Is 7ft 9in teenager Olivier Rioux too tall for basketball?
- tocs3 2y agoI am a Spurs fan and will be interested in how another tall player, Victor Wembanyama, will do. Olivier Rioux has a year or two before the NBA but I worry a little about the really tall players health. It is a little painful to even watch Boban Marjanović run up and down the floor.

- sombragris 2y agoAnother headline with Imperial measurements. For the non-US world, the height in SI units is 2.36 meters.

- paulryanrogers 2y agoPerhaps gigantism combined with already tall genes? Regardless, I hope he cares for his health. Even NBA money cannot repay decades of post-career years in pain.
