This chart shows the average standing reach, in inches, of NBA Draft Combine prospects grouped by listed position. It covers 1,151 prospects measured between the 2001 and 2023 combines.
Centers had the longest average standing reach at 110.7 inches (about 9 feet 3 inches), followed by C-PF prospects at 109.2 inches. Point guards had the shortest at 96.9 inches, and combo guards (PG-SG and SG-PG) averaged about 99 inches.
Standing reach is a common proxy for rim protection and finishing range, so the chart helps put a prospect's measurement in positional context.
