Eleven NBA players stand at exactly 7'1" on 2026-27 rosters, making this one of the rarer height bands in the league. They're spread across 11 different teams, so no franchise doubles up at this measurement.
The group skews young — the youngest is Yang Hansen of the Portland Trail Blazers, born Jun 26, 2005, while Brook Lopez of the LA Clippers, born Apr 1, 1988, is the oldest at 38. The average age across the group is 27.2.

Almost entirely a center's height
Ten of the 11 players listed here are centers, with Lauri Markkanen of the Utah Jazz the lone forward. That near-total concentration at center reflects how 7'1" tends to be deployed: rim protection, interior presence, and the physical demands of playing in the paint. There are no guards at this height on current rosters.
Colleges and birthplaces in this group
Duke and Stanford each produced 2 players in this group, with Arizona, Creighton, Gonzaga, Vanderbilt, and Virginia each represented once. Two players — Rudy Gobert and Yang Hansen — did not attend a U.S. college program.
Seven of the 11 were born in the United States, 2 were born in France (including Maxime Raynaud, born in Paris, and Rudy Gobert, born in France), and 1 — Lauri Markkanen — was born in Jyvaskyla, Finland. Birthplaces span multiple U.S. states as well as Europe, reflecting the international reach of the modern roster.
The age range across these eleven players
Brook Lopez, wearing #11 for the LA Clippers, is 38 — the oldest player at this height. At the other end, Yang Hansen (#16, Portland Trail Blazers) is just 21. Several players — including Chet Holmgren, Dereck Lively II, Mark Williams, and Ryan Kalkbrenner — are 24, giving the group a notable cluster of players in the early part of their careers alongside veterans like Lopez and Rudy Gobert (#27), who is 34.
