How tall is Kevin Durant really?

[JrueToTheGame]

I know this has been debated a bunch of times but I got curious looking at this picture:



Now if you look at Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James (Both listed at 6'8) they seem to be the same height and Kobe being 6'6 obviously a few inches shorter but Kevin Durant is kind of awkwardly leaning over and he looks significantly taller than LeBron here I would almost say he looks closer to 6'11 than his listed 6'9.

Here are a few other pics:



Definitely more than an inch taller than Bron here.



Again he looks to be 2-4 inches taller than 6'8 LeBron James



Here he is standing next to 6'10 Center Kendrick Perkins...even looks like he has a few inches on him.

So the question remains, How tall is Kevin Durant really?

Re: How tall is Kevin Durant really?

I would like to point how how LeBron covered himself up in that picture next to the pool and KD didn't. Also, that pool is where I work out at!

But back to the topic probably 7 foot tall.

This is actually a very good question, i was really suprised looking at the photo you posted of the Thunder as a team. He is TALLER than he's starting center. Wow.

In every new roster that I ever play with I always go to Kevin Durant and edit his height to 6'11.

Re: How tall is Kevin Durant really?

This is based off his combine height:

He is closer to 6'11" than 6'10" now.

Yea idk it was just very interesting to me I mean this guy is taller than an NBA starting center! Looks close to 6'11 - 7'0 to me in some of these pictures.

Re: How tall is Kevin Durant really?

People think he grew taller, I don't think so. Draft express said he was 6'9" without shoes at his combine. You can add 1-2 inches to that with shoes and you have the height he is being projected right now (6'10"-6'11"). He definitely seems at least the same height as Ibaka in the pic below.

Yeah, they're both listed at 6'10", but Perkins is probably closer to 6'9" and Durant closer to 6'11".
