Standing Tall: The 5 Tallest Point Guards in NBA History
#1 Ben Simmons
Brooklyn Nets player Ben Simmons is a towering 6 feet 10 inches tall. Simmons has the potential to become one of the league’s best guards because of his great vision and powerful ball-handling talents.
#2 Magic Johnson
6’9″ Magic Johnson, surprisingly, is not number one. The future Hall of Famer played every season as the starting point guard for the Lakers.
#3 Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway
The former point guard for the Orlando Magic has one of the all-time great point guard moves. Several NBA players followed his lead after seeing his satchel.
#4 Luka Doncic
A modern wonder at 6 feet, 7 inches! Doncic is the greatest player in the NBA right now when it comes to taking advantage of his size mismatch.
#5 Ron Harper
According to his bio, Ron Harper is 1.92 meters (6 feet) tall. The five-time champion was one of the all-time best guards before remaking himself into a towering outside defender who could still handle the ball.

Fact or Fiction? Exposing the 5 Fitness Myths Holding You Back
Myth 1: Exercising first thing in the morning is the best.
Some of us may do better on the treadmill before breakfast, but it doesn’t matter when you work out; the important thing is to meet your fitness goals.
Myth 2: Running can harm your knees
Incorrect running form or starting a running regimen too fast are two possible causes of this misconception
Myth 3: A fat-free diet is the healthiest option.
In reality, fat helps the endocrine system store and distribute energy. Therefore, it may be counterproductive to completely eliminate fat from one’s diet
Myth 4: Internet hacks
Most people do their fasting workouts first thing in the morning, before breakfast, when their cortisol levels are already elevated. This could have a negative effect on your weight loss
Myth 5: A pound of muscle weighs more than a pound of fat.
Of course, muscle weighs more than fat does. So, a pound of muscle takes up far less space than a pound of fat.
