    Durant is 6-11. It's been well known for years.

    Here he looks a little bit taller than 6'7.75 Kevin Love, and about the same as 6'8.5 Blake Griffin.




    Here he looks a couple inches shorter than 6'11 Greg Oden.

    Durant just turned 19 in his picture with Oden. Love wore 1.75 inches shoes. he's 6'7 3/4 without shoes, but 6'9.5 in shoes.

    Kd is also taller than Serge Ibaka.

    People shrink as they age, Shaq went from 7-0.88 as a rookie to 6-11.5 as he stated on Howard Stern after he retired, Wilt went from 7-1 and 1/16th as a rookie to 7-0.5 after he retired. Alonzo is old and worn out now he's probably lost some height due to age, weight and posture. Besides, can't really deduce either of their heights there anyways, you can't even see their feet and neither have perfect posture. You need many photographs, ideally with their feet, to get a better understanding of who's taller than who, and we just don't have that unless OP is holding out on any more/better pics.

    He's 6'11. This is common knowledge.

    The first picture isn't bad, but it's taken at an angle (check out the USA Basketball emblem in the background, they're running downhill).

    Anyone know how reach is calculated?

    Also, T-Mac measured at 6'6.5 wtf?? Always assumed he was a bit taller than Lebron. Crazy wingspan though.

    Reach is measured in shoes, and is how high a player can reach with 1 arm. So I usually subtract their recorded shoe height when comparing players reach because some players wear 2 inch shoes others wear 3/4 inch shoes and it just isn't a good comparison of a players natural physical tools unless you remove that variable. Wingspan is different than reach, I'm talking about standing reach if that's what you were inquiring about.

    Dwight Howard, measured 6-9 as a rookie, standing next to 6-9 Mitch... Dwight isn't taller than him:



    Kevin Durant 20 years 4 months of age next to 6-9 Dwight Howard:


    You guys with your pictorial analysis are funny. Anyone can play that game and get absolutely nowhere. Measurements from the draft >>> all of your powers of speculation. Could he have grown? Sure, nobody is ruling that out, but it is essentially useless to cherry pick pictures, particularly the quality of the ones you guys find where you can't even see the guys feet, and attempt to draw conclusions from them.
