Gilbert Arenas discussed the potential of players utilizing height-enhancing surgeries to join the NBA. Vlad highlighted a modern surgical procedure that involves inserting metal rods into the legs, potentially increasing a person’s height by up to a foot. Arenas expressed skepticism, questioning the impact on athletic performance. He emphasized that gaining height through surgery might compromise essential skills like running and overall athleticism, making it potentially futile for basketball. The conversation expanded to natural ways of achieving height advantages through selective breeding. Arenas noted a trend where athletes are increasingly partnering with taller individuals to produce taller offspring, citing the Ball family's strategic pairing. Despite innovations in height surgery, Arenas stressed that athleticism and skill development remain crucial for basketball success.
