Paul George's Height

[TeamBuilder]

Sigh, it has happened again. 2K have changed Paul George's height from 6'9" to 6'8" in the latest roster update.

He is the only player that I know of in the NBA that, according to 2K, grows and shrinks between the heights of 6'8" to 6'10" periodically throughout the season. 2K has done this EVERY year for the past three years now.

Why can't they get this right? He's listed as 6'9" on the Pacer's official team roster. And don't even get me started on Andre Drummond's height.

How tall his Drummond ?

They were changing his height based on their own reasons which could be because:

1. He's not 6'9" fully, close though.
2. People thought he was 6'10 because a lot of big men are over listed.
3. Ronnie is 6'7-8" and has seen him up close.
4. Some people feel barefoot height is real height (unlike NBA trying to market their players to appear larger than life), such as Durant (6'9" barefoot).

Drummond is 6'11.75" in shoes but only because he wears 2" soles.

Paul George 6'8.75" in shoes in 1" soles.

KD is 6'10.25" in 1.25" soles (since he's always a popular topic, gave you guys that one extra).

Shaq was around 6'11" in socks, but wore monstrously huge shoes giving around 3"

Dang down to the sole length, lol.

The problem with 2K is they have some players height with shoes and some without.

I read somewhere were KD is 6'11" with shoes and ESPN's height and weight is off.

I can't remember when the last time Diaw weighed 235, possible 6yrs ago.

Paul George should be 6'8, because It's his original height.

[Mouse]

no standardized measure of height without/with shoes.

Andre Drummond is listed as 6'10 on NBA.com
Paul George is listed as 6'9 on NBA.com

They don't play in their socks. I'd go by playing height.

But Paul George said himself he got measured at around 6'9 and half 6'10 .
