Haha you mean LBJ. I remember when we drafted him his open growth plates had some projecting a 6’7/6’8 point forward but a year later he is firmly 6’4 LOL
lol, the hope he would magically become a 6'8 sf was extremely laughable
It’ll be interesting to see at the end of the 2022-23 season where he stacks up against Branham and Wesley.
If he actually could develop into a true pG that would be great but I don’t see it at all.
im not giving up on him like alot here. Still i never heard the words growth plates before spurs drafted primo suave.I wont regret my primo jersey purchase yet
I’m known as a Primo hater in here but it’s more just managing expectations. I still think he becomes a contributing role
player in the league eventually.
Why write an obvious lie? He was 6'5" in Alabama and now he's 6'6".
One word…….ATTENTION.
It’s not impossible for him to STILL grow. David Robinson grew 7 inches between 20 and 22. Open growth plates don’t mean that he WILL grow, but he could, though.
Don’t waste your time…….
With shoes.
His official height, shoeless (the official standard of the NBA) as measured by an MD is 6’4.
Sit down.
Sorry. Basketball is usually played without shoes. I forget every time
Oh I agree on that a lot, that said I still hope he goes from 6'4" to 6'5" or 6'6" he's 19 about to be 20 it's fairly common for guys to get another inch or two between 18 and 24. That said pro athletes tend to be fairly early bloomers. (tend for aau and traveling teams it's not a for certain but tend to be.)
Nice highlights, granted they're against G league players but still better compe ion than D1 where he probably should have been last year. I was one of the posters that were advocating Pop to throw Primo in the fire and he did, and looked terrible and overmatched, still think it was beneficial to get him out there and start some games and travel with the team. Going to be a lot of compe ion this year he's going to have to earn the PT. Summer league is 2 weeks away, let's see if he stands out over the 3 rooks.
Is that when D-Rob was still in College? I remember reading he wanted to serve his time with Navy, so I don't know what year he was drafted? I assume he grew before getting drafted? I would also love to know what he was eating/doing those two years that he grew 7 inches.
Josh will probably grow some more
He also grew 10 inches in one year from his junior season to senior season, dude was a freak.
He had a uva growth spurt but he was already 7ft by his sop re season.
In the end, I will trust Pop’s talent evaluation of young players (not veterans) because he’s almost always right in spotting talent early on, but from the outside it seems like a bigger leap compared to prior players Pop prioritized. Saying he sucks or saying he’s fine—either one seems too soon. There’s little to base an opinion on. This next season needs to show improvement, and so there’s some pressure in my opinion.
Miss Cleo tell us again of the future
Primo is going to shock a lot of people….
not even a tiny doubt!
Excellent cut and pasting. Not even providing the source.
Compare your heights to the official heights listed on NBA.com based on measurements provided by team doctors.
