynum looked as tall as Shaq but Gasol didn’t

Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 21/Oct/20
@Canson @Robbe

Bynum is closer to camera in both picture. I did go with both flat 7'0 or 6'11 3/4 at worst. I remember Shaq use to look about 1/2" on both of them but Shaq footwear was legit thicker at least by a fraction.

recapa said on 19/Oct/20
KD is closer to 206cm than 207cm but close enough

Canson said on 18/Oct/20
@Robbe: Bynum looks taller in both imho. Even in the one outside he doesn’t seem to be standing as well. I agree it probably isn’t much but I could see Bynum being maybe 1/2” taller based on all the pics I posted before. But some food for thought for me at least, Marc is only listed 6’11 now so he could potentially dip below. If that’s morning 6’11.25 let’s say. I wonder how tall Dirk is. That looks 1.5” or 1.25 between them to me. Pau to me is max 7’0. I can see RJT’s argument at times for a weak 7’0” esp being he was only listed 7’ when drafted

Robbe said on 14/Oct/20
It's hard to tell which one is taller, Pau or Bynum. Sometimes Pau looks taller, sometimes Bynum.

They might be both 7ft.

Canson said on 11/Oct/20
@RJT: 6’11.5 for Gasol is within reason. He also was shorter than 7’0” Andrew Bynum

Canson said on 11/Oct/20
@RJT: Stoudemire has his head tilted a bit but I’d suspect Durant to be taller in any event. Stoudemire only measured 6’8.5 however. I’d I had to guess if he grew in his career, I’d go max 6’8.75”. I saw how he stacked up next to 6’6-6’6.25 Carmelo Anthony

recapa said on 8/Oct/20
@RTJ barely man,pau has always stroke me as one of the most legit 7 footers while i can see his brother marc in the 6;11 range since he always appeared about half an inch shorter

@Editor Rob

KD is lil bit taller than 6'9 Stoudemire, and visibly shorter than 6'11 range guys Duncan & Dirk

6'9.5" looks correct

Gasol #16 is also 6'11 range, maybe 6'11.5" at most not 7footer since he looks only marginally taller than Dirk.

Canson said on 4/Oct/20
@Fried Chicken: he may have grown a small fraction too or asked them to round down to 6’9” flat

Could he have been slouching during the 2007 measurment

Robbe said on 2/Oct/20
Kevin here with Perry Jones, Enes Kanter, Steven Adams, and Serge Ibaka. Kevin appears shortest of them all. Steven Adams (#12) has measured 6'10.75 barefoot).

Click Here

Some people have guessed KD close to 7ft barefoot, which is quite hilarious. Well, he can look around 7ft when he is among 6'10 guys who are listed at 7ft lol.

Canson said on 17/Aug/20
@Height: he probably is approaching that mark today maybe 235 at worst but being a bit over 6’9” that’s not as surprising if he did weigh that much. but when he came in the league he looked a bit thinner. That’s a good observation though about the midsection. But putting it into perspective he’s probably 2+ inches taller than a 6’7” Lebron James and Lebron looks much bigger only being maybe 10 lbs heavier. I have Lebron around 250 at most. I’ve never believed he was 260 or 270. Maybe something like mid 250s in Miami at one stage but when he got back to Cleveland he looked around 245.

Canson said on 17/Aug/20
@Editor Rob: I also wonder if Durant slouches at times.

Height said on 16/Aug/20
240 lbs is plausible as he has always had extra weight around the rib cage and belly areas.

James roy said on 12/Aug/20
Hey rob why are people so crazy about KD being taller than he actually is and always call KD a prankster for claiming 6'9?
Editor Rob
He has passed for 6ft 10 range before, so I can see why people would call out his 6ft 9 low.

@Editor Rob: he can pass for 6’10 easily but if you compare him to Anthony Davis or Andre Drummond or any of those cats, he isn’t over 6’9” range. LaMarcus Aldridge measured 6’10” flat and looks taller than all of them. But I can believe him possibly being 6’10” and a bit today perhaps.

Click Here

By the way, how close do you say Anthony Davis and Durant are? That 1/4” is more believable in that pic. Or maybe Durant is 6’9 3/8” afternoon and Davis was at his afternoon when he got measured 6’9.75”. Andre Drummond was likely a morning measurement too.

@Junior: I think the previous listing is more accurate 6’9.25”. But I wouldn’t have thought that if Anthony Davis hadn’t measured 6’9.75”. Neither guy wants to be taller than they are

Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 21/Jun/20
Durant is now given by the NBA official at 6'10, 240 lbs. I buy his 6'9 1/2 from Rob listing a lowest but weight at 240 lbs seem BS, i just can't see him anything over 220 if is highest, he use to be listed 6'9 & 220 from the past i guess his real weight around 212-215 then he might gain a little more weight from recent years did look 220 from past NBA listing but anything above 223 is hard to believe. He literally always look like the most skinny guy in the court with every teammates.

Jean214 said on 14/Mar/20
Probably just 6'9.5

Canson said on 8/Mar/20
@Robbe: yea the biggest variable is there is no consistency. We don’t know what time of the day the measurements took place and some guys are still listed at previous listings when they aren’t. Then a couple like Ben Simmons and Lebron etc grew an inch. Kawhi Leonard, James Harden, Harrison Barnes and all of Sacramento. I would really believe that Davis was an afternoon measurement as he claimed to grow an inch since being drafted and admitted he didn’t want to be listed at 6’11” on more than one occasion. Now we can’t always take claims at face value but seeing as how he does look 2-3 inches taller than Lebron and actually appears taller than Dwight Howard during the game along with what he said which seemed honest, I could buy him growing an inch. It’s possible that his 6’9.25 pre draft equated to a 6’8.75 afternoon measurement in 2012. I remember AD also said that KD was taller than him at one point and this was likely when he was drafted. To add to that, he was measured on Jimmy Kimmel’s show, but that appeared to be a quick and dirty (Sloppy). Davis has long hair and it wasn’t easy to tell from the camera angle if it was the full 6’11” with shoes or maybe a hair under. I know that when that video was first posted here, I pointed out to Rob that I believed 6’9.75 to be his actual height due to the shoe measurement and it turns out that it is what he measured this season. But that makes it more confusing being it’s easier to believe Howard’s pre draft 6’9” measurement more so than his training camp measurement this past October. If he did grow, it’s likely to about what Kevin Durant is. And I say more confusing because a few players appear to have received afternoon measurements whereas the majority appear to have received morning measurements. KD and AD are two guys who would likely prefer to use a lower measurement than a higher one but a clear example of a person who I believed to receive an afternoon measurement in 2007 was Al Horford at 6’8.75 but 6’9.25 is his year in the morning. Another was Amare Stoudemire who was 6’8.5 and then got 6’9.25 (I think) in the morning before practice. Then you have someone like Austin Rivers or maybe JJ Redick. Rivers received 6’3.5 when drafted but is listed 6’3 now and Redick 6’4 now listed 6’3. Now that could be that the measurements weren’t accurate when they were drafted but in some cases prior to 2009 players got measured in the afternoon and measured at those heights legitimately without the benefit of laying down prior to the measurement. Another example is Brandon Ingram. It’s very hard to see him measuring at under 6’7” and most of us believed him to be closer to 6’8” until that came out. I could still see 6’7” and some change but he surely is an afternoon solid 6’7” guy at absolute worst. He was only slightly shorter than Kuzma and even looked taller on occasion and he always towered over Lonzo Ball. Then some guys were left at their previous listings and they certainly didn’t grow. Others such as Jordan Clarkson, Jimmy Butler, DeAngelo Russell, DeMar Derozan etc just lost one inch from their previous listing when all four are still over listed by an inch just according to their Morning pre draft measurements. They should be Listed 6’3, 6’6, 6’3, 6’5 even using morning measurements being they round 1/2” or above up. Just using the eye test I would say:

AD 6’9.75
KD 6’9.25-.5
Drummond 6’9.25

That is further complicated when you see the expanded version of picture you posted that includes LaMarcus Aldridge who measured 6’10” which was likely an afternoon measurement In 2007. LA can look over 6’10” to tell you the truth.

Robbe said on 29/Feb/20
Yeah, KD here with 6'10 listed Anthony Davis, and 6'9.75 listed Andre Drummond.

KD is visible shortest of them, so he is not 6'10.

Canson said on 27/Feb/20
@Robbe: maybe 2.5”. I wonder if Durant possibly comes down to 6’9.25 like you provided in that range being Anthony Davis measured 6’9.75 and is Slightly but noticeably taller than him

Robbe said on 25/Feb/20
6'10 is too high for KD, he is shorter than 6'10 Möttölä, as shown in previous picture. Here 7ft listed Markkanen talking to KD. He is tilting his head deep down to look at KD. Indicates quite a height difference Click Here

Here KD with 6'11.75 listed Joel Embiid. KD looks like 3in shorter Click Here

KD is nowhere near 7ft even with shoes on. He is barefoot somewhere between 6'9-6'9.5.

Murtuza said on 15/Feb/20
@Editer Rob time to update the page because the average guess is 6’10.2”

Canson said on 15/Feb/20
@Riccardo: my guess is that’s close to an afternoon height for Durant. Maybe he dips to 6’9 3/8 or a little less but he can look a little taller than Demarcus Cousins too. Maybe Cousins dips under 6’9” by chance. But Gallinari may be close to 6’10” barefoot. Maybe 6’9.75 or something

Riccardo 5'7 said on 13/Feb/20
@Rob a d everyone

I see that Danilo Gallinari is billed at 6'10", wich I'm not completely sure about.
BTW there is a video of Gallinari an Durant in wich they look almost same height, probably Gallinari is slightly taller

FrankWang said on 12/Feb/20
6-9.5 is fair for KD

Canson said on 11/Feb/20
@Robbe: Walton was likely not even that in his prime. He looked nearly 3” shorter than Kareem and even said that in an interview with Dan Patrick when he asked him and accused him of being taller. It’s possible he was like Durant where he was a hair over 6’11” Afternoon height and was listed 6’11”. Maybe 6’11.25 is what he should be listed . Problem is that people that size don’t have the best posture so if you see someone like that it would appear taller. I have a 6’7” friend with equal (great) posture to mine and that is the standard to which I see 6’7”. If I see someone else with worse posture or who is really 6’6 range it always looks off to me. It’s imbalanced when I see my 6’6 flat friend at times as he is opposite with poor posture and can look eye to eye with me at 6’4.25 on occasion when in reality he is a solid 6’6” guy only coming down to that in the afternoon and waking Around 6’6 7/8 in the morning. Durant may be 6’9-6’9.5 range but not less or more. And he also has good posture at times when he appears taller than most and poor posture when he tries to fit in

Robbe said on 28/Jan/20
KD with 6'11.75 listed Bill Walton, and Bill with 6'10 listed Hanno Möttölä.

Click Here

Bill is obviously not even close to his current listing. Looks an inch shorter than Möttölä, so 6'9 might be close to the truth for Bill. What comes to KD, he looks slightly shorter than Bill there, but camera angle favours Bill, so they might be the same height, or KD even hair taller. KD is definitely not under 6'9, that's for sure.

Canson said on 13/Jan/20

Your being stubborn Rob, he frequently towers over legit 6'7 players in a a way a 6'9 guy could never and was frequently listed as 6'10, 6'11 in highschool and college. He is somewhere in the 6'10 range. If you don't believe me look at this picture with the 6'11 w/o shoes greg oden. Less than an inch. Click Here

His team gave him the 6ft 9.5

How is Rob being stubborn when he simply used the team’s official measurement? That sounds silly and is pretty insulting.

@Junior: your mom being tall made a difference too.

@Sean william Winter My parents is tall but not extreme tall. Mom 5'9 and dad 6'0 peak and seven boys include me in the house were all over 6'0 and four of us were over 6'4 up to 6'7 1/2. I don't think my brothers and i all follow my dad gene, sometimes it could be taller grandparents a bit of tall gene passing down to the next of next generation down which my mom's dad is 6'4 that explain why two of my brother got up 6'7 1/2, one 6'4 3/4 and me 6'5 5/8 all thanks to grand-dad.

@Shane: yea we’re different. Some days I wear Timbs or Jordan’s. I’ll be 6’5.5” in them in the afternoon but that’s about it. I still claim 6’4”. When in that type of footwear I’m often guessed 6’5” sometimes 6’6”. I’ve never been tempted to claim either tho except when I played college ball I would say close to 6’5”. Otherwise 6’4”.

@Canson I know what u mean I was asking avout a player unless I'm missing one of my comments. Around here so many average people claim shoe heights that if you claimed 6'5" which is about your early in day barefoot height nobody would doubt it. Many would say hes at least and maybe 6'6". I dont think I've ever had anyone guess me under 6'2" even though I can dip as low as 6'1" which is also likely due to almost always wearing some type of Air Max which are pretty tall so even if I'm at a low I'm still standing about 6'2 1/2" in my normal shoes.

@Cedric172: I’m about the same as you loss wise unless I hit the gym. I lose most in the first 5-6 hours after waking

Canson said on 25/Oct/19
@Cedric172: rob has said before and we can all verify that your afternoon and evening don’t vary by more than maybe 1/8”. 3/8” like you’re suggesting would be a morning height

Canson said on 25/Oct/19
@Shane: to answer what you said, I may look 6’4.5 to 6’5” to some honest people if they measure earlier in the day but if a person is an honest person who measures barefoot in the afternoon and I have a regular 1” shoe or go down to 5/8” then I look 6’4” to them only being about 1/4” over. Typically the most I should look to the average person is 6’4 1/2 since the average person doesn’t measure out of bed. Usually minimum an hour or two. Most don’t even know it does vary. Usually outside of this site, I never even bring that up except with my taller friends who claim their afternoon heights too and we discuss it occasionally. Other than that I don’t. If someone claims a height I will bounce it off my afternoon since I’m typically asked or gauged after I’ve been up for some time and I’m almost always closer to that height. When someone asks I always say 6’4”. Of course there are times I get a 6’3 range guy who claims 6’4” or 6’2.5 or so claiming 6’3 but I still maintain 6’4”. Really no desire on my part to be any taller either whereas in your case you prefer 6’2” over 6’1 and change for your claim. It’s gonna vary person to person. I know some athletes will claim their height in shoes and not even say it’s in shoes. You on the other hand are at least honest in that respect in that you would say that is a shoe height. Lol I have encountered some that don’t. One tried to convince me and a friend after he inflated us after repeatedly being told he’s not the height he claims, why he should be allowed to claim his shoes as a last ditch excuse because another guy stood up and told him the same thing and flat out said that he was a liar. Two people is one thing but When you try to inflate a third person you lose face and he resorted to it. It became well I walk around in shoes so I should be able to claim them. You all should claim yours too. This is a guy who was slightly shorter than me probably 6’3.5-.75 who claimed 6’5”. Didn’t help that my 6’5.25 friend was over an inch taller even with flats on and that I had him by half inch at least

@Rob: you mentioned Durant perhaps not forcing posture. Some guys naturally stand their best already. I don’t have to force mine typically when I stand as it is habit

Canson said on 25/Oct/19
@Cedric172: the low for Davis would be an afternoon height. 6’10 1/8” would be some time in the morning

Canson said on 24/Oct/19
@Shane: I meant Durant’s height may be but then again maybe it’s not. Only because Durant probably didn’t want to be any taller than listed before

Canson said on 24/Oct/19
@Joe: agreed. Durant May be 6’9.25-.5 range being AD edges him out too

Cedric
he is little smaller than deandre jordan solid 6'9.75.

Cedric 172 cm said on 23/Oct/19
Guys, if you see his claims makes 6'9.75" make sense.

He measured 6’9.5 a few weeks ago so how would 6’9.75 make sense?

@Rampage: either to make his accomplishments more impressive or because so many people make it a point to make him taller than he is. To be honest we don’t even know what time if the day he measured 6’9.5. Very possible he never grew. Durant has proven prior to him embellishing his height to be a truth teller in a liar’s world at least on paper. Of course these guys who were really 6’6” and listed 6’8 or 6’9” forced him to be called out
