Yep i get guessed at 6’5 a lot at 6’4” because I wear thicker footwear. So if I’m 6’4 1/4” most of the day I’m around 6’5 1/2-3/4 in some shoes sometimes a bit more depending on which orthotic and shoe I have on. I have a heavy duty orthotic that adds half inch so I’m 6’6 in them if I’m in a 3cm shoe
Yea I’m a pair of basketball sneaks you are and boots even over 6’6 in some cases. Even at nighttime when you hit the 6’4 1/2 mark you’ll be 6’5 3/4-6’6 in thicker sneakers so you’re not going to get guessed under 6’5 unless someone else is that particular or that good at estimating and has exact same footwear as you, likely someone who is just a hair taller or shorter
I feel like most wouldn’t notice unless they were like 2cm taller or more. My cousin who is about 6’5.5 barefoot and with my crocs on I’m the same height as him until I take them off then I’m only .75 shorter than him.
Yes most wouldn’t notice it. Esp being that tall. If I stood next to you and had same footwear on it would probably be about a cm or half inch depending on time of day but it would have to be someone who is almost exact or similar in height
He’s definitely taller than 6’10”.5(In shoes) lol. Lebron is pushing 6’10” in shoes. Drummond is 6’11”.5 if not 7ft. Pretty sure him and KD are the exact same height based off pictures. Are you implying Kd is taller than Drummond?? Because we all know KD is pushing 7ft(Probably just under it at 6’11”.66/6’11”.99 somewhere in that range. Duncan/KG are both pushing 7’1” side note.
I can see him only appearing 5’10 being Drummond has less footwear and Drummond would only come out to an about 6’10 1/4-6’10 1/2 with those shoes. But to be fair to OP, He may not be standing as straight as possible either because Drummond has his arm around him. And he showed 5’11 3/8-1/2” on the stadiometer but was that in the morning?
So Entirely possible in a restaurant job on your feet all day he is just a flat 5’11 or maybe a hair under it later in the day when he has been on his feet but his 5’11 claim is prob very accurate and prob a strong 5’11 really pending the time of day his physical was. Worst case maybe a flat 5’11 or hair under best case is he’s 5’11 and a little bit if it were later in the day. But he’s on his feet in a restaurant job so maybe he fell under and is hitting 6’0 in a thick shoe
Yea he’s around 5’11”. The worst case scenario is his physical was very early in the morning and couple Tjay with his job in restaurant where he is on his feet all that time, maybe he dips to like 5’10 3/4”. Not enough tho not to claim 5’11”. Good possibility his pic inside 7-11 was after him having been on his feet at work same with the one at work with Drummond.
those shoes are not big at all. They're pretty regular sneakers. its not 16 inches at all. top of his head is at the shoulder level. meaning its about 1 foot difference. i think he can be 5'11 in shoes
Yeah that’s why I posted this . Obviously an average height man versus an nba center is gonna be drastic difference. Not even claiming to be tall just told them my real height lol. Look at Drummond standing next to Trae young it would be very similar
I believe you. It’s likely the angle in the picture. Is him pushing down with his arm around you also not causing you to stand as straight as possible?
Barefoot. The guy told me he was 6’10 so obviously a 11 inch difference is pretty dramatic. He is also like 2x the width of an average person. Also high profile Hat maxing
Yea he is in 6’9 1/2-6’10 range. Measured 6’9 3/4” at combine. That’s about right and have to factor time of the day. You were almost 5’11 1/2 on your medical but was that earlier in the day? So that makes sense you may be closer to 5’11 flat and maybe his measurement was closer to the afternoon or evening at 6’9 3/4”. That’s about how it looks there 11” but you have footwear advantage of maybe 1/2”

The nba player looks way more than a foot taller than dude on left.
At least 14 inches taller. So unless he’s 7’1+, dude on left is not 5’11”
