6'4 Dion Waiters next to 6'5 Austin Rivers.

if you look at tip of Austin's head, it does seem like he's technically taller.

Long necks ftw.

Maybe more like Dion Waiters 6 2.75 and Austin Rivers 6 3.25

Kobe's 6'4 without shoes also.

Are these guys wearing stacks?

Yeah it's always inflated but the good news is your height is only important compared to the players you're playing against.

And he looked the same height as Bradley Beal in the NBA draft photo. His height wasn't measured or what as he didn't enter workouts?

Correct. Waiters did not measure at the combine. Rivers measured 6'5 and Beal 6'4.75. Waiters measurememts are from 2 years ago. It's likely he is around 6'4.5.

The old "I can tell how tall someone is based on a photograph of them standing near another person" promotion, eh?

Oh come on, you are looking at a picture where the two guys are not standing at the same angle, and we are talking about a matter of what, an inch?

People get so damn nervous about measurements. Lets wait and see if he can play at first.

Forget their height, I want to know who went out of their way to coordinate the tape with their university colors. Somehow I think I'm overpaying for my video games.
