I really like Jackie in the NBA as an energy big off the bench. He has good NBA size, motor, and rebounding/defensive skills for a power forward.

Jackie (6'7) does not have good size for a NBA PF.

He was listed at 6'9". I know listed ht can be exaggerated but he sure looked like a legitimate 6 9 to me. He looked significantly taller than Carl Hall. And at least as tall as CU's big E.

But regardless I think hes got NBA potential.

NBA combine: 6'7.5"

I believe Carl Hall came out at 6-6 in the combine.

Was Hall 6'6" in shoes? That's crazy ...

I know Carmichael was 6'7.5" barefoot and 6'9" in shoes. 6'7.5" is irrelevant, since NBA heights are usually "measured" in shoes. Dwight Howard is actually 6'9" barefoot as a center ...

We should have gotten Carl Hall some Duke shoes: http://www.slcdunk.com/2013/5/17/434214 ... height-the

Interesting article on NBA height measurements usually being a lie in general from ESPN here (Carmichael is just a shade shorter than "6'10" PF Kevin Love): http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_ ... s-in-shoes

Jackie is plenty tall for the PF spot. Taking barefoot measurements is stupid. They play in shoes! Maybe if he was playing beach volleyball you'd have a point.

At that height an extra 1.5" means less than their vertical. With that said does anyone have the numbers for Jackie's vertical?

Disagreed. Barefoot measurements are accurate across everyone. Shoes can be screwed with.

Jackie is just as tall as most NBA PFs, though.
