@Hyper: I agree with all of those and likely that the low end of those would be afternoon heights and the higher ends the lunchtime. In other words
Fury could be 6’7.25 afternoon and 6’7 3/8 lunch or possibly 1/4” higher on each end 6’7 3/8 afternoon lunch 6’7.5
MCW is probably an afternoon 6’4.5 if that’s the case 6’4 5/8 lunch
Bo maybe what you said 6’5.5 afternoon 6’5 5/8 lunch or 1/8” below for each so 6’5 3/8 afternoon 6’5.5 lunch

Bo beat out MCW, but MCW really holds up well with many people.
Personally, I would go for this.
Tyson Fury: 6'7 1/4"-6'7 3/8"
Bo Burnham: 6'5 1/2"-6'5 5/8"
MCW: 6'4 1/2"-6'4 5/8"

Yeah i did go with 1cm difference in real but MCW have never look below 6'4 3/8 honestly always thought 6'4 1/2 before Rob added him.

Not the best angle in the picture but I would say Kobe looks slightly taller. I think it Would be 1cm or 1/2”.
A 6’4.75 combine measurement usually puts a player between 6’4.25-.5 for his afternoon height. The latter if the measurement was held 2-3 hours after waking the former if an hour or so. He could be 6’4.25 up to 6’4.5

@Junior: well he is listed at 6’5” after the “official” measurements this year which were also in the morning. So likely he was around the same as when he was drafted. Most were. I don’t buy these guys growing. Many were likely just kept at the barefoot listing if the player asked for it and some to save the face for the league as the measurement are all f’d up. And keep in mind when the NBA measures its to the 1/4” not the 1/8” so 6’4 5/8 would be rounded up. I could see him being my height or within 1/16 maybe either direction. Taller or shorter. I measure 194.8 after an hour and some days 194.7 so I’d get 6’4.75 too even tho I come down to around 6’4.25. I’m not sure if it’s me being almost 38 if my morning height has gone down. I tried recently a couple days and the norm is 195.7 but some days it’s exactly 6’5 195.6 now. I got 195.8-.9 years ago when I started here. And the sleep portion look below at the 2009. Danny Green Ty Lawson Wayne Ellington all were 1/2 or 3/4 lower so it wasn’t sleep it was the timing. If they are testing for their future they got ample enough to be able to do the drills. I have measured on 6 hours sleep and I still get the same result out of bed as I would on 8. If I get 10 maybe I’ll get 1/8” higher or so but 6-8 won’t make that much difference maybe 1/16 at absolute best. Face it the players get favored measuring early morning. Fair? I’d say so because when it’s close to valid it’s legit but you at 6’5 5/8-6’5 3/4 if you use your actual height for reference against someone with a supposed 6’4 3/4” you would expect at most a solid 1” difference. But then if you and I met up you would end up edging me by close to 1.5”. If we determined without measuring and were bit barefoot we would likely call it 1.5 since it would exceed 1” by a good amount and be closer to 1.5 than 1. That’s how they would end up and it’s assumed they inflate but it’s not. It’s timing. So that’s my philosophy. I never consider what I measure an hour after waking just what I am after I stop losing height prior to “true” compression which in my vocabulary is going below the normal low. In true words heading toward the extreme low which is anything far below my normal low. Discounting maybe a mm here and there since it can vary day to day. That said MCW may be my height up to 194 max. If we had a solid CM to go on or a solid 1/8 it’d be trustworthy. Usually it’s 1/2 for someone who loses slower like Christian 1/4” after one hour or 3/8” like me after one hour. I’ve never heard anyone lose more after an hour other than those who lift heavy immediately upon waking to work out. That’s it.

@Canson We don't know how much of sleep MCW gets or exact time of waking up and step in for the measurement. All i could say is 6'4 3/4 is what he exactly measure out and 6'4 1/4 worst low is what you estimate him but there could be higher chance he isn't under 6'4 3/8(194).

@Junior: they measure around 630 or 7 in the AM at the combine. I’ve seen the tweets. It’s not long after waking. Blake Griffin wasn’t long after either. MCW if he was a full 194.9 assuming not 5/8 then may dip to 6’4.25 worst case. Bo maybe Christian’s height but I doubt any higher. At times he still looks just a strong 6’5” vs weak 6’6”

Much possible he is 194cm a low and Bo Burnham 197cm. Measure at 7-8am in the morning at 194.9cm which mean he could lost an average 3/8 inch down to 194cm before bed or the worst 6'4 1/4 (193.7) but he didn't look below 194cm so 6'4 3/8 low for him.

@Junior: Wade is actually closer to the camera than Haslem and has Better posture. Wade next to Justice Winslow who measured 6’4.5 (meaning 6’4 at a low) looks physically taller than Wade. The 1st pic you can see that Winslow’s shoulders are much higher

@Canson I think Haslem is probably around 6'6" range at least.

At that same time, if we look at the picture of Bo Burnham and Michael, I have to wonder if Bo could actually be 6'5.375" or a stronger 6'5.25" than he's listed. Weirdly, looks the same as Haslem, if we're going by eye-level and comparison. Though I think Haslem may edge out Bo, but still. Bo shouldn't look that tall, but he looks that tall at times.

@Dream: I’ve always wondered how tall Haslem is. He came out in 03 just like Melo Wade Bosh and Lebron. I assumed that 03 was an afternoon measurement based on how Melo and Bogans look in person but maybe some laid down before. Haslem measured 6’6.75 but maybe it’s a morning height. I would peg him around 6’6.5 to be honest and MCW could be around my height. Funny that Udonis was listed 6’9” when he came in the league

@Canson Personally, I wouldn't put Kobe under 6'4 3/4". He edged out Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley.
I'd say 6'4.875" or even a full 6'5" is more than arguable for Bryant. However, the latter would be more a mid afternoon height, but he's certainly entitled to claim 6'5" more than the other two!

@Chase the reason why MCW was listed is because I brought up a comparison: Bo Burnham and Kobe Bryant both had pictures of them with Michael Carter Williams. Bo did 'look' taller than Kobe Bryant when comparing them with Michael Carter Williams. Some may disagree with me, which is more than understandable.

It's interesting how he looks the same or slightly taller than Kobe Bryant in that one photo.
Although, I'm not going to argue too much. I can't find the picture anymore, but MCW does hold very well with 'Big Show' in another picture I stumbled upon. He was even further away from the camera.

I suppose depending on time of day 6ft 4.5 might be possible.

MCW was shorter than Bo Burnham, but MCW and Kobe Bryant had only one 'weird' picture, and they looked the same. (The eye levels are deceiving! I need to find other photos of them!)
I don't know how MCW managed to look taller than Kobe Bryant, (going by their eye level.)
Side note: I've seen some of his games, and he's actually pretty good! I hope to see more of him in the game.
