With KP, he's 7'1 w/out shoes, 7'3 in them, so Frank may be closer to 6'6 in shoes

Adam Silver is 6'3, and Frank is at least a couple inches taller than him

Yeah, makes sense.

SIDENOTE: Who is that in your avatar?

Troy Brown, my pick for who we should draft next year

Just seems like that all-around type of guy that everybody needs. Don't think he'll ever be a star, but I feel he has the best chance of being a solid contributor at the NBA, and I don't think we'll be in a position to draft one of the top guys

Obviously this is subject to change as we see what these kids can do in college, but I'm rocking with him right now

If Adam Silver is 6'3" barefoot, he is at least 6'4" in dress shoes. Which would make Frank a legit 6'6" in dress shoes as seen here.

I'm rocking with Kevin Knox (assuming we are not in position to get Luka Doncic or Michael Porter, Jr. of course).

I think Frank is 6'6. DX has him at 6'6.

Somewhere had him listed at 6'5",somewhere else at 6'6".

All I know, is when I see him bent over a bit handling the ball, it just recalls Michael Ray Richardson, who was 6'5". Meaning, there is no lie anywhere in that height for Frank. He's every bit 6'5" or more.

I was talking about KP in regards to Frank's height the other day. KP, with shoes on, must be every bit of 7'3", because when you see guy who are listed as 7' in the NBA, KP is just obviously MUCH taller than them.

If you take a horizontal line and draw it across the top of the pic you'll see the top of Frank's head is even with or maybe higher than Lonzo's. At first glance it only appears that Lonzo is taller bc he has a longer head. Where as Frank as a way smaller rounder head. Also look at their frame. Lonzo has a horrible NBA body. Steep sloping narrow shoulders. Frank as big wide and broad square shoulders. Once Frank fills out he may be very physically imposing.

Not sure if this was posted, but from a Yahoo article summarizing Zach Lowe's podcast.

The reason Dennis Smith, Jr. wasn’t really in consideration was that the Knicks were never granted access to his medical records. This is the same reason his workout with the team was abruptly canceled. The reporters speculated that Smith’s agent may not have wanted the Knicks to draft him.


Interesting at least.

Beck is the one who said this:

"I heard there were concerns about Dennis Smith from a medica standpoint. You never know with these situations, like agents withholding things because they don't want you to draft a guy. I believe a lack of medical records has been out there"

It came up because Lowe asked how much was the Frank pick because of PJax and Begley said a 100%. He said up until the draft folks within the organization were making cases for Monk and DSJ.
