@Canson Cavs have most conservative rosters in league. Rubio, Love, Allen and Mitchell all down two inches from pre 2019 listings. Allen kept his 6'11" after 2019 and dropped 2 inches for Cavs and Rubio is listed at 6'2" for first time in career with Cavs.

@Canson I do remember Respert and remember his 6'3" listing. I believe NBA should starting calling them playing height rosters to eliminate confusion and clarify a standard consistent with over 40 years of historic listings. They said they instituted the roster policy for betting purposes, which was total bs. That said, call them playing height rosters and send official barefoot heights to Vegas before each season and they can do with them whatever they want (which is nothing.) And if all rosters are labeled playing height -- such as Miami Heat Playing Height Roster -- we would have a standard players like and one where everyone knew the heights listed are in shoe. We get the barefoot heights of most players anywhere at the various combines so we would still have those. Aa it is now, we have some barefoot heights, lots an inch over barefoot and quite a few shoe heights. In my opinion, it's more confusing now for casual fans than before. At least before many fans simply realized most heights were in shoes. Now it's really random.

@Shane: actually 6’1.25 would suffice for 6’3 if they measure and round from 6’2.5 since we’re talking 1.25” for sneaks. Do you remember Shawn Respert? He was listed 6’3 but measured 6’0.5 or 6’0.75 from what I recall. He played for Michigan state. That probably wasn’t his doing though. I’m sure it was the team and I’ve seen him listed 6’1” other places and 6’2 but I remember his nba listing was 6’3”.. I think a guy like curry would easily get a 6’3 listing even if his afternoon height is taken where He’s likely a 6’1.5 guy and 6’2.25 out of bed

@Shane: yea that eliminates lifts lol. I’ve seen some doozies. One guy I think Derrick Brown was 6’5.25 barefoot and 6’8.5 in shoes 😂 😂 😂. I think the fair approach was to do it the way they did before where they had the barefoot and in shoe measurement and just specify both. I just wish they did it either later in the day or that all players were measured at the same time of the day or around the same time of day and we were able to get an accurate gauge as to what time of the day it is for each one. So if they do it first thing out of bed, we could estimate what they would be in the afternoon.

Mitchell back to being listed 6'1" on both espn and NBA sites. I hate the barefoot listings. 40 years of NBA comparables and standards down the drain. I suggest they measure everyone barefoot and then add one inch and the round to nearest inch. So to get a 6'3" listing, you'd need to measure at least 6'1 1/2". Any lower and it goes to 6'2".

@Viper: he’s closer to 6’6 than 6’9” if I had to guess except out of bed when he could measure 6’8 flat. Even if 6’7.25 is his afternoon which I doubt, that’s fractionally closer to 6’6 lol. I have him as a flat 6’7” though

Oddly enough, both Mitchell and George Hill measured 6’1.25” w/I shoes at their combine. However, Mitchell is listed at 6’0” right now, and Hill is listed at 6’4” right now lol.

I’d say 186 like Rampage said is best case (maybe) if he measured afternoon. Really I’d say 6’1” flat but worst 6’0.75” if morning

@Jay Hay: being they measure guys earlier in the day on occasion it’s very possible he’s not that at a low. Otherwise he would’ve been listed 6’2” being he’d be that out of bed and 6’1.25 afternoon height. He could be 6’0.75 or 6’1 at a low

I think he’s probably 6’1 1/4 barefoot at a low. I don’t know how the how the hell he could measure below 6’1”, maybe he was slouching?

@Junior: Dame at 6’0.25 is not impossible and I doubt Dame is as tall as Mitchell. Mitchell is probably worst case 6’0.75”. That 6’0” listing appears to be a mistake
@Editor Rob: I think there is a discrepancy with the listings for Mitchell and Mike Conley. The Jazz now have Mitchell listed 6’0 and Conley 6’1 when it’s the other way around (per 2020 measurements)

@JAWilder: good question. 6’0.75 is the lowest I would’ve seen for him (a a stretch) 6’0.5”. 6’0” is very surprising. I could’ve even bought the full 6’1” listing as some guys don’t necessarily lose 1/2” from their listing if it’s 2-3 hours out of bed. Probably rare but I could almost see it with Kawhi Leonard. I would’ve put him at 6’5.75 but I also don’t rule out 6’5.5”. He’s definitely not 6’6 though

@Viper. You mean underlist by an Inch. I’ve seen several players over listed by as much as 3. Lillard could be a candidate taking about afternoon heights
@Editor Rob: what if that was a shoe measurement that was placed in the barefoot category? That seems to be the case with Lillard. He’s nowhere near his listing

@Editor Rob: be fair, see him with Mike Conley. Conley was measured 5’11.5 back in 2007. Was it possibly a roundup or a morning like height? Possibly. I say morning like only because some guys will be measured in the afternoon but lay around until they get measured. So is Conley only 5’11”? Possibly. Mitchell only has him by an inch. Or maybe he’s 6’0 and change. It looks like ESPN and NBA.com are not aligned. Dwight Howard is listed 6’10 on ESPN and NBA.com 6’9”
