I don’t believe the 6’4 7/8 measurement is actually valid although he easily would measure it in his prime earlier in the day. Rob said himself that it looked 3-3.5” between he and Malone at the 92 Dream Team induction. Remember he could’ve lost a bit more due to his heavy weight when he played so maybe that explains why he looked closer to 6’4 if he dipped to 6’4 3/8 which I don’t rule out. 6’4.75 could be his height around lunchtime and 6’4 5/8 his afternoon/evening.

They’d say “oh well he must have grown”. But if someone wanted someone to be taller, they would use the higher measurement. I don’t get why that’s ignored and I don’t get the excuses made with the 6’4 5/8 measurement. And he has an official measurement of 6’4 5/8”. He would measure 6’4 7/8 but not at the same time of day you or I measure 6’3 or 6’4.25”. These are people who can tell the difference being 6’2 and 6’3”. People I know who’ve actually stood next to him said he was 6’4/6’5 range peak. Cause I can only get so skinny by Saturday, man.” Barkley was noticeably slimmer at the wedding, and everything went well during the ceremony and the hora - he even enjoyed it.Canson said on viper: he was never a flat 6’5” let alone over it.
