A unique French prospect always drew attention due to his physique, and Wembanyama's true height is one of the most interesting topics.

So, how tall is Victor Wembanyama for real?

The recent report from ESPN's Brian Windhorst revealed that the 19-year-old Wembanyama's height is 7-foot-5 with his shoes on.

Recently, Mike Finger from ExpressNews reported that Wembanyama is 7'3.5" (222.3 cm) without his shoes on.

Given his imposing presence, it is almost impossible not to spot Wembanyama wherever he goes - whether on-court or off-court.

He is set to be a big star in the NBA over the next decade and beyond and has unsurprisingly started piling on those multi-million endorsement deals.

And in these days of widespread online betting advertisements around American sports, you can almost bet that Wembanyama would be a popular option for sportsbooks looking to leverage his popularity to promote their betting offers for NBA punters.

In October, Wembanyama sent the NBA world into a frenzy with two monster performances against G League Ignite, where he averaged 36.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 4.5 blocks.

Back then, Wembanyama named a similar number when talking about true height without shoes.

"I am 7-foot-3 (2.21-meter) bare feet," the French unicorn confirmed himself while talking to the ESPN crew. "Actually, I have never measured myself with shoes. But it's [height] gotta be like 7-foot-4 or 7-foot-5, I guess."

Before heading to China, Tacko Fall was the only player in the NBA who was taller than 7-foot-3.

Boban Marjanovic and Kristaps Porzingis are the same height as Wembanyama, as both Europeans are listed at 7-foot-3.
