dont sweat it your 5-9 and only 13. just keep workin hard on all your skillz. u dont stop growing untill u r approx 21 so u'll be aight. u may not be no shaq or yao but a low 6 foot figure is still enough to be one fine baller.

Well, i play with one 6'1" person, one 6'2" person and one 6'3" and bunch of other guys that almost as tall as me. It's hard for me to get a good position cuz there's a lot of big people too.

that rebounding over 6'2 kids all the time thing could be your skill or position on the box out. if you have good position you will get the board.

Wat's up

i'm 13 yrs old and i'm 5'9"

i read the height section and stuff but it's hard for me to go to sleep for more than 5-6 hrs

Is there additional way to grow?

Is lifting weight bad for growth since it puts strain to your bones?

Just askin

im a 13 year old boy im only 5 foot five my dad is five foot six will i get taller

no one can help with growing taller. im on here since 4am so i cant sleep either. its more important how good you can play than how tall you are. look at the millions of tall people that cant play ball.

yeah but look at all of the good basketball players that are too small to play any serious ball. if they had height they would have some kind of career. seven foot people that can play decent ball will be picked up by some minor league team at the least and coached into something. You wil find that if you have height in basketball, you will have an easier time. there are less people that can cover you and block your shot and rebound over you. as a guard, you can be covered by other guards (usually the smallest players on the team) and can be covered shot wise and height wise by everyone else on the opposing team. As center you are usually the tallest person on the team and can't be covered too well by a guard, usually only the other center can cover you well.
