Alright, let’s gab about these big fellas in the NBA, the ones who make the whole court shake when they run. We’re talkin’ about who weighs the most, you know, the real heavy hitters.
Now, I heard tell there’s this fella, Jusuf Nurkić. They say he’s a giant, seven feet tall and weighin’ in at 290 pounds. That’s like two of me, and maybe a little bit more! He’s from Bosnia, wherever that is, and some team called the Chicago Bulls picked him way back in 2014. But then, quicker than a chicken can peck corn, they sent him off to some place called Denver. Sounds like a lot of fussin’ and movin’ around to me.
- Jusuf Nurkić: 7 feet tall, 290 pounds. Big fella, real big.
Then there’s another one, Tacko Fall. Now, that’s a name you don’t hear every day. He’s 28 years old, they say. And get this, he tips the scales at 311 pounds! Mercy! That’s a whole lotta man. I reckon he could eat a whole watermelon in one bite, seeds and all. Don’t know much about him, but 311 pounds, that’s somethin’ else.
- Tacko Fall: 28 years old, 311 pounds. Even bigger!
You know, these NBA fellas, they’re strong as oxen. They gotta be, runnin’ and jumpin’ and bumpin’ into each other all the time. Makes you wonder who’s the absolute heaviest of ‘em all. It’s like weighin’ hogs at the county fair, but these fellas are a whole lot taller.
So, I went and did some snoopin’, you know, askin’ around. And I heard about this fella, Oliver Miller. They called him “The Big O.” Now, he wasn’t quite as tall as the others, only 6 foot 9 inches, but he was wide as a barn door. They say he weighed up to 300 pounds during the season. Imagine that! Three hundred pounds of muscle and bone, runnin’ up and down that court. He played for some team called the Dallas Mavericks. Don’t know much about ‘em, but if they had The Big O, they musta been tough.

Now, some folks might argue about who’s really the heaviest, you know, with weights goin’ up and down. But from what I gather, it seems like Tacko Fall takes the cake, or maybe the whole darn bakery, at 311 pounds. That’s a heap of weight, no matter how you slice it. Makes you wonder how them skinny little fellas even try to guard him. Must be like tryin’ to stop a runaway tractor.
But you know, weight ain’t everything. These fellas gotta be quick on their feet too, gotta be able to move around like a cat, even if they’re built like a… well, like a very large, very strong somethin’. It takes more than just heft to make it in the NBA. You gotta have skill, and heart, and a whole lot of grit. But it sure don’t hurt to be a little heavy, that’s for sure. Makes it harder for the other fellas to push you around.
So, there you have it. A little rundown on the heavy hitters of the NBA. From Nurkić to Fall to The Big O, these fellas are somethin’ else. They’re big, they’re strong, and they’re a whole lot of fun to watch. Just don’t stand too close when they come runnin’ by, you might get knocked clean into next week!
Heaviest NBA Players Summary

Now, I ain’t no expert, just tellin’ it like I heard it. But one thing’s for sure, these NBA players are some big, strong fellas. And when it comes to who weighs the most, it seems like Tacko Fall takes the prize. But hey, in the NBA, things change fast. Maybe next year there’ll be someone even bigger and heavier. Wouldn’t surprise me none.
And that’s all I gotta say about that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go make some supper. All this talk about big fellas has made me hungry. I think I’ll have some fried chicken and mashed potatoes, somethin’ hearty to stick to your ribs, you know?
