Centers and Forwards Share the Height Equally
With 16 centers and 15 forwards, 6'11" sits at a genuine positional crossover point. Big forwards who can switch onto perimeter players and traditional post centers both land here, which is why the list includes players with very different roles on the floor. Houston carries 4 players at this height, the most of any team, while Atlanta has 3 and Brooklyn has 2. The rest are spread one to a team across 18 franchises total.
A Wide Age Range Within One Height
The youngest player at this height is Chris Cenac Jr. of the Boston Celtics, a forward born Feb 1, 2007, who is 19 years old. The oldest is DeAndre Jordan of the New Orleans Pelicans, a center born Jul 21, 1988, who is 38 — a 19-year gap between the two extremes. The average age across the group is 26, which places it squarely in the prime years of a typical NBA career.
Birthplaces Span Multiple Continents
14 players in this group were born in the USA, with domestic birthplaces spread across states including TX, FL, and NY. The remaining players were born in countries across Europe, Africa, Oceania, and the Caribbean — including Giresun, Türkiye; Sombor, Serbia; Tuzla, Bosnia & Herzegovina; Yaounde, Cameroon; and Rotorua, New Zealand, among others. Georgia, Michigan, and Texas each produced 2 college-affiliated players in the group.
