NBA · Uconn had it's measurements done yesterday (page 1)

BRIGGS @ 10/9/2003 6:52 PM
Charie Villenueva was the tallest player on the team at 6-10 1/2 in bare feet 242 and a 37 1/2 inch vertical leap but a weak bench press of 245

Emeka Okafor was 6-9 263 no shoes 36 inch vertical leap also said he had the strongest bench press of 425 pounds

Ben Gordon 6-1 1/2 205 it also lists Ben as having a 45 inch vertical leap and a bench press of 305 he is the third strongest guy on the team behind Shammon Tooles with a bench press of 380 pounds but he is 6-5 235

It sounds like Emeka is a Shaq from the PF position. I wonder how many NBA players are that strong weight lifting wise?

Pretty cool stuff also had time measurements in the 5 mile run.

Thats a great bench press number with how long his arms are. Good leaper, very good height. 6'9 with no shoes makes him a legit 6'10. I wouldn't take him if McDyess recovers this year. One of the 6'9 (howard) high school kids or Ben Gorden makes the most sense.
