Does Shaedon Sharpe Really Have a 49 Inch Vertical?? Is Anybody in the NBA Even Close to That?

The point of this video is to bring attention to how easy it is for people to believe vertical tests coming from a few sources that catch traction and are repeated enough to become fact, in addition to how easily vertical can be manipulated. For example, Zach LaVine can jump noticeably higher than Michael Jordan, even though Jordan’s was “measured” at a 48 and LaVine’s is alleged to be a 46 (which is believable based on the level of dunks he can do). People speak about Jordan’s vertical like it’s undoubtedly true, despite the fact that records were poorly kept back then and comparisons to similar players demonstrate how they jump much higher but have a “lower” vertical. I learned this when I went to a gym near me and tested a 48 inch vert, just for a bunch of dunkers to comment on my videos that they could tell from eye test alone that was false. And they were right. To this day, my trainer claims everything was right about this test, but it was clear something somewhere went awry. As sports fans we need to learn from my story and other similar ones like Keon Johnson and Shaedon Sharpe, in order to be skeptical of players alleged verticals. Comparisons to other players and head height relative to the rim can be very useful tools for this. Thanks for watching, and let me know any suggestions you might have for other videos.
