Okay, so the other day I was watching some old NBA highlights, and it got me thinking about Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. That skyhook was unstoppable, right? But it wasn’t just the shot, it was his reach. So, I got curious and I went down a rabbit hole: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s wingspan.

My Deep Dive

First, I just did a quick search. Just typed it into the search bar to see it pop up.

I pulled up a bunch of websites. Some were saying one thing, some another. It was a mess! I needed something reliable. I don’t want to know the fake news.

I found some old articles, scanned through them. They had some cool old photos, but nothing concrete on the wingspan that I could 100% trust. It is too old to be sure.

Getting to the “Real” Measurement

I started looking at more “official” sources. I was looking for NBA stuff, combine measurements (even though Kareem played way before those were a big thing).

  • I went to several basketball forums.
  • It’s tough because, you know, they didn’t measure this stuff the same way back in the day.
  • Tried comparing photos of him next to other players with known wingspans. That was…not scientific.
  • Tried to make sure the players are standing up right.

What I “Figured Out”

Okay, so I couldn’t find an official document with “Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Wingspan = X inches” stamped on it. But, putting together all the forum discussions, the old articles, and some educated guessing, here’s what I think:

It is a bit over 7 feet. That’s all I can confirm.

I might not have a perfect number,but it was a fun to find the anwser of Kareem’s wingspan.
