“List of shortest players in National Basketball Association history”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

This is a complete listing of the shortest players in National Basketball Association history at a listed height of {{convert|5|ft|9|in|cm}} or shorter. Only 25 players in NBA history have been at a listed height of 5' 9" or shorter.^[1] Two are currently active. The shortest NBA player to be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is Calvin Murphy at 5' 9". With one exception, Dino Martin (a forward), all of the players listed here have played or play the position of point guard. When 5'9" Isaiah Thomas tipped off against 5'9" Tyler Ullis, it was speculated to be the shortest combined jump ball ever.^[2]
