Didn't we use to list Ayo at 6'6"? He is now 6'4" in starting lineups, lol.

Guess we really know now... Hawkins - 6'8, Kofi - 6'10, Trent - 5' 11", DMFW- 6'1" etc.

Think we had him at 6'5" and he measured 6'5" in shoes at the Combine. He measured 6'3.5" without shoes. There never seems to be much consistency with what teams list (height in shoes vs. without) but I believe with shoes is more common, so not sure why he's listed at 6'4". Either way, that wingspan of his helps him play more like he's 6'6" anyways.

6'10" wingspan, correct?

I guess at the end I should've made note that this proves all schools from grade school through college fudge a bit on the height. I was listed at 6'1" from 7th grade on and never got over 5' 11 and 15/16 all my life

Maybe they need to come up with a measurement that combines wingspan and height like standing reach. On the other hand height is probably overemphasized anyway. Quickness never seemed to be measured but certainly an equivalent factor.

For those bettors out there who decided to lay the points with the Suns against the Bulls, Malcolm Hill just singlehandedly ruined your evening. +12 in the final 2 minutes of garbage time, 8 points in 46 seconds. Suns had a 97% chance of covering the 6.5 point spread at the 2:51 mark when it was 125-108 suns. Malcolm nearly had a Tmac moment.

I mean... he did. If you trip because the man you're defending gets you off balance and moving one direction, that's the definition of getting your ankles broken.

It sure looks to me like he is trying to shimmy around the pick and gets his feet tangled up and/or trips on Ayton’s heel. Not the typical thing I think about when someone “gets their ankles broken.” He wasn’t even moving laterally, he was moving forward.
