I have an inkling Caitlin Clark (without shoes) would be height twins with CP3. Neither are 6’ flat, but both are very close to it
Jawilder said on 1/Mar/23
Yeah he looked an inch shorter than Isiah in that picture to me. Maybe 5’11 at most.
Leesheff1985 said on 28/Feb/23
Monkeyman you can clearly see he is at least 8 inches taller than the 6ft 8 player Blake stood next to him if not more. Just under 6 foot. Or at worst 5ft 11 1/2
Canson said on 26/Feb/23
@Jawilder: my guess is he’s probably Isiah Thomas’s height around 5’11.5-6’0”. That’s pretty cool that he went to school with your dad!

Didn’t see your pic with Thomas at first. Maybe Abdul-Rauf is 5’11”
Monkeyman said on 23/Feb/23
Easily over this listing. Chris did a tour at my job ( with all the basketball guys freaking out) and stood no less than 6’1.
Jawilder said on 21/Feb/23

My guess is 5’10.75 with 5’11.75 Isiah Thomas. Crazy he was listed 6’1 throughout his entire career.
Jawilder said on 21/Feb/23
How tall was Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf (Chris Jackson)? He went to high school with my dad. Watching his documentary right now, it’s great.

If he was 5'11.75 an hr outta bed then i can believe 5'11.25-5'11 3/8.

I’m within mms of Alvin Gentry’s height. I felt the exact same height as him when we met. I think Jrue is 6’2.25.

@Billy,thats cool.how are tall are you out of bed ?.i rarely lose 2cm in the day unless after a long sleep.especially, since i'm mostly legs,lol.

Not all measurements are accurate
Peter 180cm said on 1/Oct/22
Measurements are usually accurate but they are done early in the morning. About 181cm seems right for CP,always looked a solid 5'11.
recapa said on 29/Sep/22
i,m usually around 182 flat at worst and 181.5 at an extreme low and close if not the full 184 out of bed.by only looking at cp3 at porpotions, i highly doubt that he is as tall as me and doesnt strike me as the type to measure above a full 6ft out of bed.180.5-181 before bed and 182.5-183 out of bed.

Ghost of JT Yao said on 20/Jun/22
He's 5'11.5 and Trae is closer to 5'11.75

Neither are quite the full 6 feet, but I could easily see CP3 hitting over 6 feet in the morning right out of bed

@Jawilder I also used to think he is 6'1 to 6'0.5" at low, but honestly this season he actually looks taller so I would say it's confusing to know his height precisely...

Jawilder said on 23/Mar/22
@Carlos Santana Yeah I could definitely agree with all those estimates except Ja Morant. I used to think he was 6’1 max but now I don’t think he’s under the mark. Maybe 6’1 flat worst case. Jrue Holiday wasn’t under 6’2 but I didn’t think he was much over. He did measure 6’2.25 I believe.
Carlos Santana said on 22/Mar/22
Jawilder said on 18/Mar/22
@Cbrady you are definitely underestimating a couple of players.

Jrue Holiday- 6’2 flat, nothing over (seen him up close) (maybe 6'2.25" for him)
Stephen Curry- 6’1 5/8 (I agree)
Kyrie Irving- 6’1 3/8 (he's more like 6'1.25")
Donovan Mitchell- 6’0 7/8 ( I can agree but there's a chance that he's 6'1 flat)
Ja Morant- 6’1 1/8 (he's 6'1 max)
Trae Young- 6’0.25 (I agree)
Chris Paul- 5’11 (he's 5'11 1/4 5'11.5 max in my opinion)
Jawilder said on 20/Mar/22
@Canson You agree with the others?
Canson said on 19/Mar/22
@Jawilder: I could see Curry at 6’1.5” at his afternoon and 6’1 5/8 midday but 6’1 5/8 afternoon is also possible. You’re definitely in the right ball park for Kyrie. I’ve had him 6’1.25-.5 range.

I feel as though the notable guards in the NBA would measure like this:

Jrue Holiday- 187.5-188
Stephen Curry- 186.3-186.9
Kyrie Irving- 185-185.6
Donovan Mitchell- 184.5-185
Damian Lillard- 182.6-183.2
Ja Morant- 182.3-182.9
Trae Young- 181.5-182.1
Chris Paul- 179.9-180.4

Warren said on 10/Mar/22
5'11.7 is arguable for him
Canson said on 2/Mar/22
@Mmhmm: Blake is more 6’8”. If he dips below that it’s to 6’7.75 maybe at an afternoon or evening height. I agree with 5’11 for CP
Mmhmm said on 28/Jan/22
He’s barely 5’11. Blake is 6’7.5ish so. Plus there’s photos of him next to 6’0.5 Trae Young and he looks significantly shorter than him. Plus on the court he looks noticeably little
Canson said on 22/Nov/21
@Editor Rob: he’s nowhere near his listing next to (max) 6’3” JJ Redick and 6’4.5” Jamal Crawford. Redick has a 6’4 pre draft but was listed 6’3 post 2019 official measurements. He could even look a weak 6’3”. CP isn’t over 5’11” next to them

this aint looking very good for chis paul especially next to measured 6ft0.5(184.1) measured barefoot trae young .i,mma give trae the benefit of doubt and give him his measured 184.1 cm Click Here chris looks max 5ft11 there .this is listing is too much for chris.i wouldnt be suprised if he fell to a flat 180cm .180-180.3 for chris is good enough maybe even 181 but not more.
recapa said on 19/Sep/21
@Jawlider,agreed!.cp3 to me is already top 5 pg ever and if he wins a ring it will add up more to his legacy.that man deserves it.
Jawilder said on 14/Sep/21
@recapa You have him down perfect. He is 5’11, maybe 5’11.25” at most. My dad, who is 6’1, met him and was surprised how much shorter Chris was. He looks 5’11-5’11.25” with most people as many have pointed out.

Talking about basketball, hopefully he can get a ring before he retires. There isn’t a player more deserving of one in the NBA imo.

here chris next to 181-182 range jimmy fallon Click Here he looks shorter altough not by much maybe a cm or so .i can see chris being 180.5 and fallon 181.5 or 180 and 181 for both of them.the listing is too much for chris.also check him out with 182.5 listed rakitic he is shorter by 2cm or so making him in the 180-181 range again.

Cbrady said on 4/Aug/21
In this NBA.com measurement anthro I found some weird findings on Chris Paul. So he measures 5-11.75 without shoes and is listed at a 6-4.25 wingspan?! It gets weirder though because his standing reach (presumably without shoes) is only 7-9?

Then you look a couple rows down of Paul and find a player named Daryl Dorsey and his measurements were 5-11.25 without shoes with 5-11.5 wingspan (almost 5 inches shorter than Chris) but his standing reach is 7-10 (one inch higher than Chris). How is this even possible?

@Rob @Canson

Looking him with 6'3 Wade, he doesn't seem this height
Click Here
Click Here

CP3's top head is around 1/2" taller than Wade's eyelevel and if we give Wade his listed height of 6'3.25", his eyelevel should be around 5'10.5" which mean CP3 is around 5'11 or 5'11.25".
Editor Rob
5ft 11.5 is an arguable figure, if he got 5ft 11.75 at one point, it may have been earlier than noon.
Canson said on 25/May/21
I’d say 5’11.25 after 5. 5’11 later
Joe Pavel said on 24/May/21
Rob, why do you have him listed this height if you think he'd measure about 5 and 11,5 at a lunchtime?
Editor Rob
I have still considered that mark for him (11.5)
Joe Pavel said on 20/May/21
Hey, Rob! Do you think that he'd measure 5 and 11,50 about 5 hours out of bed? Thanks.
Editor Rob
that's a good possibility around that time.
Lkks said on 1/May/21
He looks somewhat tall meeting normal people, he is a basketballer I'm slightly more than in height/eye level.

He’s listed at 6’0” again this season and not the 6’1 he was last year
Canson said on 16/Jan/21
If Donovan Mitchell is actually 6’0” CP is 5’10”. Ironically Paul had been called 5’10 before by a few In the NBA although I think he’s 5’11
slim 6'1 said on 16/Jan/21
Somewhere in the 5’11” range
Canson said on 11/Jan/21
@Animus: i didn’t see one with Fallon. He can look it at times but then with Harden who measured 6’4 (early morning) who is about 6’3.5, that looks a little more than 4”. I also have Curry at 6’1.5 and he looked just over 2” taller. Maybe 5’11.25 but I can’t see 5’11.5
Animus said on 7/Jan/21
@Canson

That's fair, I respect yours too. You don't think he looks at least 5'11½ next to Fallon and certainly not 5'11?
Jawilder said on 7/Jan/21
My father who is 6’1 took a picture with him and had him by at least two inches. I’d say 5’11 flat
Canson said on 5/Jan/21
@Animus: I respect your opinion but he doesn’t look it to me
slim 6'1 said on 4/Jan/21
Strong 5’11” range 181-182cm
Animus said on 22/Dec/20
Here Chris Paul is with Jimmy Fallon (who is listed as 5'11½ on this site): Click Here
I think it's clear that Paul is slightly taller than Fallon. Again, as I have stated before, there is substantial evidence from multiple situations with different people that Chris Paul is nearly six feet tall, more precisely he is a strong 182cm.

@Canson

That photo with Kobe is tricky, because Kobe has the clear camera advantage. In general pictures up close of people who are vastly different in height are not that useful - it's better with a bit more distance to the camera.

In the photo with Anthony, Wade and Lebron, I don't think he looks below 5'11¾ (having also taken footwear into account).
Canson said on 22/Dec/20
@Editor Rob: any relation? Lol.

way overlisted.he looked identical to kimmel 5ft11 flat.

If Chris went by his full name of Christopher Paul, he'd have one of each vowel in his name. How unusual is that? 🤔
Chris is tall, sure, but looks rather small next to the huge basketball players!

He can have a Christmas guess of 5ft11.75. 🏀⛹️🎄🎅

@Canson

Testimony should not be the ultimate arbiter. It's only a specific kind of evidence, certainly a type that's admissible but it can often be highly tendentious. Sometimes guys like Iverson and Barkley are described as shorter than they are to make their achievements seem that much more impressive. That's definitely a real thing. And, furthermore, as long as we go by testimony, I value Rob's opinion higher than a basketball coach that doesn't really know what he's talking about.

But no matter how you slice it, you rely mostly on other's testimony and that's not really rigorous.

I am not understanding your logic. I don’t rely mostly on testimony. I use facts. I know people who’ve met him. And how would you trust Rob who has never met Iverson over Larry Brown who is a 5’8 range guy (listed 5’9”) that coached him for 6 years not to mention the Sixers have measured him within the organization? That makes no sense
Canson said on 19/Dec/20
@Animus: I don’t have Thomas as 6’0 either. So they may explain it. However, he’s a weak 6’.

To my eye that looks roughly like an inch difference in height and Isiah Thomas (HOF'er) was/is legitimately 6'0. I think it's fair to say Iverson is roughly 5'11.

I won't go into why CP3 isn't 5'11, again. I have already provided some arguments and you haven't.
Canson said on 17/Dec/20
Animus said on 16/Dec/20
Here is Chris Paul and Allen Iverson: Click Here
I'd say that's a pretty good example of 182cm versus 180cm.
Here is Chris Paul and Reggie Bush with similar footwear: Click Here
Reggie Bush is listed at 6'0, but I recall that measured in at 5'10¾ at the NFL Combine. Bush's afternoon height is probably 5'10¼-5'10¾ - call it 5'10½. I think Paul can look about 1½ inches taller. Again, the conclusion is that Chris Paul is roughly six feet tall; certainly not a 5'11 guy. Parsimoniously, I give Paul 5'11¾

Larry Brown said that Iverson is 5’10-5’11 range. He’s been measured before with the Sixers. 5’10-5’11 is how he’s been described from others who’ve met him too. Maybe 5’10.5”. CP would measure 5’11.75 early morning or near it. 5’11 isn’t a bad estimate for him

Chris Paul is definitely not a 5'11 guy as some people claim here. Here he is with Derrick Rose, who is listed at 6'1¼ here: Click Here
Is that how a 180-181cm guy would appear next to a 186cm guy? Granted the angle and the photo overall favors Chris Paul, but it's hard to find 2 inches worth of external factors that can explain that photo.
He also generally looks around six feet tall next to guys like LeBron and James Harden. I don't think it's possible to earnestly put him outside the 5'11½-6'0 range. I can definitely understand he measured in at 6'0¼ (he can look that tall sometimes), but that was probably early morning. 5'11½ is the absolute lowest I would go. It's possible he measures that at five in the afternoon. However, he can also look like a six-footer and since he apparently measured in at 5'11¾ at the draft, I think that's the most reasonable listing.

@ J2Frenzy - Funnily enough I was looking at the basketball page only yesterday. Indeed they are huge, but I did find one of a mere 5ft3. He could get trampled on by the giants! 😣

@Sandy remember a weak 6’0 is basically a dwarf by basketball standards

That guy standing next to Chris is ENORMOUS! Even Chris is above average at nearly 6ft and he looks quite small next to his fellow basketball player.

@5.9legit guy: no problem! That’s interesting. I remember Kevin Durant said Kyrie was 6’2” years ago When Kyrie was still in Cleveland. I wonder if he meant he’s that in shoes. I don’t rule out 6’1.75 morning height being 6’1 or 6’1.25” and 6’2-6’2.5 shoe

Great player btw
Canson said on 21/Apr/20
@Monkey Knees: I would give Walker the solid 5’11”. His measurement is inline with other players who measure 1/2” taller at the combine than in the afternoon. CP3 is a very odd case. We would assume that 5’11.75 would’ve been his afternoon and 6’0.25 his morning since he got that this year. However he never looks that tall. I would give him 5’11 too solely based on how he looks

If Paul is maybe 180.3 cm, LeBron looks 199.3 cm. If Paul is 181 cm LeBron looks 200 cm. If Paul is listed 182.2 cm, LeBron looks 201.2 cm.
Canson said on 21/Nov/19
@Monkey Knees: he got the same thing Lebron did, Treatment. 5’11.5 morning height maybe and 5’11 afternoon. He is not much taller than Allen Iverson was
Monkeyknees said on 19/Nov/19
Obviously 5ft 11.5in, or thereabouts, is correct morning height. Not dissimilar to 5ft 11.25in Kemba.
Canson said on 7/Nov/19
@Shane: I never realized he was dropped last year. Some analysts and players who played against him say he’s only 5’10”. My true guess is that he’s 5’11” and that the 5’11.75 was out of bed and he ended up like Draymond Green measuring near his out of bed height at the combine where other guys may lose a 1/4” or so before being measured. Maybe he’s like 5’11 5/8 when he got his
Shane Gray said on 29/Oct/19
@Canson Paul had been dropped to 6'0" last year and now went back to 6'1" with a barefoot listing. This is one of the listings that blatantly exposes the new height policy. Hes nowhere close to 6'1" barefoot at any time of the day.
Rafael Bueno de Oliveira said on 29/Oct/19
I think 5'11 max.
Canson said on 25/Oct/19
6’0.25 was rounded to 6’1. I agree with Viper. Shoes in the morning
Canson said on 25/Oct/19

viper said on 23/Oct/19
He measured that in shoes
Johnson said on 23/Oct/19
Perhaps the small change was distorted and they meant 6'0.5 because nba lists him 6'1 now, officially
Jackson said on 22/Oct/19
Chris Paul’s new nba height has been upped from 6’0” to 6’1” !!! What the heck
Canson said on 22/Oct/19
@Johnson: apparently he’s still listed at 6’1
viper said on 22/Oct/19
Can't find the original source but this guy says 6-0.25

Johnson said on 22/Oct/19
@viper source for the 6'0.25 ??
Canson said on 21/Oct/19
There’s no way he’s anything over 5’11”
Canson said on 20/Oct/19
@Viper: lol that’s crap
viper said on 20/Oct/19
He supposedly measured 6-0.25
Johnson said on 22/Aug/19
He met Barcelona football/soccer players!!!!
Canson said on 30/Jul/19
@Warren: I think 5’11” flat for his afternoon. Some players measure 1/2 or 3/4” taller. I think the case with the latter has more to do with the fact that 1/8” increments aren’t used or if they have possibly a shoe lift. But CP probably would edge AI by about 1/2”. Larry Brown and Lebron both said AI was 5’10/5’11
Warren said on 21/Jul/19
If draft heights were late morning measurements(AM9-11) or early afternoon measurements(PM1-3). His evening height most likely be a 5'11"-5'11.25"(180-181cm).
Canson said on 13/Jul/19
@KA188: some that met him here say he’s only 5’10 as did Kenny Smith. I do think 5’11 though. Allen Iverson at 5’10.5 is slightly shorter than him
K.A 188 said on 10/Jul/19
5ft11 at Most. .
Canson said on 8/Jul/19
@Junior and Frost: there was a poster here named Kroc and one called Baller FL below that both met him and said he’s 5’10. Now he measured what he did but see the pics with Jarrett Jack. He’s definitely over 3” shorter and I’ve met Jack more times than I can remember. I’ve played against him repeatedly and he’s 2” shorter than I am. I’d give him 6’2.25 at a low probably. Jack can honesty have 4” on CP3
Canson said on 8/Jul/19
@Junior: it’s very possible that he did dip 2cm. Remember if someone wakes up and immediately lays around before measuring that they will still be close to the top. But also remember that 5’11.53 could be 5’11.75 on paper. When it’s even a mm over they will round it up may even if it’s dead on half. So 5’11.53 could easily be 5’11 at a low. He really never looks more than 5’11” to me. I’ve seen pics of him with Jarrett Jack and that’s minimum a 3” difference if not slightly over the mark
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 2/Jul/19
@Canson how can he lost 2cm from 7am average time draft measurement? Steve Nash need to bring down 6'0.25" if CP is 5'11. 181cm is the worst. Sometime CP look his full 5'11 3/4 and most of time i admmit a little lower he look .25-.5" range.
Frost said on 10/Jun/19
@canson I don't think that's at best. A flat 5'11" is the lowest I could go with him. 5'11.25"-5'11.5" I can see being the better measurements for him in the afternoon.

He's definitely not 6 feet so I don't get the average guess.

Lowry is shorter than Paul tho.
Canson said on 8/Jun/19
@Frost: Paul is 5’11 flat at best
Frost said on 4/Jun/19
@sam Lowry is like a half inch shorter than Chris Paul consistently but oddly not much more than an inch shorter than Lillard. 5'10.75-5'11.25 is arguable for Lowry. Slightly shorter than drake as well. If he was listed here I think he'd get 5'11.25"

FVV is quite a way shorter from what I've seen.

Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 17/Jan/19
Curious did Paul get his measurement 182cm on the dot and get round up at 5'11 3/4 or he did reach 182.2cm an exact 5'11 3/4. Because someone this height doesn't make change much through out the day from morning height maybe fraction below or 8mm, worst 1cm and i don't think he fall into flat 181cm trap if he was measure 182.2cm. My previous thought of him 5'11 3/8 now i could see he could be 5'11 1/2.
Monkey knees said on 9/Jan/19
Lillard 6ft morning height.
Paul 5ft 11.25in morning height.
Confirmed through kit work at moda centre.
Canson said on 24/Oct/18
He looks shorter than Lillard. Rondo is listed at 6’1” (he’s 6’0” barefoot) and is taller than CP3 when you saw the altercation they were in the other night. 5’11 tops

Monkey knees said on 22/Oct/18
Just under 6ft. Same height as Dame.
Canson said on 10/Oct/18
@Christian: it’s possible he got the same as Dwade or Damian Lillard. Ben Wallace is another guy whose pre draft was boosted. He’s admitted to being 6’6/6’7 before and he’s clearly at least 3” shorter than 6’9.75 measures Rasheed Wallace and is significantly shorter than an aged Bill Russell. And that’s if Wallace is actually that tall at his low. Although Wallace looks minimum 6’9.5 so I could see it. Either way, Ben Wallace ends up around that claim, not the 6’7.75 that the NBA claims he measured
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 8/Oct/18
@Canson

If CP3's under 5'11", he could be in the same situation as Wade, where either he was measured 5'11.75" wearing shoes, or the 5'11.75" was an error that was supposed to be 5'10.75".
Canson said on 6/Oct/18
@Legit 6’2”: he likely is max 5’11” if not a little under. I think Lillard May edge him and I agree Lillard is at most 6’0”. He is not as tall as Derrick Rose or Kyrie or Curry or Russ. The first three are 6’1-6’2 and Russ is a strong 6’2”
Canson said on 6/Oct/18

@Monkey

It's insane how Lillard's billed 6'3" by NBA. I believe he's one of the most inflated players in the league.
Canson said on 18/Sep/18
@Monkey Knees: Lillard is taller than CP3. If Lillard is that low, CP is 5’10 which two posters below said as well as Kenny Smith. I have CP at around 5’11 but 5’10” is believable
Monkey knees said on 15/Sep/18
Same height roughly as Lillard. Dead on.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 30/Aug/18
Has to be 181cm or just 1/8 lower at worst.
Canson said on 19/Jul/18
5’11 barefoot likely got a morning height
Canson said on 22/Jun/18
@Height: agreed
Height said on 21/Jun/18
Minus the 3/4: 5'11" flat.
Canson said on 5/Jun/18
@Fer: he does at times. He looks as tall (almost) as a 6’10 listed guy in Kevin Love. But a lot of guys listed 6’9” in the NBA measure 6’7.5 in the AM meaning they’d be 6’7” at a low which is where Lebron would fall around that mark maybe a flat 200cm if anything
Canson said on 2/Jun/18
Kenny smith called him 5’10/5’11 on Inside the NBA the night the Rockets got in a fight with the Clippers. He surely does not look 5’11.75 nor does he look 5’11.25 really assuming the former were Morning height. Looks similar to AI maybe minimally taller
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 20/May/18
I did give 5'11 1/8 lowest for Paul and i think 182.2cm might be a 1/8 round up to make it a 5'11 3/4.
Canson said on 16/May/18
Agree with frost. He is no more at a low than 5’11”
Frost said on 4/May/18
He ain't 6'0 come on guys
Canson 194cm said on 30/Apr/18
5’11 at a low
Canson said on 13/Feb/18
@Junior: that’s about how they look to me
Junior Hernandez said on 11/Feb/18
@Canson

CP3 def can edge out Iverson by half inch but not over. AI can look flat 5'10.5" with Kobe, but CP3 don't look under 5'11 next to Kobe.
Canson said on 6/Feb/18
@Junior: yea I can’t buy over 5’11”. He can look closer in height with AI who is 5’10 1/2-3/4 at his lowest
Junior Hernandez said on 1/Feb/18
CP3 need a downgrade at 5'11 1/8 by generous. I wouldn't go higher than 5'11 1/4.
Canson said on 25/Jan/18
he looks 5’11” max. Compare him to someone like Jarrett Jack or Allen Iverson or even Russell Westbrook. That doesn’t add up.

Very talented for a bballer who’s not cleared the 6’ or 190 mark.
Canson said on 8/Jan/18
@Alex: I don’t have any proof that he is honestly. My opinion is he isn’t over 180 max
Alex said on 4/Jan/18
Canson he’s atleast 182cm
Canson said on 28/Nov/17
@Junior: he may not be over 180. at times can looks 179 honestly but others he can look 181ish. He barely would edge out AI i doubt. Maybe 180 AI 179.
Slim 185 said on 22/Nov/17
181ish imho, not a proper 6’ like Siddig and Neal.
Johnson said on 9/Nov/17
Look at him with Jay Z. They are close of what official listings say of both
Junior said on 8/Nov/17
Kobe make Chris Paul look like 180cm all the time. I start to wonder if the draft measurement was include thick socks and a few mm hair tip to round up players height since most of them atually look 2cm shorter than listing.
Chase said on 31/Oct/17
Everyone's arguing over 5'11.5 and this listing and I'm trying to get him put at 6 foot
Canson said on 31/Oct/17
This is a tough one Junior. I saw a couple people who met him say 5’10 range below like FL Baller and KROC. kROC was pretty accurate on his guesses but he’s 6’5 so may have been off by a bit on him. I’d say no way shape or form is he 5’11.75 at his lowest but he could be what you have him 182 morning 180 evening or 181 morning and 179 evening like Allen Iverson
Junior said on 31/Oct/17
@Slim 6

Agree. But Paul can be measure 182cm in the morning.
Slim 6' said on 24/Oct/17
Strong 5'11" downgrade necessary. More 181 area.

There is no doubt that he's height is 5ft 11.7inches in barefoot and 6ft and 4/5 inches with shoes.
Canson said on 21/Oct/17
@Bez: Kobe is closer to 195 than 194. Melo is 198.5ish (met him in person) lebron probably more like 200. I agree CP3 isn’t more than maybe 5’10.75
bez said on 20/Oct/17
also I saw someone here giving Carmelo at 6'6 and Lebron at 6'7. No way, strictly. One is lying, I think it's Lebron

He might hit 5'11½ at his low. He's probably in the 181-182cm range and I personally think of the two figures he is closer to 182cm.

I'd say CP is max 5'11.

AI is 5'10.5

About 180-181cm, definitely not over 181cm though.
Rising - 174 cm said on 28/Aug/17
Iverson has worse posture, but looks like he could have a fraction more footwear. I've always thought they were extremely close. CP3 could be a hair taller, but not much.
Canson said on 15/Aug/17
@Slim: I'm not sure how much taller tho. Looks like he's favored but AI may have the footwear advantage. He may be 5'11 AI 5'10.5
Slim 182 cm said on 6/Aug/17
He measures 181.61 for me concretely, remember rakitic got a 5'11.7 listing because his morning height is 183.5? Then this guys morning height would be 182.88(6') so I'd give the quarter inch downgrade. Hes a bit taller than Iverson: Click Here

Christian is spot on. At 6'3" some guys that size spread well enough and wingspan high enough to play the 3. There are a couple who do from time to time whereas as classic 6'7" can play center in a pinch

Rob, whats an average height in the nba that you must be or should
Editor Rob: obviously the taller you are the more beneficial some aspects of the game can be, but there are still some good players under six foot...

I'm not sure what an optimal height is though.

-------

The optimal range is 6'3"-6'7" I feel. At that height range you're not too tall to be a Guard, neither are you too short to be a Foward. But the best height to be an overall skilled player might be 6'5" (I might sound biased because I'm around that height myself, but I'm actually not)

Carmelo is 6'6 not 6'5. I've met him. He is close enough with his pre draft. Kobe is 6'4.75ish by comparison. Also by comparison Lebron is a weak 6'7". (6'6 5/8-3/4). Love strong 6'7" chandler I agree with tho
S.J.H said on 27/Mar/17
To be honest sometimes i don't even see CP3 over 179cm and he look 182cm with those basketball sneakers on
Canson said on 23/Mar/17
Think SJH is closer, don't know what to claim. I don't think CP3 is that unless he's in shoes in the morning. He doesn't look over 5'11" and KROC and FL Baller (who is near that height) said he's only 5'10. My guess is he's weak 5'11 at worst
Don't know what to claim (5'11) said on 21/Mar/17
Click Here

I believe the guy in the beginning is described as 6'6 at 3:52 in this video Click Here

By that, Kobe is approx. 6'5
Lebron 6'7.5
Carmelo anthony 6'5
Tyson Chandler 6'11
CP3 6'0.5
Kevin Love 6'8
Canson said on 3/Mar/17
@S.J.H: Duhon has a point where 5'11" guys especially if well proportioned sometimes even not easily pass for 6' tall especially with height varying. A guy who wakes near or at 6' and drops to 5'11-11.25 may say 6'0" either way and most people unless within an inch either direction and honest will take it at face value esp with the way perception of height is these days. You know too being the height you are. But I do agree esp with people having met Paul on this site that there's a chance he isn't really that height he's listed. I do know that the .75 is thrown around judiciously like you mentioned for Wall my buddy is a solid (almost can be considered strong since he barely falls below it usually 190.4 is his lowest), he said Wall is an inch to inch and a half shorter than him and he's met Wall more than once. He did say Beal was correct tho (he may have grown) or may not fall below 6-3. He actually said Beal may he slightly taller when he met him. But for Paul I saw where kroc and fl baller said he's 5'10. That looks short for him but they met him and one is close in height so possible he is
S.J.H said on 2/Mar/17
@Duhon

Question is chris paul doesn't look 6'0 and 5'11.5 both and honestly sometimes he only look 179 to 180cm so 5'10.75 could be possible at his lowest. Trust me a real 6'0 and a 5'11 can be tell by frame if you really looking more at it. I've know 2 legit 5'11 friend who doesn't look shorter than chris paul and our good friend were 6'0.25 look way taller than paul.
Duhon said on 28/Feb/17
S.J.H said on 24/Feb/17
Paul himself claim 6'0 but we all know he look nothing close and just 5'11 is bang on

To most people 5'11" and 6' does look close. Unless they have bad posture or weird proportions most 5'11" guys can get away with saying they're 6'.

For a 181-182 guy, he always seems shorter than everybody else in commercials that he does (aside from the Hooper family commercials because of the other tall NBA players he's around).

Have met him in person as well being a frequent Staples Center Visitor. He looked the exact same height as me I'm five eleven flat
Brandon said on 3/Aug/16
If he got measured at 5'11.75" then he is 5'11.75". Obviously it was in the morning so he probably walks around at 5'11.5". Its actually pretty easy to look half an inch to an inch shorter than what you actually are. i'm 5'11" and I have been mistaken as being as tall as 6'2" and as short as 5'9".
Canson said on 20/Jul/16

If what ballerFL and KROC said is accurate (no reason to doubt) Paul's in shoes would've been moved to the other column. Nobody his height loses 1.5".
Canson said on 2/Jul/16
@Kbeagles: KROC is generally right more often than not but yes I agree nobody is 100% accurate. However FLballer met him in person (below) and said the same thing. My guess is he's at most a weak 5'11.
Canson said on 29/Jun/16
@md: I will try. But I heard it on TV I believe
Canson said on 29/Jun/16
@Kbeagles: I'm sure he isn't right 100% of the time but he did say a little under 5'11 that could be off and he could be 5'11 flat. But to KROC's credit he guessed people where it made sense
KBeagles said on 26/Jun/16
KROC isnt right 100 percent of the time. Nobody is.

Chris flat out looks over an inch taller than 5'10 minimum Reggie Bush. Paul is 5'11 minimum.

Paul wouldnt shrink 2 inches from his measurement.
MD said on 23/Jun/16
@Canson, if you could find that quote from him, that would be great. I'd never heard him say it.
Canson said on 22/Jun/16
@Rob: I wonder if this is the case of a shoe measurement getting moved over. He's said before he's under 5'11 and even Others have guessed him at that
EzioAuditore711 said on 19/Jun/16
Is 5'11.75" an out of bed measurement?

I would say it is sometime within 1-2 hours of wakening.
