SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: Despite being perceived as an undersized power forward, Draymond Green, an All-Star for the Golden State Warriors, has made a substantial impact in the NBA. Standing at 6 feet 6 inches (198 cm/1.98 m), his height is a topic of interest for both fans and analysts.
While Green's listed height places him somewhat below the average for NBA power forwards, who typically stand around 6 feet 9 inches (206 cm/2.06 m), his impact on the game is anything but diminutive.
Hailing from Saginaw, Michigan, Green has forged an impressive career in professional basketball.
Predominantly occupying the role of a power forward, his accomplishments include securing four NBA championships, earning four NBA All-Star selections, gaining membership in two All-NBA Teams, and clinching two Olympic gold medals.
Draymond Green revealed his 'real measurement'
In 2019, Draymond Green settled the ongoing debate about his height, which some contended was closer to 6 feet 5 inches rather than the 6 feet 7 inches he had been listed at since his NBA debut in 2012.
The Golden State Warriors stalwart confirmed that his true height without shoes is 78 inches or a complete 6 feet 6 inches. This measurement comfortably aligns with the midpoint between his initially reported height and the estimations made by analysts.
Steve Kerr, the head coach, was among those who had made assumptions about Green's height. Having collaborated closely with the power forward for over six years, the coach was confident that the All-Star fell just short of being 6 feet 7 inches tall.
As reported by Logan Murdock of NBC Sports Bay Area, Kerr said at that time, "I sort of laughed about it, I talked to Draymond every day for five years. They keep introducing him as 6-7 and he looks like he's two inches taller than me and I'm 6-2 1/2 so this has been going on forever."
Draymond Green's height compared to Klay Thompson
Draymond Green and Klay Thompson, along with Stephen Curry, have been integral to the Golden State Warriors' success.
However, speculation suggests that Thompson whose height is listed as 6 ft 6 in (198 cm/ 1.98 m) according to NBA, could enter the offseason as a free agent due to his current contract, as per ClutchPoints.
Thompson’s height has also been reported as 6′ 5¾″ (1.97 m) according to IMDb and as 6 feet 7 inches per Healthy Celeb.
Thompson has reportedly shared cryptic posts on Instagram about his contract extension negotiations, while Green has kept his teammates updated about his own free agency decisions.
Andrew Wiggins and Draymond Green: Who is taller?
Andrew Wiggins, standing at 6 feet 7 inches (2.01 meters), and Draymond Green are both pivotal players for the Golden State Warriors and have recently been in the spotlight for various reasons.
In August 2023, there was speculation about a potential blockbuster trade in which the Philadelphia 76ers would acquire both Wiggins and Green from the Warriors.
Wiggins secured a four-year, $109 million extension with the Warriors in October 2022. This contract extension has implications for Green’s aspirations for a maximum contract.
Green, who is slightly shorter than Wiggins by 0.05 meters, has reportedly been outspoken in addressing rumors surrounding Wiggins, per the New York Post.
Draymond Green or Kevon Looney: Who is taller?
Kevon Looney, primarily fulfilling the role of center for the Warriors, is reportedly listed at a height of 6 feet 9 inches (206 cm/2.06 meters) according to the NBA. His stature affords him an advantage in aspects such as rebounding and shot-blocking.
Hence, Looney holds a height advantage over Green by a margin of 3 inches (0.08 meters). Despite this disparity, both players have made significant contributions to the Warriors.
