Why are they nuts?

Because it’s not believable.

How do they measure vertical jump? Is it from a stand still?

They measure both - standstill and running.

The Jordan number I quoted above was running.

Interesting.

It sticks in my mind that David Thompson was measured at 48".

Although, I don't know what method was used to measure such things 45 years ago. Then there's the question of my mind.

Highest Vertical Jump In NBA We've Seen - The Exercisers
48” is the highest for an NBA player ever. So throwing 48” vertical out there is pretty crazy. Although JL has an amazing vertical.

 

[kcsu]

The kids got crazy hops. Period.

 

[jordville]

lol. 48 inches? where'd you read that? tell them they're nuts.

Saw it somewhere else too.

Jalen Lecque Is The MOST ATHLETIC Player in High School

Over the weekend, five-star 2019 guard Jalen Lecque put on a show with the NY Rens in the first EYBL session in Dallas, TX.

The 17-year-old native of the Bronx, NY, became an internet sensation this season thanks to his jaw-dropping athleticism and rim-rattling jams.

Is it just me, or does anyone else get let down with a Jalen Lecque video that doesn't have him effortlessly hammering a crazy dunk?

 

[jordville]

This better?

 

[orangefog]

This better?

Yes, holy cow. That kid is one hell of an athlete.

I’m let down because didn’t we stop recruiting him awhile ago? And I think we were another dream school?

Who Holds The Highest Vertical Jump World Record?

His ups are crazy. He is like Peter Pan in the school play and the stage crew is going a little too hard on the rope attached to the harness.

48" is unlikely. For perspective, at 6-4, that would literally have him looking down at the rim.

Exactly. The clip claiming 48” shows his head about a foot below the rim and his arm about a foot above before he dunks. A 48” leap (4’) would have his head 4” above the rim. Looks like about a 38-40” jump. Still very impressive and athletic. Come on down, Jalen, we’re not picky.
