  • Abiodun Adegoke is a 2.36 metres (7 ft 9 in) tall Nigerian basketball player who is currently notable for being the tallest basketball player alongside Sun Mingming. HE calls himself the "Big Naija”, Adegoke's age is of controversy as a news report reported his age as 17 and 2.18 meters tall in the year 2016. At that time he had size 53 feet but the biggest shoe that he could find after much searching was a size 50. Adegoke currently plays in the MPAC Elite Youth League in Dubai.

    Rooting for the kid, but he's got the kind of body shape and posture that make you think running up and down a basketball court over and over isn't gonna go so well. Hope I'm wrong

    Tacko Fall moves like a normal-sized, healthy person. This guy walks like he's 75-years-old, unfortunately.

    Dude can barely keep his balance while standing lol just standing is challenging, come on now. Height doesn't equal skills on the court son.

      Nate Robinson blocked Yao once, this kid is just 3 inches taller so if he doesn't have skill 7footers can definitely defend him enough to make him not a net positive. I know it seems like in theory he can just dunk everytime but the league has survived 7'5 plus giants before, it's only a couple inches separating him from them , plus in today's game he's getting killed in pick and roll all day and not sure he can run the court and keep up with the athletic bigs of today either.

    Well he got to be able to dribble,move with and without the ball to.i don't see all the mobility in him but at 7'9 who cares about mobility just post up congrats to the Young man.and lying about his age? Why would he do that how would it change anything

    He's not a kid he's around 22 years old another video proved it and if the guy has talent and endurance he will play in the NBA but only if he goes to college and plays basketball there first.... No team will take a risk on a novelty anymore sorry.....And I believe that is now the rule to be drafted is college basketball first they no longer take kids straight out of high school anymore.....

      The rule is 1 year out of highschool. There's no rules about going to college. Many players opted to go player overseas for a year after highschool like LaMelo Ball and JR Smith
