Height
I just measured, and my height is exactly 5'11 3/8, and my wingspan is 5'11 1/4. I remember hearing something like if your wingspan is longer than your height, you have more growing to do. In my case, I'm taller than my wingspan. Does that mean I'm done growing? If so, that sucks, I thought you grew until you were 21, and I'm 16.
How tall is everyone in here? My bet is PL is tallest -- looks lanky.

I'm 6'0" so I'm not the tallest.

i don't think that wingspan really has anything to do with it... I think Tyrus Thomas has a wingspan of over 7', and he's around 6'10'', 6'11'' if i remember correctly, and i doubt he grows any more...
and i'm 5'8''

I'm pretty sure when you're done growing the height and wingspan are about equal. Here's wiki:

The arms' wingspan (measured from the tips of the middle fingers) is about equal to the body height.

Basketball players are just freaks, I think.
