Undersized would be relative to the position right? So for PG, 6′1 and under, for SG 6′3 and under, for SF 6′5 and under, for PF 6′7 and under, for C 6′9 and under?
PG: Chris Paul
He’s 6 feet tall, and he does everything you’d want a PG to do. Score, shoot, defend, pass, makes your team better all at a high level.
SG: Jerry West
He was 6′3, and averaged 27 ppg. Could score, shoot, pass and defend all at a high level.
SF: Elgin Baylor
He was 6′5, quite undersized for a SF yet still averaged 27 PPG and 13 RPG. Could score, rebound and pass very well especially for his position.
PF: Charles Barkley
He’s listed at 6′6 but probably really around 6′4 is what players always said. Despite being undersized, Barkley was a great scorer, rebounder and passer for his position.
C: Bill Russell
Yes Russell was undersized! He was 6′9. Despite this height disadvantage, he’s one of the greatest defenders, rebounders, passers and team players ever for his position.
