Do Not Sell My Personal Information
It is hard to disrupt 3 point shooting when your guards are midgets. Pacers and Nets shot over our guards the entire evening.

This is what we signed up for when we traded for Spida.

Haliburton is unique and Hield isn't shooting over Mitchell because he's smaller. DG and Mitchell have the average length of your typical point and shooting guards, respectively:

Mitchell: 6'10" wingspan, 8'4" standing reach, and 36.5" vertical [guarantee this skyrocketed since measured]

Devin Booker:
6'8" wingspan, 8'6.5" standing reach, and 35.5" vertical.

Jaylen Brown: 7'0" wingspan, 8'6.5" standing reach, and 40" vertical.

Anthony Edwards: 6'9" wingspan, 8'4" standing reach, and 41" vertical.

Buddy Hield: 6'9" wingspan, 8'5" standing reach, no data.

CJ McCollum: 6'6" wingspan, 8' 0.5'' standing reach, 38.5" vertical [Mitchell is no McCollum].

DG: 6'5" wingspan, 8'2" standing reach, no data.

Stephen Curry:
6'4" wingspan, 8'1" standing reach, and 35.5" vertical.

Damian Lillard: 6'8" wingspan, 7'11.5'' standing reach, and 34.5" vertical.

Kyrie Irving: 6'4" wingspan, 8'3" standing reach, and 34.5" vertical.

Interesting. I read an article that said Mitchell's vertical jump was over 40". I believe it was his rookie year.

Looking down the list, I'm amused Curry has the same dimensions I do. I'm 6' 4". My vertical was never higher than 32 inches.
 
I’m sorry…..I’m just processing! We couldn’t put “length on him”? Buddy is 6’4! Correct if I’m wrong but Okoro is 6’5 and LaVert is 6’6!
You don’t consider that as “length”

One of those guys is on Haliburton.

Late in the game, Mitchell and Garland are playing....they've got to guard someone. You can't just stick Garland on Myles Turner and pray for the best.

But no, I don't think Isaac Okoro can bother Buddy Hield when he's in rythym.
 
I find Okoro and Sexton's physicals amusing when compared to DG.

Okoro: 6'8" wingspan, 8'4.5" standing reach, 38" vertical

Sexton: 6'6" wingspan, 8'2.5", no data.
