Victor Wembanyama’s actual height was the subject of intense speculation leading up to the NBA draft. Is he 7-foot-2 or 7-foot-3? Some observers wondered if he was 7-4, even 7-5.
The fact that he is so tall and so skilled for such a tall player led the San Antonio Spurs to select him with the No. 1 overall pick of the draft last week. Wembanyama was listed at 7-2 when he played for the French national team. Various stories and articles about him list him anywhere from 7-2 to 7-5.
