Height is always going to be at a premium in the National Basketball Association. With a ten foot hoop, it always helps to have guys who can get there easily. You might be wondering, however, who is the current tallest player in the NBA?
On an active NBA roster, the tallest player in the NBA right now is Boban Marjanović, who stands 7-foot-4 and plays for the Dallas Mavericks.
One wrinkle in the current ranking: Tacko Fall was drafted by the Boston Celtics this past year and stands at 7-foot-5, but he’s currently a member of the Maine Red Claws, Boston’s G-League affiliate.
The tallest player in NBA history is a tie between Georghe Muresan and Manute Bol. Both were listed at 7-foot-7.
