Basketball is for the tall

For the basketball fans, they may not agree that basketball is a sport for tall players. Ask Stephen Curry and he may also disagree. There are small players who became popular in the NBA. Small in the sense that they were below 6 feet in height.

In our local professional league called Philippine Basketball Association, the most valuable player for several years now is the guy named Junmar Fajardo who stands 5 feet 10 inches. He is one of the tallest, if not the tallest, in the league among the local players. What can a small player do against a giant like Fajardo in the court? Just watch Fajardo dunk the ball. In basketball, height is might that tall players are making it look easy to play the game.
