Here is Davis being measured by Kimmel. He is in a thick sneaker so him being right at 6’11 puts him about what Rob lists him. I called him at 6’9.75 right after that video was posted and that was before he even measured 6’9.75

Canson said on 8/Jul/18
@Shane: AD claims he grew an inch and he measured in shoes on jimmy Kimmel. But even there it looked like it could be a hair under 6’11”. I don’t trust Kimmel when he claims his shoes and then some lol. But AD with Lamarcus Aldridge and Andre Drummond (6’10) likely at a low and 6’9.5 respectively both appear taller. It wouldn’t surprise me if 6’9.5-.75 were Davis’s actual barefoot low

@Christian and Canson
I remember seeing him getting measured on Jimmy Kimmel. He was wearing shoes and the camera was a bit lower than him, but it looked like he cleared the 7 foot mark. I’m thinking he’s either a legit 6’10 or perhaps a little less at his low (6’9.75 - 6’9.875) but I doubt he dips into weak 6’10 or strong 6’9 territory. Gigantic dude.
Davis has about 2 cm on Cousins who is a solid 6’9 guy (half inch shorter than Durant)

Why do you use pics where Kawhi is bending? Do you want Lebron to be 6’8 that badly that you stoop to that level? And Kawhi actually looks taller than PG in one of the ones you selected so you choked on your own argument. We know PG is taller

Davis I say his measurement is unreliable he does not want to be a millimeter above 6-10 if you say the measurements in 2019 are reliable then believe that LeBron 6-8.5 and that Howard exactly at Davis' height (in dreams maybe clearly dwight 206 cm) in 2019 also measured George 6-8 Taytum 6-8 Thompson 6-9 Montrezl 6-7 Kawhai 6-7 Jimmy 6-7 You have to believe in all these measurements too Why do you not believe them and Davis' measurement Yes? Because it's convenient for you, it's help you to think that Davis is only 6-9.75 so LeBron will look Lower than 2.03 but even if it's the exact height of Davis still there is no more than 5 cm then LeBron will be 202.5 cm in his worst case. your determination that LeBron is only 6-7 is a joke, we might argue for 203/202.5/202 but 201 is a disconnect from reality dude
Do you believe what comes out of your mouth? I don’t think you do. Here is Butler with 6’8.75 measured Bam Adebayo. And you can’t pick and choose (something you’ve clearly accused Recapa and me of). You don’t believe Davis’s measurement but the rest of them are correct? You don’t believe Howard’s or Durant’s? It seems that the ones that make LeBron 6’8 are accurate, huh? 😂 😂

@Dillon: you and Bagheera both choose pics to support your arguments and you make up height differences. Draymond isn’t even up to Lebron’s eyebrows there. Hint: eyebrow level is 4” or so usually depending on the size of the head (give or take). Obviously we know that he’s not 4” taller let alone more. That just means you chose a pic to favor your argument. Lebron is about 2” taller than Draymond like they’re listed

LeBron is nowhere near 201.5 or lower imo. Too much evidence against it.

He has always looked over 3” taller than Kobe and in recent pics with Westbrook he’s looked over 6” taller consistently, which would make him a strong 6’8” even.
His low throughout the day is at least 6’7.5”, no lower.
I can see his low being 6’7.25 and 6’8 range upon waking
But He’s not taller than Magic and Kuzma is taller than he is as Grey V pointed out with Magic and we all pointed with Kuzma

Davis claimed 6’10 on Kimmel and 6’10” other times. Kimmel measured him 6’11 in sneakers. So he knows he’s around 6’10”. 6’9.75 and 6’10 aren’t much different. Your fabricated excuse of him not wanting to be a mm over 6’10 sounds utterly stupid and just shows that you have an agenda. If he had been 6’10 1/4” I doubt he would’ve cared. So if his measurement is unreliable then so is Lebron’s being LeBron is the same height as Brandon Ingram who you pegged as 201. LeBron knows he’s not 6’8.5”. He’s 6’8.5 in basketball sneakers. So do you believe that Jimmy Butler’s measurement was done improperly? He’s clearly nowhere near 6’7” (doesn’t even look 6’6). But I’m banking on one of the following from you:
1. You revise Ingram’s measurement and call him 6’8”. No he’s 6’7.
2. You make an excuse about the picture. There are no issues with it

Tell me apart from the picture with Davis, did you even look at the other pictures I uploaded ?? if LeBron is only 6-7 then George must be 6-6.75 or 6-7 max as well as Taytum probably only 6-6, and Kevin Love measured 6-8 minimum 6-7.75 LeBron exactly at his height and maybe even tall in cm and also Thompson 6-9 minimum 205 cm LeBron almost at his height look at the picture 1 cm or 2 less
so by your method everyone in the pictures Paul George, Jason Taytum, and Kevin Love are all shorter than LeBron so they should be 6-6 to 6-7 max range and you r claim that Paul George is 6-7.5 so how does that work out. i have clearly shown you that LeBron is taller than Taytum (in 2-3 cm)/ George (1-2 cm)/ Love (1 cm to lebron or same height) and again If you look closely in the picture with Davis and do not count the hair you will see that there is no more than 5 cm there probably your look is incorrect check again

Canson said on 20/Sep/21
@Dillon: nobody low keys believes he’s 6’8 other than you two. He’s clearly shorter than 6’8 Kyle Kuzma who is a legit 6’8”. And when you have people using pics to favor him, making excuses about Davis’s hair, or someone else (your partner in crime) saying Davis’s measurement is faulty, then it’s clear what the agenda is. He even said that Kuzma measured 6’9” and that he has 3 measurements. Either facts aren’t straight or he’s lying. Kuzma has two measurements both at 6’8”. They bumped him to 6’10 just like they bumped Markieff Morris from 6’8 to 6’10 then down to 6’9”. The NBA relaxed the barefoot measurement requirement this past season. Morris clearly didn’t grow as he’s in his 30s so it’s common sense being he was 6’8 when he joined the lakers
Canson said on 20/Sep/21
@Recapa: also Markieff Morris measured 6’7.75 when he was drafted and was listed 6’8 in 2019 when they measurements (barefoot) came out. He wasn’t with the Lakers at the beginning of the 19-20 season and when he joined he was still listed 6’8”. He didn’t get a bump to 6’10” then down to 6’9” until the 2020-21 season. Lol and we can’t use “Morris may have grown” because he’s in his 30s. It’s obvious that they bumped him up to accommodate LeBron just as they did for Kuzma. Morris and Kuzma are both taller than LeBron

Kuzma in his latest measurement 210 he may have grown little and even if not his height it is about 205-206. NBA will not change the heights for all the players who play with LeBron to make him look taller It sounds funny was better they just raised Davis from 2.08 to 2.10.
And what's the problem with giannis especially in the picture you sent me you see that the apex of LeBron's head reaches above giannis eyebrows by an 1.5 cm or 2 even, from there to the apex of giannis' head (Also remember that giannis with high hair so take down another 1.5 or 2 cm of hair thickness) there is no more than 5-6 cm diffrence which means LeBron James 203 cm

@Bagheers: you’re the one believing what you want. Not Recapa. You don’t believe a word coming out of your mouth either. LeBron is clearly over 2” shorter than Anthony Davis. Davis measured 6’9.75 but you don’t want to believe that do you? And Kuzma grew 2”? No he didn’t. He measured 6’8” in 2019 at age 24 so how did he grow? You really do not believe what you’re saying

New pic with Magic Johnson. Both in the 6'7" range. I'm more impressed Magic didn't lose much height from his prime.
Magic is still a bit shorter than Bird now, who clearly lost height and is around 6'8", so I honestly don't think LeBron would be 6'8", when he's also shorter than Kuzma.
Maybe in the morning, but I think people value afternoon height in this website, if I'm not mistaken.

You're absolutely right it seems inconvenient to some people that LeBron will be 6-8 and I do not really understand why. there are so many pictures near a variety of players proving that LeBron is in this range, also about 6-8.5 I would not be surprised if it is accurate, but by all opinions it should be in the range of 203 cm

Davis from years ago does not want to play 5 and does not want to set at a height above 208 cm so if LeBron's measurement about 205 cm is not reliable then it makes sense that Davis' measurement is also unreliable as well as Dwight Howard measured with them and it turned out that he and Davis are the same height and clearly davis is taller then dwight. there are a lot of players who are really 201cm tall and u can see that LeBron is a little taller than them so there is no chance that LeBron is only 200 or 201cm as you claim look at pictures from the last few years especially since he moved to the Lakers. And you will see that LeBron is taller than Paul George clearly, just as LeBron is taller than Tatum, who is also 201 cm only.
Davis' hair causes confusion and it seems to be slightly taller, the position that LeBron gets is little above Davis eyebrows in the pic u upload here and from there to the tip of Davis' head there is no more than 5 cm his head is relatively small and the hair causes confusion look closely. So I repeat again I think Davis is 208-209 cm range tall no more and the difference between him and LeBron is 5 cm and no more ( again Davis' hair makes him look taller and it supposedly dwarfs LeBron in about 1.5-2 cm)
Even if Davis 207.5 cm LeBron will be in the 202.5-203 area your determination that he is only 201 cm just does not make sense
Canson said on 18/Sep/21
@Recapa and Viper: correct. And look at the pic I posted below. All players there look their measured heights prior to the pre draft. See Jaylen Brown who measured 6’5.25”. He looks about 6’5 or so next to Kuzma as well. Tatum is overlisted and when they listed Ingram at 6’7 in the 2019-20 season they were right as he’s shorter than Kuzma. Ingram is the same height as LeBron. Tatum was likely a hair under 6’7 like Viper said and like the measurement Rob alluded to said (he grew 3/4” to get to 6’7 5/8”). If he grew its to 6’7 flat or a hair over maybe
viper said on 18/Sep/21
Yeah there is no way Lebron is 6-7.5 afternoon
He's 6-7-6-7.25
Rob's listing was perfect
Canson said on 18/Sep/21
Bagheera said on 18/Sep/21
@viper, Kuzma measured 6'10 but even if not he clearly 6'9 so LeBron looks like 1 inch shorter then Kuzma... 6'8 for LeBron looks ok at lowest 6'7.75
Kuzma is 6’8”. That’s what he measured at the draft and that’s what he measured in 2019 when they allegedly measured the players barefoot. He was listed 6’8” all throughout the 2019-20 season. He became 6’10” in 20-21 to accommodate LeBron being 6’9” when we all know he is not. No he didn’t grow 2”. He’s clearly 6’8 next to Anthony Davis. It’s even debatable Kuzma is under 6’8 being Pre Draft measurements are held early in the morning. But I’ll say he’s 6’8” and that LeBron is 6’7.25 like when drafted and no PG is not shorter than LeBron he often looks taller
viper said on 18/Sep/21
Kuzma is 6-8. He ain't no 6-10 lol

LeBron James clearly 1 inch area taller then Paul George 6'7.5, Jayson Tatum 6'7.5 and Brandon Ingram 6'7 so LeBron 6'8 at the lowest and can see him 6'8.5 or 6'8.25 i think 204 cm to LeBron is fair today he slightly get taller from his darft at 6'7.25 so now 6'8.25/5 make sense

Also LeBron is taller than 6’7 1/2” Tatum.
Tatum is not 6’7.5”. Look at the pic below. Rob has him overlisted and it’s touch and go with Tatum and LeBron as to who is taller. See Rob has them listed the same here

Canson said on 16/Sep/21
@Recapa: yea I can see as high as 6’7.25 but as low as 6’7” flat. I don’t see an afternoon 6’7.5 though. I agree with you. I’d give PG that possibly. The only apprehension is that PG can barely edge Kawhi at times (1.5” vs 2”) but maybe it’s the pics we have to choose from. Then again sometimes Kawhi pulls off 6’6 but my guess is 6’5.75”

Believe me I’m not one of the guys that thinks lebron is 6’9. Rob is a smart man for considering his posture though I will say that
This is what I said below: and yes it is at least 2”. That’s not an opinion either. It’s not less than 2” between them. I’m sorry if you misinterpreted something but it’s not 1.5” between them is what I was saying. Kanter on the other hand could be a morning measurement at 6’9.75 and only be 6’9.25 or a bit over. Yao is 7-8 used the same photo with them and he tried to say they were the same when they are nowhere near it

Rob should give Ingram a page, since people will believe his supposed 6-8 measurement

Lebron's shoes are certainly thicker looking than Ingram
I think Lebron is getting a little footwear boost advantage imo
Both are around 6-7
Canson said on 13/Sep/21
@Mori: I’ve seen other pics where Ingram is taller and then they look the same height. But Kuzma has as much on Lebron as he does on Ingram imho. If anything maybe it’s 1/4” and Lebron is his draft listing and Ingram 6’7

@Canson
We don’t know for sure if they didn’t or did grow. It’s very possible they did seeing as they were both in the 18-20 range when drafted. I’m just saying LeBron has an easy 3 inches on Manning so I don’t see less than 6’8”. Kobe also appears to be taller than Manning tbh.
He didn’t grow Dillon. He’s not 3” taller than Kobe. Kobe was 6’4.75”. You also disregarded that Olympic picture where they’re all lined up. Don’t drink the Johnson Kool aid 😂 . Johnson thought every athlete grew then even when refuted he made excuses saying he estimated based on 2-3 hours out of bed.

Canson said on 9/Sep/21
@RJT and Recapa: even in the video here That Rob made, LeBron is at least 2.5” shorter than Davis (Davis’s stance is actually wider this time) and Durant even appears over 2” taller
Click Here
Canson said on 9/Sep/21
@RJT: the Olympic pic may suggest otherwise though. Prince is taller than Boozer and he is 6’8”. Look at Prince with Rasheed Wallace or with Howard or Bosh. And That’s not 1/4” it’s more a CM or half. LeBron looks 1CM or half inch shorter than Boozer. LeBron could be 6’7 flat up to 6’7.5 in pics imho. I think 6’7 to 6’7.25 though. I don’t think he’s 6’7.5 though. Look at Markieff Morris. He measured 6’7.75 at the combine and he actually looks taller than LeBron most of the time. They listed him at 6’8” in 2019 like Kuzma (prior to him joining the Lakers) and then 6’10” In 2020-2021 in the beginning and 6’9 like LeBron later. My guess is that he’s a half inch taller than LeBron. I doubt LeBron is taller than 6’7.25” in reality
Hard to tell from just this pic but others suggest him being taller than LeBron as well. If they listed him taller initially it means he probably is as they adjusted Kuzma’s since he’s taller in reality
@Recapa: he’s even shorter than Markieff Morris who measured 6’7.75”, my guess is he may be 6’7.5 afternoon height while LeBron is prob around 201. LeBron looks 6’7 with 6’9.75 Anthony Davis. Rob overlisted Davis because he thought KD was 1/2” shorter but looks like they’re similar really. Davis may have 1/4 to 3/8” maybe
Click Here
FriedChicken said on 9/Sep/21
I'm more of fan of the previous listing but this one isn't impossible if he grew a quarter inch since 18. This is the most he can be though, he did look this listing with Big Show before.
Imma personally stick with 6'7 1/4 with a chance of 6'7 1/2.
Canson said on 9/Sep/21
@Recapa: well said as always!
@RJT: not sure what time that measurement occurred with Chandler but I will say that some guys who are measured in the afternoon may still lie down prior to it. I’m sure they’re instructed to do so but I tend to agree that Chandler looks around 6’11.5”. Maybe at times he can look a strong 6’11” (6’11.25 perhaps) but with KD or LeBron he looks 6’11.5”. Also Amare Stoudemire measured 6’8.5 which seems to be his afternoon. I doubt he’s 6’9.25” but 6’8.75 or 6’9” max. His 6’9.25 was at practice I believe in the morning from what it said
RJT said on 9/Sep/21
@Canson
6'7.5" would be Bron's tallest while 6'7.25" his normal low imo.
Chandler was measured 6'11.5" back in 2001 when they measured at afternoon and he has at least 2" on KD, so those people who still say KD is 7ft need to see this picture lol.
Neither guys are 7 ft barefoot but Chandler is the one who can be called it.
Canson said on 9/Sep/21
@Dillon: please don’t drink the same Koolaid that Johnson drinks/drank. Players don’t grow that often after being drafted. You said that Boozer and LeBron both did

Thorfinn said on 8/Sep/21
Dillon Rice, what’s interesting about those photos you linked is that those were before that period of time last year where he apparently grew. So maybe now with his new growth in height he’s very close to Lebron.

I highly doubt LeBron is taller than Tatum but Tatum looks 6’7” with Kuzma. He’s overlisted. Likely that if one is taller that it’s minimal like 1/4”

I’m not saying it isn’t 2 inches I’m saying it’s maybe 2 inches! Stop using words like at least too boost your argument! Just say that’s 2 inches don’t use the word at least because you could be wrong! 6’9.5 for Kanter and 6’7.5 for lebron is good! Also all of those cavs pics with love lebron and Irving are fraud! The media tried to portray it as the guard the wing and the big! There are so many photos of that media day where lebron is purposely slouching
@Vlakit: you got offended for no reason. Neither of us said that so don’t put words in our mouths please. And you clearly have an agenda. How are the pics fraud? Sound like you’re making excuses to make LeBron taller from my perspective
Canson said on 7/Sep/21
@RJT: that’s a good picture of them. It tells a lot about other players’ heights too. Such as Kevin Love not being 6’7.75”. He’s got 2 inches or so on Kobe. I’ll give him 6’7.25” just based on it and LeBron with KD is about 2.5 imho. You can see Durant is almost right in the middle of Tyson Chandler and LeBron in terms of height but Chandler has about 4.5” on LeBron perhaps. As for Melo and LeBron, it’s about an inch so the 6’7.25 listing fits better
But based on the pic:
Chandler 6’11.5
Durant 6’9.25-.5
LeBron 6’7 or 6’7.25
Westbrook 6’2.25
D Will looks 6’0-6’1
Iguadala 6’5.5 maybe 6’5.75 max
Kobe 6’4.75
Love looks 6’7.25 tops and only has about 1.5” on Iguadala
Harden is 6’3.5
CP 5’11
Davis looks more lower 6’9 range here but he grew
Melo 6’6-6’6.25

@Canson
I’m pretty sure Boozer has grown since then as he was only 20 when he was measured at 6’7.75”. Yes most people don’t grow at that age, but some do. I myself grew a tiny bit in my early twenties. We can’t always assume they haven’t grown since draft just because they were over 18.
Also looking at picture after picture with different people, LeBron seems to be above 6’7” pretty clearly. Anthony Davis only has about a couple inches on him at nearly 6’10”.
Davis has almost 3”. Also see Kuzma with LeBron. He’s taller and he’s 6’8”
Click Here
Looks to be as tall or taller than Kevin Love who’s nearly 6’8”.

He has 2 inches on Newton. Newton called him 6’7” himself. Maybe it’s closer to 2.5 because Bewton was measured earlier in the day
Click Here
He’s easily 3 inches taller than 6’5.25” Peyton Manning. This to me is the nail in the coffin for LeBron being 6’7”. Anyone who says there’s only 2 inches between LeBron and Manning in this picture is just wrong.
He is not 3” taller than Peyton
Click Here
@Dillon: Boozer has not grown. Most think he’s only 6’7”. Here is Kurt Rambis calling him 6’7” and that he’s short for a power forward. And look at the lineup of team USA. He’s clearly shorter than 6’8” TayShaun Prince. LeBron is only about 2” taller than Manning. Look at Peyton with Magic. And keep in mind Manning measured that earlier in the day possibly. He isn’t under 6’5” but he’s shorter than JJ Watt is

I’m pretty sure Boozer has grown since then as he was only 20 when he was measured at 6’7.75”. Yes most people don’t grow at that age, but some do. I myself grew a tiny bit in my early twenties. We can’t always assume they haven’t grown since draft just because they were over 18.
Also looking at picture after picture with different people, LeBron seems to be above 6’7” pretty clearly. Anthony Davis only has about a couple inches on him at nearly 6’10”.
Click Here
Looks to be as tall or taller than Kevin Love who’s nearly 6’8”.
Click Here
Looks to be nearly as tall as 6’9”25”-6’9.75” Kanter.
Click Here
He has 3 inches on 6’4.75”-6’5” Cam Newton.
Click Here
He’s easily 3 inches taller than 6’5.25” Peyton Manning. This to me is the nail in the coffin for LeBron being 6’7”. Anyone who says there’s only 2 inches between LeBron and Manning in this picture is just wrong.

Canson said on 3/Sep/21
@Editor Rob: I get it. But the best figure is the pre draft measurement he initially received. 6’7.25” which is what you had him at before. We at least know he can measure that although not sure it’s a low for him
Canson said on 3/Sep/21
@Dillon: how is LeBron 6’8? Or over?
Click Here
@Editor Rob: he looks 6’7 here. He’s noticeably shorter than 6’7.75 measured Carlos Boozer and he’s not 3 cm taller than Carmelo
Editor Rob
yeah, with most celebs, I'm trying to weigh up the whole picture and get a figure I think they can measure. I seen him look from 6ft 7 to nearly 6ft 8.
Dillon Rice 6'4 1/2" said on 2/Sep/21
@Rob Nice upgrade for Lebron! I still think he’s 6’8.25” or so but this listing is better.
Canson said on 2/Sep/21
@Editor Rob: 6’7.5” is too high with Kevin Love who people say is only 6’7” and Carmelo who is 6’6.25. I was just saying I could see an argument for that but not 6’8”. Really, I’d drop him to 6’7” flat if anything.
Editor Rob
Well I looked again a few times over the last year to see if I thought 7.5 was possible, and from all I've seen I'm thinking there is a decent chance of it.
recapa said on 2/Sep/21
@Rob, i dont know what you are thinking he is not as tall as magic johnson the older listing was better besides he even measured at that

Canson said on 1/Sep/21
@Editor Rob: I could see the argument for 6’7.5 maybe but not 6’8”. Really 6’7” though seeing him with Boozer and love
Editor Rob
I think giving Lebron 7.5 is fair for him.

@Vlakit,you are trpping if you dont think that isnt at least 2 inches shorter .the listing is good enough for lebron.

Hey rob how did lebron get measured at 6’8.5 barefoot
Editor Rob
The same way I got 5ft 9.75 for my

Is he really 6ft 8.5 barefoot....at most I'd have thought 6ft 8
Canson said on 30/Aug/21

@canson you are wrong that’s not 2 inches just because you say it’s 2 inches! Here is another angle where kanter is closer to the camera! 1:30 in the video

If you look carefully it is. When they walk away it is 2”
Dillon Rice said on 30/Aug/21
I truly believe Lebron is every bit of 6’8”. I’m not a Lebron fan by any means, I’ve always rooted against him and I have no agenda. I’m just saying how I see it. He’s nearly as tall as bare minimum 6’9.25” Kanter and there’s countless times where he looks above 6’7”. By the way, this link where he supposedly mentions his height as 6’7” is actually “fictionalized satire” according to the website. Lebron never said that quote, it’s just fictional writing.

This is lebron with 6’9.75 measured enes kanter. As we all know that is most likely a morning measurement so we’ll call kanter 6’9.5 or 6’9.25 worse case.
Lebron is only an inch or at most an inch and a half shorter! I think lebron is a lot closer to 6’7.75
Canson said on 19/Aug/21
@Mori: Gordon may be more of a normal measurement meaning post morning. PG may be hovering in the 201-202 range. Gordon also measured 6’7.75”. Then again maybe it’s PG’s stance
Canson said on 19/Aug/21
@Mori: Love appears taller than Lebron. Then again maybe what they say about Love is true that he’s only 6’7”. I’d say that at worst they’re similar. I doubt LeBron is really taller

And look at PG with 2 chainz who's like 6'4 1/4 he's looking up to PG looks like a good 3 inches
Click Here was skinnier back then though so maybe that makes him appear taller coz he can look 6'7 1/2 at times.
Canson said on 18/Aug/21
@Mori: depends on the pic. In that one LeBron is favored. I’d say it’s touch and go. Lebron can look up to 6’7.5 at times but others he looks 6’7”. PG may be 6’7.25 worst case tho
mori said on 18/Aug/21
@Canson bro tbh I’m not even sure if PG is taller than LeBron because like when there’s actually a good camera angle LeBron always looks taller.

Gotta be the footwear but LeBron generally looks taller than PG at times by .5 inch
Canson said on 17/Aug/21
@Mori: probably just camera angle and his build. Kuzma is taller than LeBron. Kuz is 6’8”. Not sure if you saw the video Rob posted once with them joking at practice about their heights. Kuzma was taller even in the video
Canson said on 17/Aug/21
@Mori: probably just camera angle. Kuzma is taller than LeBron. Kuz is 6’8”.
mori said on 16/Aug/21
im not even kidding but I swear lebron got taller like he just looks bigger than he was back in 2017/2018..
Look at him with legit 6'8" Kuzma:
Click Here
yes he's standing in front but still that's only giving him like .5 inches
Here with 6'7 1/2 Paul George (Rob's listing), George isn't stop straight but still even if he did there's no way he would be taller than lebron there:
Click Here
And here with Jeff Green who I think is probably a little more than 6'7":
Click Here
Thing with LeBron is that his build is bigger than most 6'7"-6'9" guys so idk if that plays a role into him seeming taller.
Him and Paul George are definitely very similar in height, at times either one looks taller than the other. In the bubble George seemed taller when they played each other that's the most recent I recall.

Rob how come lebron looks close to the same height and sometimes taller than Kevin Durant who’s listed at 6’10. Also He looks 1.5 to 2 inches shorter than Giannis
Editor Rob
I'm not sure I agree with that, but of course sometimes 6ft 8 looks possible for him.
Canson said on 8/Aug/21
@Duhon and Chaos Control: sounds more like it came from his draft bio and profile. He was actually 6’7.25” tho not 6’7.5”. It sounded like it was from 2003. “Lebron James has a NBA body. 6’7 1/2 240+“. I think from all we’ve seen over the years, even using the afternoon height which I go with, he’s 6’7” flat worst case. Rob could have his Lunchtime height here or be within 1/8”. He probably loses 1” or .9” at worst. I only give him the flat mark because other 6’7 range guys can edge him that I doubt are lows like Kevin Love. He looks more like a 6’7.5

@ChaosControl could be it. This site is becoming quite mainstream as THE source for celebrity heights, no longer IMBD. I could easily picture Hollywood producers/writers consulting it.
Canson said on 7/Aug/21
@Chaos Control: yea he was always billed 6’8” until 2019-20. The 6’7.5 quote that he’s referring to is when he was drafted. That was shown when he was leading up to the draft. I posted earlier today the link. He actually measured 6’7.25”. Now in his case he may be near that at a low as he really does usually look a 6’7” guy. I would give him 6’7” flat probably but no less these days

Canson said on 6/Aug/21
Unless Love grew which I doubt 6’7.5 looks too high for him. Maybe that’s earlier in the day and they used it. Maybe it explains why he’s listed 6’8.5”. He looks 6’7 next to Love or Durant or Melo

Another key factor is that Markieff Morris who measured 6’7.75 was listed 6’8 when the “we wish they were official” barefoot measurements were posted in 2019 when he was still with the Pistons. He signed with LA later during 19-20 season. He was still listed 6’8 and LeBron 6’9” yet Morris always looks taller. Keep in mind Kuzma was measured and listed 6’8 in the same timeframe and only became 6’10 during the 20-21 season. Kuzma measured 6’8” when he was drafted. So key in on the fact that they weren’t willing to piss Lebron off by lowering his listing back to 6’8 or even 6’7 which fits better with those two at 6’8”, so they inflated Kuzma to 6’10 at the beginning of the season and Morris to 6’9” during the season. They did this to keep up with the LeBron lie aka keeping up with the Jamses. Look closely and both guys are taller than Lebron. Even Kuzma under the shoe measurements prior to 2019 was listed 6’9” not 6’10”. Hmmm???? How does a guy measure taller “barefoot” than he does in shoes? How did LeBron grow to 6’8.5” 2 months shy of 35? Surely Miami and Cleveland had to have known he was 6’8.5 barefoot so why wasn’t he listed 6’9 or 6’10”??? They really didn’t measure him?? No way 😂. So instead they corrected the problem with lies. LeBron is 6’8.5 so we make Kuzma 6’9.5 and Morris 6’9” 😂 😂 😂. Kuzma at 6’9 would’ve made more sense being he’s easily over 6’8 out of bed and so Is Morris. A stretch but a slip of the tape and we pas them off as 6’8.5. That’s the spirit. Then LeBron could’ve stayed 6’8” which would’ve made a lot more sense. I mean how many players actually “grew”? When I say “grew” I don’t mean from their pre draft. I mean from their previous in shoes listing? Boban Marjanovic, LeBron, KD?? And Kuzma bucked the norms by doing it even later but remember Tyrus Thomas mysteriously became 6’10 in Chicago when he was initially listed 6’8” and measured 6’7 range. Even Kevin Love the big height fraud, lost 2” and is at a more respectable 6’8” now. He’s not 6’8 afternoon height and I’d be surprised if he made 6’7.75 like he measured. Probably best case 6’7.5”. But The only exposure to these lies is that Anthony Davis doesn’t want to be 6’11 and never did and only measured 6’9.75 (his true height) so he’s staying at 6’10 being he’s the other superstar and the future of that team. He’s a Power Forward In his mind not a Center. Don’t want to piss him off either. That’s the pickle coach Frank Vogel faces. Cave into Lebron’s demands of being compared to Magic although Magic edged him out in pics (explains why they used 6’8.5 instead of 6’9 😂 😂. They’d catch him in a lie at 6’9) and keep him listed 6’9” while upgrading Davis to 6’11”? Or keep Davis 6’10 from 6’9.75 and list LeBron 6’7.25 and give him his “tall morning” courtesy round up and call him 6’8”? 🤔 🤔?? Which one do we keep happy without making it obvious we are lying? Or do we continue down this path and just say they’re only 1” apart (1.25” when we get into specifics) and accept the fact that it’s the greatest inch you’ll ever see in your lifetime? Kudos to Rob for calling it like it is

He definitely isn’t looking it next to 6’8” Kyle Kuzma who is taller. He looks a flat 6’7” sometimes and can look 6’7.5 like Rob said at times. While someone his size has more potential for shrinkage throughout the day, he may be consistent with that. 6’7.25 isn’t terrible but he may dip to 6’7”

Hi Rob how tall would you say Devin Booker is?
Editor Rob
could see him under 6ft 5
Canson said on 10/Jul/21
@Viper: I wonder if he grew even just a fraction. I don’t think 6’6” but he may look 6’5 at times. Miles Bridges is around 6’5 and they look similar. I would say Devin Booker is 6’4 or at best 1/4” taller and around my height. Oddly enough Crowder was either under measured at the Nets camp or grew from that. In fact, he measured out an entire inch shorter than his combine both in shoes (6’5.5) and barefoot (6’3.75). If anything 6’4.75” is the highest id give him though. When I said grew, it could’ve been that he was measured earlier in the day at the combine and gained a fraction. But yea he does look taller. I remember someone on some site say they met him and that at a little over 6’2, Crowder looked to have 2” on him. He explicitly said Crowder was a little over 6’4” after that

It really is laughable that people think LeBron is 6'9" and only within one inch of 6'10" KD. KD's not even a full 6'10", and he is much taller than LeBron.
Canson said on 20/Jun/21
@Bobby Curls: all clear it with ease first thing out of bed and maintain at least 6’8.75 in shoes for a measurement an hour out of bed. PG has the greatest chance imho of being possibly close to 6’10 in shoes out of bed. He likely is the tallest of the four followed by Ingram and or Lebron. PG could very well be 6’9.5 or 6’9.75 out of bed in basketball sneaks. Maybe that’s why people wanted to say he grew when he didn’t. I also saw where Danny Granger assessed their heights once. He said that one is 6’8 and one is 6’9”. Not sure which is which being they measured about the same. PG was 6’7.75 at the combine and Granger 6’7.5”

I may be upgrading Tatum too much, but I'd give him a full 6'7 measurement, probably even a hair over. He held up pretty well with Al Horford and looked noticeably taller than Gordon Hayward. Tatum really does seem like one of the few NBA players that actually grew after the draft.
I've seen Tatum claim 6'9 before. I'd guess he gets 6'8 range in the morning and can clear 6'9 early in the day with sneakers. That 6'10 claim from Brad Stevens was probably Tatum busting-a-gut in the morning with thick shoes and measuring around 6'9.5.
Side note: I wonder how Brandon Ingram got that 6'8 barefoot measurement and 6'9.5 shoes measurement at the 2015 Nike Hoops Summit-

Cade Cunningham is another guy coming up that may be getting height inflation. Cunningham will likely be the top pick in this upcoming draft, and he is listed at 6'8, but was measured at 6'5 barefoot in 2017 and listed as 6'6 for his final year of high school. Oklahoma State said he measured 6'7.5 barefoot and he is listed at 6'8. If you look at pictures of Cunningham with his older brother, who was listed at both 6'9 and 6'10 when he played in college, Cade looks 6'5 range:

I honestly think that 6'7.5 measurement is because of his hair.

@Viper: who would you say is taller between Ingram and Tatum? I’d say they’re about the same. Rob would probably list Tatum and Ingram at the same height as he has Lebron listed. Maybe worst case 6’7” since Lebron can look slightly taller than Tatum sometimes and being Ingram received a 6’7” listing before being bumped to 6’8”. Tatum looks 6’7 with Kuzma. The least I see is 6’6 7/8” like he supposedly measured before

He was bullied and I'm all for unloading the clip after 20 years. He wasn't a bust with how long he was in the league, especially with the money he made.

@Viper: here he is with Kobe. I would believe his listed height of 6’11” before his claim of 6’9”. That’s not to say he’s really 6’11” but he never looks as low as 6’9”. IMHO at least 6’10”. Maybe only 6’10” as in other pics it’s around 5-5.5” between Brown and Kobe. I saw somewhere 6’11.5 in shoes

@Canson,the listing is the max that i would give to lebron .he looks at least 3 if not 4 inches shorter than 6ft10 1/4 chris bosh.6ft7 flat for me.

@Waterlover: Lebron can look 6’7.5 at times but that’s a best case. 6’7.25 may be spot on in some pics
Canson said on 16/May/21
@Waterlover: it’s the other way around with Matthews. He is actually listed 6’4 and was previously listed 6’5”. He measured 6’4 or 6’4.25 at the combine. He is pretty accurate given height varies throughout the day and given the fact that he may be 6’3.75 afternoon height so it’s only a roundup. I agree on everyone else though. Not sure about Caruso. If his is an afternoon measurement, he would’ve been 6’4.5 or higher and gotten the roundup too. But a lot of guys simply lost an inch from their previous listings. An example is Carmelo Anthony and then you have other guys like DeAngelo Russell and Jordan Clarkson who all were 6’6.25 and 6’3.25 and are now 6’7 and 6’4 (both Clarkson and Russell). Melo may have been an afternoon 6’6.25 as he looked near it up close but Russell and Clarkson weren’t. They would be under 6’3” in the afternoon. Melo could pull 6’6.5 or even maybe 6’6 7/8 early morning after an hour and 6’6.5 or .75 after 2 perhaps so he could be given 6’7”. It’s easy to tell Melo isn’t 6’7” tho. Scottie pippen is slightly taller than he is and Pippen is shorter than Magic who measured 6’7.5 in his prime. Magic is 60 today. Magic has a slight camera angle with Pippen but it looks like at least an inch. Don’t know about footwear or orthotics. Melo looks 6’6 with Pippen imho but in other pics he looks a hair over and he certainly isn’t under the mark in person. You probably see where Lebron inflated Davis to 6’11” in the video where he said he’s 6’9” (the quote Rob used above). It’s clear Davis is close to 3” taller and he’s 6’9.75”. They inflated everyone else just to accommodate Lebron. You mentioned Tucker and Schroeder. Both listings are a joke same with Morris. He was listed 6’8” last year like Kuzma was. Both were given 6’10” initially this season and Morris was dropped to 6’9” later in the season.
Morris measured 6’7.75 and that could be early in the day. I have 6’7.5 max for him and Lebron 6’7 flat. Then Kuzma 6’8” and KCP 6’4 or 6’4.25”.

LeBron's clearly shorter than an 80+ year old Bill Russell with bad posture, who has lost around .75 to 1 inch of height from his peak days (6'9 5/8 in his earlier day). Russell is probably at best, 6'8.75" today seeing him with 6'9.5" KD.

It blows my mind that people really think LeBron's 6'9". Do people seriously think he is 6'10.5" ish in shoes? If he was really that tall, people would refer to him as a "7 footer", like they do KD. I have a pair of LeBron's, and they add around 1.5 inches of height. With an insole, you could probably get a fraction more out of them. Even when LeBron's wears his basketball shoes that give him a ton of height, he still does not look tall enough to even be a legit 6'8"
Waterlover968 said on 12/May/21
Besides AD, Gasol, and Drummond, the Lakers are clearly listing shoe heights and inflating their entire roster. Harrell got a 6'7" barefoot measurement at the combine, but he looks 6'6ish on the court. Matthews is now magically listed at 6'5", where he was listed 6'4" his whole career (looks at best, 6'3ish range). Kuzma's 6'10" listing is just laughable...
Combine barefoot measurements:
LeBron: 6'7.25"
Kuzma: 6'8"
Tucker: 6'2.5"
Schroeder: 6'1"
Caruso: 6'4.25"
Kostas: 6'9"
KCP: 6'4.5"
Morris: 6'7.75"
Lakers listed heights:
LeBron: 6'9"
Kuzma: 6'10"
Tucker: 6'4"
Schroeder: 6'3"
Caruso: 6'5"
Kostas: 6'10"
KCP: 6'5"
Morris: 6'9"
Literally, almost every single player is being inflated to a pretty significant point on their roster. Do people really think 8 players on the Lakers roster really grew between 1-2 inches, when most of these guys were drafted at 18-21, when most people are down growing? It is rare to grow a significant amount at this age, and I don't think people realize how much 1-2 inches of height actually is. AD looks like one of the few rare players that actually grew after he was drafted, but to think this many people on one roster grew significantly is just ridiculous.

My guesses for out of bed and afternoon:
LeBron 6’8/6’7
Kobe 6’5.5/6’4.75
MJ 6’5.25/6’4.5
Steph: 6’2.25/6’1.5
Klay: 6’6/6’5.25
Draymond: 6’6/6’5.25
Anthony Davis: 6’10.75/6’9.75
Kevin love: 6’8.5/6’7.5
Beal: 6’3 3/4/6’3
Russ: 6’3/6’2.25
DWade: 6’3.5/6’2 75 (max 6’3)

No way the trainer, or whoever is measuring him, is gonna tell Lebron to take off his shoes.
This may be one of the best written and said statements on this site. I agree Bobby! Also notice the other superstars for the most part remained their listed heights. Harden (should be listed 6’4) as a 6’3.5 guy, Curry (should be 6’2 listed) 6’1.5 afternoon guy, and others stated the same. Then a couple lost an inch. Anthony Davis did but he didn’t want to be listed 6’11” to begin with and Kyrie lost an inch. The only superstar caliber player to lose more was Bradley Beal who lost 2”. I actually think Lebron would get 6’8” out of bed tho and 6’7 afternoon/evening
Robbe said on 6/May/21

@Canson: I don't even know if Lebron can crack 6'8 in the morning to be fair. He probably showed up to his height measurement with his thick basketball shoes on. No way the trainer, or whoever is measuring him, is gonna tell Lebron to take off his shoes.

@Robbe: I don’t quite rule 6’11-6’11.25 out for chandler
Canson said on 5/May/21
@Robbe: I’d go with those estimates. I still have Lebron at 6’7” flat but maybe 6’7 1/8 is fair. Kevin Love I always had as a strong 6’7” guy maybe 6’7.5” and maybe KD 6’9 3/8 or 6’9.5
Robbe said on 5/May/21
@Waterlover968, Kevin Love is tiptoeing in that team photo.
Click Here
Love is only hair taller than Lebron, at the most 0.25in. Here we can see them on the height chart. I believe Tyson Chandler is 6'11.5 range barefoot, so the chart is based on his height. Kevin Durant appears 6'9.5 there, and Lebron 6'7.25. Like said, Love is tiptoeing there, lol he almost hits the 6'9 line
Click Here
So, Lebron is listed pretty much bang on by the siteowner. No need for upgrade.
Canson said on 4/May/21
@Waterlover968: that’s unfortunately how it goes on this site. The thought that Lebron “grew” is ridiculous. A lot of people on this site, In the NBA circles, sports media, and just in general are too quick to tout him as being taller than he is just to make his accomplishments more impressive. It’s the opposite for someone like Barkley where they say he’s downplaying his height when in reality, he is using a barefoot height 6’4 5/8 (keep in mind height varies throughout the day and he actually claims 6’5” so he may be under 6’4.5” at points of the day in reality) whereas Lebron uses a height in shoes earlier in the day and rounds up. He may be 6’8.5 in shoes in the afternoon pending thickness of the shoe. That’s how it goes though, taller = better to most people so they needlessly inflate people’s height to where it actually gets a bit ridiculous because they’re technically lying and when you call it that, it’s like you’re starting something when you’re simply telling the truth and calling it for what it is. Anything beyond barefoot is a lie. Could LeBron hit 6’8” in the morning? Perhaps but not 6’8.5” no way.
So your examples:
Not sure KCP is really even 6’4.5 afternoon height. Maybe 6’4.25” but he can look 6’4 to tell you the truth
Griffin was documented and proven to be a morning measurement. Rob has already reduced him to 6’8.25” but he’s probably max 6’8” if that seeing him with 6’9.75 DeAndre Jordan
Kuzma may be 6’8” flat afternoon height. He looks pretty tall
Waterlover968 said on 1/May/21
@A.E.R.O The videos you showed us were actually bad examples of looking at height. The cameramen were significantly shorter than the basketball players, and the camera was pointed at an upwards angle. This will create an optical illusion of a shorter person looking close in height to a taller person. Also, videos are not the best way to determine height, because there are way too many variables involved. People are moving, leaning in to hug, changing posture, and you don't know what shoes they are wearing either.
KCP was measured 6'4.5" barefoot in the 2013 draft, and LeBron is certainly not 4 inches taller than him in this photo:
Click Here This is at the most, a 2.75" inch height difference. No optical illusion at all, and KCP is actually dropping a little bit of height by leaning in.
Here is LeBron being not far off from an inch shorter than 6'8" combine measured Kuzma:
Click Here Again, no funky camera angles. Just a straight on shot.
You say that there is only an inch difference between LeBron and Durant? Again, no way man.
Click Here Again, here is a shot where it is straight on and they are right next to each other. KD is clearly about 2.5" inches taller than LeBron. Also, funnily enough, LeBron is clearly shorter than a guy in the picture that was not even measured 6'8" barefoot. Kevin Love was measured 6'7.75" at the combine, and he is clearly taller than LeBron. You can look at any photo of them online and tell 6'7.75" Love is clearly taller. A true 6'8.5" measured Griffin, is looking significantly taller than LeBron in this photo, by at least 1.5 inches.
So how is LeBron 6'8.5", when 6'8" measured Kuzma and 6'7.75" Love, are clearly taller than him?
BobbyCurls said on 1/May/21
Bosh and Tim Duncan are substantially taller than Lebron and have to drop a good bit of height to hug him. I'd say Bosh and Duncan both have Lebron by around 3 inches in those videos linked below.
Here is 6'9-6'10 KD and 6'5 RJ Barrett looking very close in height:

I don't think a video or photo of two players hugging is very indicative of definitive height.
Canson said on 1/May/21
@A.E.R.O: here Is Lebron with Bosh. This is a better pic than what you provided. Bosh is 6’10.25”. That’s at least 3” difference between them which is how they’re listed in their pre drafts. By the way Durant has minimum 2” in the pic you posted

I’ve noticed that there are many inconsistent examples being provided with thanks to angles as well as a lack of video evidence to pinpoint an actual definitive height. Here are some examples of optimal angles as well as videos where LeBron looks a legit 6’8.5” height:
LeBron clearly within 1.5” of minimum 6’10” Chris Bosh last year:

These are clear videos that don’t suffer from any factors that could affect a clear understanding of LeBron’s height, this is different when it comes to loads of hand-picked photos that I’ve seen however. There’s no doubt about it, LeBron is a legitimate 6’8.5” in the morning at least, he’s 6’8” at the absolute lowest. This doesn’t address his height when he was younger than 21-22 as we don’t know if he grew or not for certain but it does seem that he grew half an inch.
Canson said on 27/Apr/21
@Viper: that’s how it goes unfortunately. I walked into a doctor’s office a couple weeks ago and the doctor told me that he eyeballed me when I walked past his height chart on his door that he eyeballed me at least 6’5”. I told him I’m 6’4” and he said he thought I was taller. I took my shoes off and stood right next to it and he said you’re right. A hair over 6’4”. He was guessing my shoe height and I explained it to him. It was not a doctor I usually see so he didn’t know me. I told him that he needs to deduct height for shoes and can’t rely on that
viper said on 27/Apr/21
There are 6-2 guys claiming 6-5 lol
Canson said on 27/Apr/21
@Oroginal Anon: they did it sneakily. Conveniently 6’8.5 knowing he’s really nowhere near 6’9” and that he was originally listed 6’8”
OriginalAnon said on 27/Apr/21
Imagine being 6'7'' and then adding another 2 inches to your height claim. His ego must be off the charts. I think this listing is spot on.
Canson said on 26/Apr/21
@Arch: I tend to agree. A very legit 6’7” the more I see. I used to think weaker but now solid fits him imho. Not sure if 6’7.25 would be his low but it’s a slim chance
Arch Stanton said on 25/Apr/21
Yeah he looks like a big 6'7 guy and a natural gifted athlete, 6'8-6'9 is too high.

@Waterlover: they’re all off. Kuzma is 6’8” Lebron 6’7 Simmons 6’8” Ingram 6’7” Zion was ok at 6’6@
Waterlover968 said on 21/Apr/21
The NBA height measurement without shoes in 2019 literally means nothing. Tons of players have miraculously gained listed heights, and many of the measurements were fishy to begin with.
Now in 2021, they have changed Kuzma from 6'8" to 6'10". Ben Simmons 6'10" to 6'11". Zion 6'6" to 6'7". Ingram 6'7" to 6'8". Simmons and Kuzma listing are laughable...They are legit listing Kuzma the same height as AD. And Simmons as a whole inch taller than AD.
What also is funny, is that Love is listed at 6'8", but he is clearly taller than LeBron. But LeBron gets listed as one inch taller than him...
I don't understand the inflation with basketball players heights. They are the tallest athletes in the world. There is no need to hyperinflate their stats.

recapa said on 2/Apr/21
@Canson,agreed,i always thought that he was 199cm at worst he looked many times similar to lebron at their heat glory days .his listing 6ft6.75 listing was probablly about 5 hours after waking up.6ft6 3/8-1/2(199-199.5cm) for udonis and (6ft6.75-6ft7) (200-200.5cm).
