A little more perspective
The NBA career profile gives 7 ft 6 in, while Philadelphia’s 2023–24 media guide describes 7 ft 7 in. This record selects the profile’s 2.29-meter listing and discloses the disagreement; it does not establish a definitive historical maximum. The profile does not state when its height field was measured or last updated.
Adult late-1980s Washington playing-era likeness in a red-and-white number 10 basketball uniform; clothing details are interpretive. Illustrated likeness, not an authentic photograph or endorsement. The selected height controls the comparison; facial details, body proportions, clothing and footwear are interpretive, not separately measured. The source does not state whether footwear is included, so no barefoot or shoe-height correction is applied. The review date records when the listing was checked, not when the person was measured.
