Bebe is 7 feet so Daniels looks about 6'8 standing next to him. It's Bruno who looks more like he's 6'10 - 6'11 in that picture.

That has got to be one of the deepest V-necks in the world.

Just heavy sunglasses....my regular glasses do the same thing to my v-neck shirts and they are much smaller.

Ya, Bruno has a pointy head. Who knows the depths of Bebe's fro?!?! Also those measurements are with their shoes. So with bball shoes maybe Bruno's soles are only 1 inch while Bebe has 1.5 for more cushioning?

Still good to see Bruno be the same size as Antetokuonmpo.

New SI Article on Bruno:

http://www.si.com/nba/2014/08/01/bruno- ... asai-ujiri

No one could have predicted that sequence of events, of course. But Caldwell-Pope, Burke, Muhammad and Dieng were all first-round picks and all drafted in the general area they were expected to. There are risers and fallers in every draft but it’s not often a first rounder totally stuns you. Rarely does a pick make you scratch your head and ask, ‘Who?’

A pick like Toronto’s Bruno Caboclo

DeAndre looks 6'5-6'6 here. I thought he was meant to be 6'9, like Bruno.

This is in Vancouver and it looks like they are standing on a sloped street (fairly common).

Donyell was one of my favourite Raptors but I don't remember seeing him score by putting the ball on the floor.

NO no no. You don't understand! All official measurements are taken by a random phone camera with a crappy focal length lense, at an unknown angle, and with the subjects standing with different stances, postures and on uneven surfaces. That is how you determine an nba player's height (oh, and that is in addition to establishing his accurate body-fat percentages)!!!

I wonder if Will Cherry is heading there to kick it with his fellow rookies .....

An AMA is going on right now on Reddit where rookies are answering questions. Bruno will be there answering some questions.

never watched him play, but this franchise has a history of drafting bad international players.

I am so glad you took the time to post this... Are you the type that holds their hand up in class to say you don't know the answer?

In Masai's favour, he also cleaned house in the scouting department.

On a scale from one to five, how high are you on Bruno?
