Wemby has no hops. He starts at 7’4” and jumps to like 7’8”. Plenty of smaller nba player can jump that high, it just takes a millisecond longer to get there bc they have to fly.but if they time it right…
I mean on this specific kind of shot, at a certain point he’d just be moving the ball further and further away from the hoop and making it a more difficult and awkward shot the higher he goes.
If he jumped as high as he could and fully extended his arms, the ball would be like 12+ feet off the ground and he’d just have to awkwardly try to shoot the the ball downwards into the rim as opposed to using his normal/traditional shot mechanics.
