NEW YORK, N.J. - Californer -- Tallest vs Shortest NBA Players
The average US male is 5'7.5 tall and almost 10 inches shorter than the average NBA player. Sadly, that's not tall enough for the NBA: the shortest NBA players in 2021 are 5'10 and the tallest NBA player in 2021, Tacko Fall, is 7'5 - over 1.5 feet taller than the average US male.
The number of super-tall players in the NBA is growing; the 2020 - 2021 season is the first time there are over twenty over seven feet tall NBA players. Players who are under six feet are much rarer - only nine players' heights start with a 5.
The shortest NBA players in the 2020 - 2021 season are Jared Harper (Knicks), Tremont Waters (Celtics), Facundo Campazzo (Nuggets) and Markus Howard (Nuggets); they are all 5'10 - two and a half inches taller than the average US male.
