Wasnt he listed at 6'8" 240 his rookie year? Im not all that surprised by it. Actually I remember looking at Boozer during LeBron's rookie year and thinking LeBron was taller than him then, and Boozer was listed at 6'9" at the time I believe.

He was listed at 6'8 240 as a rookie. If you go back and watch highlights from his rookie year you'll be surprised at how much he's grown since back then.

I remember LeBron saying he was bigger than 6-8 but that he would never be listed above 6-8 because he didn't want to be labeled as a "big man".

6-9 260 doesn't surprise me 1 bit. He is a beast. I wouldn't be surprised if he weighs more than 260.

Well he was only 18 when he was a rookie, no surprise he kept growing.

Men officially stop growing by around 25 and women around 21 to 23. Back spasms usually unrelated to injury are signs of growth. Remember Kobe sat out some playoff games(if memory serves me right) due to back spasms when he was around 24. Same issues.
