Wow, that will come in handy when trying to avoid being cornered by Mark Berman in a post game presser.

I think with my own vertical jump I could avoid being cornered by Mark Berman in a post game presser

Most people just step over him.

just for context for those who can't watch the video this isn't a standing vertical. I believe the nba does both a standing and approach allowed vertical.

His Maximum Vertical at the combine was 40". 2 Inches less than the highest that season, tying a couple dudes named Derrick Rose and Eric Gordon

Believe that is also only a 1 step vertical. Ahmed's bounce is outrageous but I bet Deron's would have been absurd if he got that kind of running start

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. The profile I found didn't specify, just 'maximum vert'

Very impressive for sure. It is hard to compare to other numbers you hear because most are standing verticals and not approaches. I'm assuming he is in the 36-40" range for standing though which would still be very impressive.

I just love that Clarke is walking

Real talk, reconstruction surgery has made leaps and bounds as has our understanding on recovery therapy. I had my ACL fixed up my junior year at Tech and the scar I have relative to some of the older guys I see is ridiculous. Sports medicine is far more precise and accurate and Tech has some amazing team doctors.

I'm just wondering why he's wearing a sports bra in that video.... :I

Hopefully he actually uses his hops to get to the rim next year, instead of sitting in the corner popping (and missing) 3's.

Not what I was searching for... but still how I feel.
