    Being brought up by NFL scouts for QB position
    Gotta think NBA and MLB must measure the hand size as well

          They don't have to take an IQ test

          I'm sure that helps if you're a "person of color"

            probably some correlation there... the larger the wiener, the more likely you are to think with your wiener instead of your brain

                  Top 3 hand sizes in the league Kawhi, Giannis, and Boban. Scouts are underrating hand size I think.

                    Let’s not forget sleeve length/ reach correlates. Some 6’6” guys can reach as high as a Much taller opponent.

                    Wasn’t that why Larry Holmes jab was so good? He had the reach of a 7 foot guy?

                      Wingspan is measured and considered a coveted asset to teams. NEVER heard anything about hand size.

                              Of course they look at hand size. They look at everything. They do all kinds of drills too.

                                I remember there was a prejudice some year back that guys with big hands couldn't shoot. Rondo was exhibit A... utter nonsense.

                                  6 NBA Players with the Biggest Hands in the Game:

                                  6. Rajon Rondo: 9.5 inches long, 10 inches wide

                                  5. Jahlil Okafor: 9.5 inches long, 11.25 inches wide

                                  4. Kawhi Leonard: 9.75 inches long, 11.25 inches wide

                                  3. Noah Vonleh: 9.75 inches long, 11.75 inches wide

                                  2. Giannis Antetokounmpo: 9.85 inches long, 12 inches wide

                                  1. Boban Marjanovic: 10.75 inches long, 12 inches wide


                                  I don't know about you guys but it seems like Kawhi should be #1 on the list, just look at his hands...

                                    You know what they say, the bigger the hands the more chicks you get.

                                    And we all know NBA players get a lot of chicks!!!
