As a teenager, TJ Shorts was considered too short for basketball at 1.75 meters, which is why he was denied the NBA. But now he has won everything there is to win with Telekom Baskets Bonn – and his story is not over yet.
Because a basketball player named TJ Shorts, who is only 1.75 meters tall, naturally doesn’t accept any name jokes, here are two more myths that need to be cleared up. First of all (and greetings to Uli Hoeneß, who claimed this in 2010): basketball is far from being a disembodied sport. Anyone who has watched a game from the district league upwards will remember flying elbows and plenty of unpunished pushing. Second: There are really good basketball players who are hardly taller than Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
