    What is his real height with no shoes? He's still listed at 6'9,its like Quinito stretching Kai's height from 7'2 to 7'4 and possibly will grow 7'5.Normal healthy people will not grow past 18,unless you have some giantism in your genes.

      pinoys have a propensity to exaggerate when it comes to height. skyway, people's park in the sky, tower of power (both benjie and the gma transmitter)

      unless there's a credible way to validate the sources, i'll just assume he's not more than 6'10.

        UP got someone else too alongside Demisana, 18-year old, 5'10" Nath Montecillo.

        Hope Monteverde could turn Demisana into his next Carl Tamayo/Kevin Quiambao. Or make him a hybrid of both.
        I hope Demisana can be developed into a big that Gilas could use for the future. UPIS might allow him to develop and make mistakes while honing his skills. Hope he can develop into a quality PF/C at the very least.

          True. Maybe they're trying to rope in people into watching the NCAA. If 6'9 or 6'10 is almost 7 feet can I describe myself then as almost 6 foot?

              Worse than the Americans who measured NBA players with shoes on,Boban who's a legit 7'3 suddenly over 7'4 in the NBA,the reasoning was you don't play on your barefeet,hence measured with shoes on.Saying you're almost 7 feet when you're at least 2-3 inches shorter is hilarious,even projecting how tall potentially a young will be is just ridiculous.I still remember when Carino in U16 he was 6'8 and lots of media people who doesn't have a degree in science speculating he will grow to 6'11 at least.Nothing will beat Quinito 2who insist to Kai he might be even 7'4,even tho Kai stopped growing at 7'2.

                  Lol.

                  But seriously, I hope a lot of our second generation players grow tall and like basketball. Of course, their development will revolve around the nurture around them.

                  I feel in 2035, we will be a force to reckon with in Fiba Asia at least.

                  • Another one who is claiming to be a legit 7ft is Jay Pangalanan,he was 6'10,only way to know is both Jay and Ladis brought in the Gilas practice and have them stand next to AK who is slightly taller than 6'10,they should be both taller than Angelo if its true.,

                      Jay Pangalangan attended the Gilas practice as well? So that's news, especially since he's from Letran.

                        Well, he just said that he's not sure about his height, but he just grew. No specifics as to height.

                          Actually even if they are 7 foot or 6'10.

                          I am more concerned in their game development.

                          Both of them are very raw

                            That's why it was good that Ladis was invited to the training pool. He could learn something, heck even play the 4 position alongside Kouame.

                              A lot of posters here predicted kai will reach at least 7'4.

                                Pangalanan's skill is only good for local leagues. He's lucky if he makes it to the PBA. Lepalam has a potential to be a national player, especially if one of the bigs (Kai or AJ) is not available.
