Are we surprised? Isn't his wingspan like 8 ft or something silly?
Yes. We are surprised. We generally call three standard deviations from the mean an outlier already. 5 doesn't make any fucking sense. The odds being 5 standard deviations away is roughly 1/3.5 million
Have you tried looking at the multiples of the interquartile range? I know it has it's foibles, but maybe worth a go?
It's not that simple. Chet has an absurd wingspan of his own, moves faster, plays a more rim-centric role on defense...and he's not even close to Wemby on this list.
You also have to be quick and have absurd agility.
