Andre Drummond's Height
6ft 9 ¾ (207.6 cm)
American basketball player, who has played as a Center for the Detroit Pistons. In a Sports Illustrated interview he said "I've been lied to my whole life. I'm not seven foot, I'm about 6'9", 6'10", around that area. It's fine, I really don't care if I'm not as tall as everyone says I am. I'm doing fine".
At the draft he came in at 6ft 11.75 in shoes and without them 6ft 9.75.

@Wingspanpro: I think both are over 6’10. They may be more 6’10.25-.5 out of bed maybe for Drummond at least

@Editor Rob: how much of a difference would you say between Drummond and Greg Monroe? I would say Drummond looks the taller of the two but Monroe was measured in 2010 (likely earlier in the morning) and Drummond maybe a few hours later. I’d have said max 1 cm. Could look .25-.5” considering stances could be different

Editor RobThat looks a small 1/4 inch or so...maybe it would look slightly greater if you photographed them higher up and closer.

He is likely not higher than 6’9.5” afternoon. That’s why he said 6’9/6’10

drummond might be similar to kd or even slightly taller anything from 6ft9 1/8 to 6ft9.75 is good for him.so i am gonna go with the middle and give him 207cm.

@Editor Rob,could you expand your basketball shoes video list ? They are awesome
I would like you to measure how much gain height do Lebron 15s give us !
I was wondering which pair of basketball shoes could have used Drummond to gain 2inches

Editor RobI think some big sizes like 12-15 will give a little fraction more than the size 8-9 range.

@Robbe: that raises even more suspicion as to whether that’s a morning measurement for Embiid. Drummond’s looks like one being I see more between Blake Griffin and Deandre Jordan than I do between Drummond and Griffin. Jordan’s looks like an afternoon measurement

@Rob: I think 6’9.75 for AD. Durant May dip under to 6’9.25 the more I see. I didn’t realize how much taller he is but AD has a fro so that adds to it

If he said 6’9/6’10 he likely isn’t 6’10”. 6’10 LaMarcus Aldridge is taller than he is. And KD measured 6’9” not 6’9.75.

My Guess is 6'9.75", same as KD. Maybe 6'10" at his tallest, but I don't know.

@Junior: I could buy someone being 3/4” less. They measure an hour or less after waking and if Busting a Gut it’s simple. Not to mention NBA combines are 1/4” 1/2 and full increments no 1/8”. So who is to say a guy isn’t 6’9.51 or 6’9.55 and gets rounded up to 6’9.75. They will give whatever benefits the player as money is on the line. While I don’t buy he is that low (6’9”), I could easily buy 6’9.25 or 6’9 3/8 for Drummond. Davis strikes me as 6’9.75 not 6’10 flat. A rookie Davis measured 6’9.25 pre draft meaning he could’ve been something like 6’8.5-.75 at a low depending on how precise. I see Davis having grown an inch. When Kimmel measured him it’s debatable as to whether full 6’11” in shoes. Even if, a sneaker like he had on would put him around 6’9.75. I could buy Davis 6’9.5 to be honest as well. Lamarcus Aldridge measured bang on 6’10” and looks taller. Aldridge looks a full 6’10” with Tim Duncan or Greg Oden

I mean Anthony Davis lowest could be a strong 6'9.75" not more. Chris Bosh look the most solid 6'10 of almost all 6'10 claim players.

@Canson 6'9 is 205.7cm i wouldn't put Drummond 3/4 lower than what he measure. He deserved 6'9 1/4 (206.4cm) at worst 6'9 1/8 (206). I don't see many players were 3/4 off draft height most of them look 1/2 lower at worst. CP3 look 5'11 at first more i look into him he could look 5'11 1/4. Blake Griffin look to measure Busting a Gut 6'8.75" most likely 6'8.5" holding awhile and look between 6'8-6'8 1/4 look a solid 8cm taller than Kobe. Anthony Davis are one lucky fellow who grew an inch for draft height could hold 6'10 or a fraction at his low because most solid 6'10 i would go with Chris Bosh through comparison with many 6'10 claim players.

@Junior: he may be but Drummond measured in the AM as every year since 09 has been. Not sure if he’s that tall. I could buy Howard being 6’9.25 perhaps. But at times 6’9” looks like it’s max for him as well

@Joe: odd thing is that Drummond is listed shorter here. But Lamarcus is definitely a 6’10 range guy. Maybe 6’10 and change but still taller than both.

Or maybe he Bust a Gut and the guy measuring rounded up slightly?

@Rob: another guy who deserves a page is Metta World Peace. He is listed at 6’7” but Reggie Miller says he’s “his height” around 6’5-6’6 on tv then Metta came out here and said he’s 6’5 1/2” after Big Boi inquired about his height. I can believe maybe Christian’s height max of 6’5.25 next to Kobe

@Joe: maybe it’s the camera angle but in other pics Drummond and Davis are the same height max. Drummond if he didn’t grow since the draft, is likely 6’9 1/4-3/8 and Davis was 6’9.25 when drafted so 6’8 3/4-7/8 since they’re morning measurements. To me Davis did grow but more likely just 6’9.5/.75 since he’s barely taller than Boogie who measured 6’9.5 (actual 6’9).

You have to remember NBA pre drafts are in the morning about an hour out of bed. He would likely be closer to 6’9.25 at a low. Maybe he grew and is 6’9.5 but hard to see more when he’s clearly shorter than Lamarcus Aldridge

@Joe: he actually looks slightly taller than Davis or the same height at worst. I think Davis is overlisted and that’s drummond at a low would be 6’9.5ish.. I could say same for AD
