Draft Combine measurements

[MUfan12]

Looks like Jae either grew an inch or was shortchanged. 6-6.5 in shoes, DJO 6-3 in shoes.

Or he put on shoes. I'm pretty sure the other measurements were sans sneakers.

His "in socks" measurement on there was an inch taller than the 6-3.75 we saw last week.

How many pairs of socks do ya think he had on to get that extra inch?  Back in the '70's little Calvin Murphy of the Rockets always wore 7 pairs of socks.  Maybe he was on to something.

Jae also apparently has large hands.

Shooting Guard Notes

Darius Johnson Odom ran with the 2s. Though undersized, he passes the eye-test. Broad shoulders, cut frame and sense of maturity. Such a rugged guard, I wouldn't be surprised to hear his name on draft night.



Small Forward Notes

Jae Crowder looked comfortable and in rhythm shooting from every spot inside the arc. He moves like a small forward, plays like a power forward, but has the size of a shooting guard. He measured 6'3.5 in socks in Portsmouth. If there's a coach out there who hates details and just loves good basketball players, that will be Crowder's best shot at reaching the next level.

Same size as Andre Drummond.

Shoes appear range from 1' to 1 3/4". I wonder if 3/4' has any effect on mobility, speed or jumping? Otherwise, why would wear a 1" shoe?

Here's the likely difference.....at Portsmouth Jae was probably measured long after he first woke up.  At the combine he was probably measured not as long after waking up. People lose over an inch in height as the day progresses.

Either that or he had his mom fix his hair in extra-thick cornrows before he went to Combine.

Are you serious?

[Dawson Rental]

Jae outweighs everyone except Kevin Jones, Terrance Jones and the centers.

No. It's like 1/20 of an inch. Not a full inch or anywhere near it.

It is about a 1/2 inch on average, but if you are taller than average it can be more. I know that I "shrink" close to an inch by night time.

Who here couldn't use an extra 1/2"? Whole lotta shakin' goin' on in the a.m.

I hope you aren't suggesting Jae could possibly hang with Andre Drummond on the court one-on-one.  Next you will say he would have a chance if he had to match up with kevin jones!

What, you didn't know Andre Drummond is the next Kevin Durant?

In a sock or not?

[Sharpie]

In a sock or not?

I always try to rid of an extra 1/2" in the am. I'm usually way too tall.
