Basketball – The Tallest NBA Player on Every Team, Ranked
While the center position may have lost much of its presence within the NBA, with teams dropping the standard back-to-basket standard, this doesn’t exclude the importance of high players from basketball.
Size is still important regarding basketball, despite the NBA shifting towards a position-less sport.
Regardless, various towering gentlemen are further developed than their contemporaries in the current game.
Let us introduce you to every NBA team’s tallest member, making sure to compare them to their counterparts.
#1: Boban Marjanovic, Los Angeles Clippers
Height: 7’3”
Position: Center
Bottom line: Marjanovic is a true titan, with colossal hands, being able to make a standing dunk. The titan enjoys a fantastic 27.1 Player Efficiency Rating, almost rubbing shoulders with legends like LeBron James and Michael Jordan, whose ratings fall at 27.65 and 27.91 respectively. Unlike a lot of the players on this list, Marjanovic possesses true skills, alongside unnatural tallness. This is a rare combination to see in the NBA, you may be surprised to learn!
#2: Salah Mejri, Dallas Mavericks
Height: 7’2”
Position: Center
Bottom line: Why is Mejri’s career heading into rocky territory? He may have to pull off a miracle if he wants to keep his spot on the Dallas Mavericks.
The Dallas Mavericks center appears for less than seven minutes each game, after aggregating minutes in the double-digits bracket during his initial three seasons in his team. Both Dwight Powell and DeAndre Jordan beat him in his depth chart. They are probably better players than him in general.
