Drummond measuring at 6'11.75' with shoes.

Lillard with a great wingspan 6'7.75 for a 6'3" guy is pretty great.

Honestly I wouldn't mind either. A center if drummond pans our or a scorer like rivers.

Drummond's stats are insane. Great height, nice wingspan, and at 278lbs, only 7.2% body fat.

I don't think there's any doubt some team will fall in love and pick him in the top 5-6.

T-rob : 6'7.75"

Very small for a 4, he does have the body though; 244lbs with 5.0% BF.

Yeah, don't you need close to 7% for your liver and kidneys to function properly?

Yeah, I think our perception of size in the NBA is greatly skewed.

Best listing of actual heights of NBA players I have found

Notice how few true 7 footers there have been. You can pretty much subtract an inch and a half from any players listed height and be pretty close to their real height.

with a longer wingspan than Sullinger, but Sullinger has him beat on standing reach.

Robinson was 6' 8 3/4" with shoes.

For anyone not good at math, he's basically 6'9"

Most athletes are under 7%. I remember reading three nfl examples a couple years ago- Andre Johnson, Ricky Williams, and AP were all at 4%.

Who ever quoted 9-18% is 'healthy', that is bullshite. Once you get over 12%, your abs cannot show. I'd say for athletes 5-9% is average. For the casual health and fitness nut, 8-12% is average.

I thought body builders were around 3-4 when they competed. No one in the pros are near as ripped as those guys

Ripped yes, huge-no. You could be a skinny little bitch and only have 5% BF.
