Everyone loves to talk about Victor’s weight so I went to work and gathered data to show his measurements in context of all NBA players.
For these stats I’m using Victor latest weight of 105kg as well as his height measured by the Spurs of 2.22m.
I added a few player names for comparison, as well as a linear regression analysis (the line) that shows the predicted weight of a player at any height.
Victor is clearly far from the line but he also isn’t out of the realm of what’s normal in the NBA, and I think it’s also harder to tell what weight players this tall should be.
Anyway I hope you guys like it !

So Yao Ming and Manut Bill were taller than Wemby? Am I reading this right?
What does this signify?
where zion?
But what does it all mean?!?
Who’s the furthest to the right? That’s a big boy

Yes he is. The “norm” is the dense part along the centerline of that distribution. It is very clear to the naked eye. Just eyeballing the chart, Vic is around 98th percentile. He’s not a super freaky outlier, but he is way out there. If you plotted this on a distribution chart, he is going to be right at the end of the curve where it goes flat before the extreme outliers.
Is the bottom left dot spud Webb? That’s the only one that comes to mind
