NBA Draft Combine measurements reveal one player wears enormous clown shoes And then there's Vince Hunter. You might think that this is just a clerical error -- somebody entered the wrong height -- but we at SB Nation have uncovered shocking and very real photo evidence that Hunter has been deceiving us all along: NBA teams, do not draft Vince Hunter. He is a fraud. He is not 6'7.He is a tiny child wearing 9-inch tall shoes. He lacks NBA height, and his speed and vertical leap have been ruined by the stilt-like boots he tramps up and down the court in.ut the NBA opts to measure both, and releases them. The data helps us learn that there are no true 7-footers in the draft, only shoed 7-footers. It teaches us most potential NBA players wear shoes between one and two inches. Oklahoma's TaShawn Thomas wears shoes that are but a flimsy .75 inches thick.

A player listed at 6′ 11″ (with shoes) definitely should not be criticized for a lack of height. Wingspan is where it gets interesting.
