The tallest basketball player ever? 7’9 Big Nija (This dude can palm with ball with 2 fingers!)
-
Bruh, he looks like a create a player…this is insane lmao!
-
@12th this dude actually got some meat on his bones too. He ain't a twig
-
Dude is 3 inches off of being 8 foot. Let that sink in.
-
@508 yeah, and he’s not sloppy looking either (sim buhlar). I think with a good nutritionist and a good trainer he could really get his core and upper body into peak condition. His free throw looks really smooth too, so the potential for a good mid range is there. Too early to tell, but def some potential.
-
@12th he does look gassed just going up and down the court tho. Definitely needs conditioning. I can't tell how long he's been out there tho
-
can he shoot 3's?
-
Man needs a new nickname tho. Idk if that would fly in the NBA lol
-
@508 I’m pretty sure they probably run him the whole game lmao. Dude looked like their entire game plan.
You can definitely see his coordination, strength & conditioning need some work. He looks a little goofy when he jogs, stride doesn’t have a lot of natural rhythm…but i think he can definitely overcome that if they get him around the right people.
-
Yea sorry this dude is bad he’s not making it imagine him guarding bam or a nigga like Chet
-
@ogxsuave bruh he’s a kid, of course he can’t guard them LMAO! I think he’s a sophomore in HS…he needs a lot of development.
-
@12th oh shit I thought he was a adult
-
Ok nvm, apparently no one knows his true age. Some say he’s 17, others he’s 21.
-
Whatever happened to neckboi
-
Shit even then Chet is an Kid as well this guy looks like he’s in pain when he runs
He does have an elite outlet pass tho lmao
-
“However, Adegoke has reportedly continued to claim he is still a teenager, having played in the MPAC Elite Youth League in Dubai this year.”
-
@508 he still plays at spire I think he’s boutta be a senior
-
@ogxsuave yeah he does look like he’s feeling every step. He needs a lot of strength training. His lower body and core looks like it’s struggling to carry his top weight
Co-sign on the outlet pass lol
-
@12th reminds me of when dudes said Thon wasn’t young lol
-
@508 i wanna ask Marv Albert to pronounce his name
-

“Khris Middleton shooting free throws”
-
@dc80 kresh middletan shating fra thraws
-
@ogxsuave yeah i don’t think he comes from Money, so that definitely has an effect on his health. He’s been playing in Lagos apparently and needs financial help. Hasn’t been able to get much attention from American scouts, so i doubt we’ll be Curry sliding with this dude anytime soon lol
-
Nija please
-
I think it’s pronounced NAI YA
-
Being this tall would suck so much man

He will be dead by 30.

@petravork gotdamn…chill man
just the TRUTH about those giants
Theyre like St Bernards, once youre over 7 foot your lifespan gets S H O R T
-
@petravork yeah it is true though
-
@petravork RIP Tacko and Bol2
-
@12th there's quite a few ppl that have lived into their 70s as tall as 7'11. It definitely has an adverse effect on health and they probably have a reduced life expectancy, but if they're athletic enough to play professional basketball then they're definitely healthier than the average person that size.
I think the longest anyone 8ft+ has lived is 55 years tho. -

-
If this guy refines his game and isnt injury prone, he’ll be a fairly big name soon
-
@petravork Facts like this always makes me think of the movie Jack
