look up Muggsy Bogues, he was 5 foot 3
Thanks, that helps my point. Muggsey Bogues is the smallest point guard in the NBA. The exceedingly rare exception proves the rule. There are several references you could look up, but most of them agree with the average height in the NBA holding steady at around 6'6". From just one of those:
In 1952, the average height was 6’4”. It changed to 6’7” in 1987. Although the average height decreased a little in the subsequent years, it’s still taller than it used to be back then.
Right now, the average height of NBA players is 6’6”.
The average height of a man in North America is around 5'9". That is exactly 3/4 of a foot difference which is so far outside of the bell curve in comparison as to be off the visible chart.
But, this is all besides the point. The character in this game could be a point guard, but they average around 6' to 6'3". The guy in this game could possibly be 6', but most of the angles and scenes he is in seem to indicate that would be maybe the max. If that is accurate it would probably be at least mentioned that he was really good for being as short as he was, or that he specifically played point guard. I didn't see anything in the story about that though (could have missed it, to be sure).
I was just curious if there were limitations to what the dev had to work with and it wasn't a decision made for some other reason.
We are expected to believe that your 18+ year old sister/friend/roomate with arm sleeve tattoos is a virgin who hasn't had her first kiss yet on this site all the time. It wouldn't that much of a stretch to assume the dev expects us to make almost as much of a wild suspension of disbelief that this guy had played in the NFL at his height. I don't like either expectation, as they are both ridiculous.
