This is freaky - 8'2 15 yr old wants to play in the NBA

Yeah, you read that right, Eight foot freaking 2 inches. If this kid can walk without falling down, he's an instant #1 pick. He's a foot freaking taller than Shaq.

 

Miaute Bol's kid finally grew up??

 

There's no way his body could stand up to the beating he would take over an NBA season.

 

He'll probably get an invite, just cause he's so damn tall.

 

someone needs to get him in the State NOW if he's to ever have a hope of being a player.

 

What an advantage. He can walk into bars with his crank hanging out and say "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize it was out. But since it is, do you mind?"

 

The wrestler "The Big Show" had that over active pituitary gland thing and had to have surgery to prevent health problems. Andre the Giant had it too, but he never had surgery to stop it. Thid kid ought to seriously check into the surgery. Wadlow died in his early twenties.

 

pavel podkolzin of the mavericks had the same deal.

honestly, i doubt this kid is 8'2". the only source is a very non-authoritative press release about the plight of children in africa. 2.5 meters sounds a lot like a rough estimate and is probably a bit of hyperbole.
