Mr 8-Footer would probably be utterly useless in the open court and could not dribble to save his life. But could swat just about any shot coming at the basket, pluck rebounds at shoulder height and dunk BOWING DOWN. If he has the slightest bit of talent in him, he could master a sky hook that would make Kareem blush.
So, could a guy this tall make it? For illustration purposes, here a pic of the tallest man in the world, 8-5 (!!) Leonid Stadnik.
