AD had a similar growth spurt he was like 5'6 as a freshman and grew almost a foot the next year.

Them nikkas won the genetic lottery. Those were multi-million dollar growth spurts.

Lamelo Ball had a good growth spurt too. I didn’t think that nikka would end up being 6’8. I think he went from 6’1 to 6’8 in one summer.

When you are consistently playing sports/training the body adapts as the growth is just gradually happening although at a quicker pace...so it's not like they were 5'9 one year and wasn't doing shyt and then over the summer you grow to 6'6 and now you go try out...
If that's the case every man who played sports in school should be 6'6. And Rodman wasn't playing sports.

Went from a PG height to a legit C :leon:

Real talk him and AD benefited it from it too....They where able to devolop real time fluid permeiter skills which allowed them to become versatile players on top of being already freakish athletes...

All big men back then even when AD was coming up where mostly restricted to the paint area or where not given that type of freedom to handle the rock...that’s what makes KD such an anamoly..:wow:
