Do you have to be tall to play basketball?

Height is not necessarily good. In the history of nba, people over 220 are hardly healthy. Ralph Sampson, who is 225 and can even play small forward, is one of the most talented long-term players. He retired early due to injury and missed the Hall of Fame. Mark eaton, the best shot blocker, retired early due to injury, otherwise the Utah parents' championship may not be won; Dutch flying man Schmitz was injured early, his playing time was greatly affected, and even his playing style was forced to change. Sabonis, who is in the NBA, is one grade behind before the injury; Bradley, from the high-profile newcomer to the last joke; Murray Hill, knee injury back to Romania; Bohr retired in 10 and was no longer at his peak.

If you are not tall, you can play basketball. Height has an advantage, but short also has an advantage. Short people are fast and flexible, which comes from students. Tall people are inferior to you in this respect. I'm not tall either. Ha ha. But we have our advantages. Isn't it a good example to watch Bo Akins? Short ones are fine. Usually play point guard. Or shooting guard. Is to put three points.

But the premise is to broaden your horizons and be organized. Dribble steadily, quickly and accurately.

I remember the shortest dunker in the NBA was only 165. Centimeters high. I admire him. Nate robinson. Potato man is not tall. It's not the same as dunking.

The key is personal ability.

As long as you are skilled. Strong organizational skills. Be flexible. Live for a little while playing ball. Height is only one aspect.

Tall people are not necessarily as flexible as you, and running is not necessarily as fast as you.
