Per the NBA, he's 6'7" without shoes.
He isn't undersized at SF, he has above average size there. SF has been shrinking every year as teams go to 3-guard alignments (the most extreme example: 6'1" Langston Galloway is legitimately a SF this season).
Starting SF Height / Weight
Michael Porter Jr (DEN): 6'10" / 218 (his backup is last year's starter Will Barton: 6'5" / 181)
LeBron James (LAL): 6'9" / 250
Kyle Anderson (MEM): 6'9" / 230
Deni Advija (WAS): 6'9" / 210
Harrison Barnes (SAC): 6'8" / 225
T.J. Warren (IND): 6'8" / 220
Bojan Bogdanovic (UTA): 6'8" / 216
Patrick Williams (CHI): 6'8" / 215
Jayson Tatum (BOS): 6'8" / 210 - Started at PF last yearJerami Grant (DEN): 6'8" / 210 - Likewise played PF most of career
OG Anunoby (TOR): 6'7" / 232
Jimmy Butler (MIA): 6'7" / 230Kawhi Leonard (LAC): 6'7" / 230
Gordon Hayward (BOS): 6'7" / 225
DeAndre Hunter (ATL): 6'7" / 225
Khris Middleton (MIL): 6'7" / 222
Dorian Finney-Smith (DAL): 6'7" / 220
Kelly Oubre (GSW): 6'7" / 203
Brandon Ingram (NOP): 6'7" / 190
Isaac Okoro (CLE): 6'6" / 225
Joe Harris (BKN): 6'6" / 220
Danuel House (HOU): 6'6" / 220
Derrick Jones Jr (POR): 6'6" / 210 - he literally played PF w/ the Heat last year!!!James Ennis (ORL): 6'6" / 215
Danny Green (PHI): 6'6" / 215
R.J. Barrett (NYK): 6'6" / 214
Mikal Bridges (PHX): 6'6" / 209 (his backup is Langston Galloway: 6'1" / 200. Payne/Carter/Galloway w/ 6'8" /210 Cam Johnson at 4)
Keldon Johnson (SAS): 6'5" / 220
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (OKC); 6'5" / 180
Josh Okogie (MIN): 6'4" / 213 (he's a PF in the closing lineup)
Butler is 12th in Height and 3rd in Weight.
23 of 30 starters fall in the 6'6" to 6'8" range.
TLDR he isn't an undersized SF.
I don't know how you guys got there, but with Oladipo, he'd be the three, other than that he's best off as a SG imo.
Robinson (6'7" / 215) would be the three. You would rather Oladipo be point of attack on the perimeter for obvious reasons.
