Besides the Zion weight change (Kris Chrisp says he's actually 271), I notice that Fears is listed at 6'4". For reference, he measured 6'2.25" at the combine and was listed at 6'3" last season. So, maybe he grew an inch.

Trey was listed at 206 last season, and he's listed at 220 now. Oh, and we officially changed his height to 6'9", which we know is not new.

Saddiq was listed at 215 last season, and he's listed at 240 now. My instinct on this is not that he put on weight this off-season, but just that he's listed more accurately now.

DQ was listed at 6'9" and 250 lbs. last season, and he's listed at 6'10" 255 now, so maybe he also grew a bit. Those of us who hoped he might come in a bit lighter, though, would seem to be disappointed in that hope.

Its weird seeing 2 years NBA experience for Karlo even though we drafted him like 7 years ago.

Fears at 188 is good progress. He's at ideal weight if that ends up as his playing weight. Trey looked huge in his offseason videos. We'll see if he can maintain the weight. That's been his issue ever since he started trying to get bigger. Queen was also listed as 6'10.

Fears at combine: Measured 6' 2.50” barefoot, 179.6 lbs, 6' 5.25” wingspan, and 8' 2.50” standing reach with a 32.5" no-step vertical and 36.5" maximum vertical at the 2025 NBA Draft Combine …

DQ at combine: Derik Queen measured 6' 9.25” barefoot, 247.8 lbs, 7' 0.50” wingspan, 9' 1.50” standing reach with a 23.5 no step vertical and 28.0 maximum vertical at the 2025 NBA Draft Combine.

I don't have a problem with Queen gaining 5 pounds. Muscle weighs more than fat. His issue was baby fat last year. His weight is fine. Especially if he actually got an inch taller.

Zion taking 7 years to lose 7 pounds is incredible stuff, although to both his credit and discredit, he was 340 a couple different times when he was injured.

Did Matkovic gain height and weight? 6’11 255 is impressive.

Edit: he was 6’10 231 last year

Karlo is 25 years old. He didn't grow. It would seem that the front office decided to adjust a number of measurements. And I don't think that Karlo is really 6 ft 11 in. When I take that into consideration, it makes me a bit more skeptical that Fears and DQ have grown.

Fears was the youngest or 2nd youngest player in the league last year. It's actually very possible that he grew. Cooper Flagg, the other youngest, supposedly grew 2 inches as well.

DQ, on the other hand, probably didn't grow at age 21/22.

You know damn well he gets down to the listed weight once in the offseason and then blows up throughout the year.

As far as Queen goes, it's possible the growth happened during last season and the measurements now reflects that.

An NBA basketball player being 6’6 271 lbs is unbelievably incredible. I just don’t understand how he keeps that weight being on an NBA training plan. Still incredible he can hammer it down so hard and well being that big also.

If he could take being hit by pros in the NFL his athleticism/footwork for that size would be unmatched in the NFL.
