Derrick Favors now with "Dwight Howard-type shoulders"

[Dr. Jones]

typical off-season thread .. refreshing, since it's actually a lockout.

only 20 years old. any chance he's grown taller since last season?

Statistically its very rare. Would be awesome though.

Let's hope. Not that he's short by any means, but man, if he grows to 6'11 and actually fills out his frame like Dwight Howard, then he alone could make New Jersey regret the D-Will trade

Not that rare. I mean, he isn't going to grow anymore than an inch, but he could have easily put on 1/2 inch or something like that.

Can I just say that after reading this news, I have more of an itch than EVER for the season to start...

So those pills DO work, then.

List of players with "Dwight Howard shoulders"
1) Dwight Howard

Also, not to be too much of a bummer but Dwight Howard is much more likely than Derrick Favors to have grown since they were measured.

After Favors gets in one more season, people will be saying Dwight Howard has shoulders like Derrick Favors.

I can't figure out why you would say this. Favors is far more likely to have grown in the last year than Howard is. A one year old infant is many times more likely to have grown in the past year than either of those two, though.

Because public, comprehensive measurements are only done once at the draft combine. Howard's numbers come from when he was 18, seven years ago. Favors' numbers come from when he was a year older than Dwight, last year.

Actually it was 7 months (age difference between Dwight and Derrick).
