Bol possessed exceptionally long limbs (inseam 49 inches (120 cm)) and large hands and feet (size 16 1/2). His arm span, at 8 feet 6 inches (2.59 m), is (as of 2013) the longest in NBA history, and his reach was 10 feet 5 inches (3.18 m).
So for perspective. Boban towers over almost everyone. Bamba is not as tall but he's got a longer wingspan and a higher standing reach.7'3" Serbian giraffe Boban Marjanovic. Owner of a 7'8" wingspan and 9'7" standing reach

Couple thoughts:Troy Brown should've went back to college IMO.Split T wrote:If Troy Brown can shoot, he'd be really nice. The rest of his game isn't all that unlike Doncic. Not as advanced but he's got PG skills in a forward body. Maybe more Iggy.
Why? For teams sake or for his sake? He's a mid 1st round pick right now, that's hard to pass up. Rarely do players go back and improve their stock once they reach that level.TheOriginalOriginal wrote:Troy Brown should've went back to college IMO.Split T wrote:If Troy Brown can shoot, he'd be really nice.

His sake. I think he's gonna in way over his head, very good chace he is out of the league before his rookie contract expires. I just dont see why he went pro. Archie Goodwin-esque.Split T wrote:Why?

I don't see that at all. Archie was all athlete, no skill. Troy Brown is very skilled.TheOriginalOriginal wrote:His sake.
