49 NBA players are listed at 6'9" on 2026-27 rosters, making it one of the most populated single heights in the league. The group spans 27 teams and an age range from 19 to 41 years old.
At 6'9", the average NBA height and this height are exactly the same — the stats show an average of 6'9" across the full league roster. That alignment means this group sits squarely at the center of the league's size distribution, pulling players from both the forward and center roles.
Think you'd know these players from their team, height, age and jersey number alone?

Positions Covered at This Height
Forwards dominate the group, with 36 of the 49 players listed at the forward position. Centers account for 11 more, while just 2 players at this height are classified as guards — Ace Bailey of the Utah Jazz being one of them, wearing #19. That positional spread reflects how 6'9" sits at the crossover point between stretch forwards and undersized centers, giving coaches flexibility in how they deploy these players.
Age Range Across the Group
The youngest player in the group is AJ Dybantsa of the Washington Wizards, a forward born Jan 29, 2007, who wears #4. At the other end, LeBron James of the Philadelphia 76ers and Taj Gibson of the Memphis Grizzlies are both 41 years old — James wearing #23 and Gibson #67. The average age across the group is 25.5, so the roster skews young despite those two veterans at the top.
Teams and Birthplaces in the Group
The 49 players are spread across 27 teams, with Minnesota leading at 4 players. Los Angeles Lakers and Memphis each carry 3. Birthplace data shows 42 players born in the USA, with 3 born in France — including Mohamed Diawara (Paris), Ousmane Dieng (Lot-et-Garonne), and Pacome Dadiet (Aubagne). New Jersey is the most represented U.S. state by birth region, with 6 players born there.
