Kenny George

That kid is jumping as high as he can, and he is barely reaching the ball which is being held by George.

Who is the tallest person you know? Well i guess a lot of people know guys like Yao Ming who is 7'5 and Shaq who is what like 7'3? I mean those guys are tall, but they look small compared to this college kid. Kenny George stands a mere 7'7 tall. He weighs a paltry 360 pounds and the best thing is that he can dunk without leaving the ground. Thats right he can stand straight up and put the ball in the hoop. No more hanging on the rim i guess. The man has a 93 inch wingspan and has a 28 shoe size. What do you wear?

The kid plays basketball down in north carolina, but not for any of the schools you might of heard of. Not UNC, or Duke, or Wake Forest, or even NC State. No KG part 2 plays for a small school known as UNC Asheville. The man is a giant, to say the least. He is currently a Junior, and has only played 2 years for the bulldogs and if one looks at his stats one may think that he isn't that dominant of a player. For you see, a man 7'7 should OWN his opponents. However there is a problem, a man 7'7 can only play for so long. KG2 can only plays about 20 minutes a game, but during those 20 minutes the man playing pretty good bball. He is averaging 12.4 points, 7 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 3.5 blocks. Nothing special, but remember thats only in 20 minutes. Imagine if he could play an entire game... kinda disgusting.

If you watch sports center you might have seen a special done on his the other night, as Unc Asheville was playing some random ass team. Every time George was in the game the other team refused to drive to the hoop. They would drive into the lane, see KG2 and then pass it out or dribble it back out. They relied heavily on the 3 pointer and were pretty much non-existent in the paint. It was pretty comical if you ask me. The man completely changed his opponents game plan. While he can't play a ton of minutes, KG2 is still projected to be a future nba player and will probably be a late 1st round or early 2nd round draft pick, simply because what nba team doesn't want a player that is 7'7? I can't think of any.
