Who are the Tallest Players in NBA 2K21?
Throughout the course of NBA history, we have seen some staggering players use their size to devastating effect, and it seems impossible to defend against them at certain times. So, who are the tallest players in NBA 2K21?
Here are the tallest players in NBA 2K21.
Tacko Fall (7’5″)
• Team: Boston Celtics
• Overall: 70
• Position: C
• Best Stats: 85 Standing Dunk, 82 Defensive Rebound, 80 Block
The recently graduated UCF center showcased his talents during last year’s March Madness match up against Zion Williamson’s Duke Blue Devils. Tacko Fall is listed at a staggering 7’5″, the tallest player in the modern NBA.
After the 23-year-old Senegal native was surprisingly not drafted by any team during this year’s draft, Fall landed on the Celtics’ Summer League roster and started turning heads for all the right reasons. With the NBA holding an average height of 6-foot-7 (201cm), Fall clearly stands out as a glaring exception. He took advantage of the opportunity and ended up averaging respectable numbers of 7.2 points on 77.3 percent shooting, 4.0 rebounds, and 1.4 blocked shots in 12.6 minutes per game.
NBA 2K21 players can benefit from Fall’s in-game abilities, as his 85 standing dunk, 82 defensive rebounds, and 80 blocks make him an above-average interior player at both ends of the court. Additionally, his 80 overall durabilities will allow you to let Fall bang around inside.

Boban Marjanovic (7’4″)
• Team: Dallas Mavericks
• Overall: 75
• Position: C
• Best Stats: 95 Standing Dunk, 90 Defensive Rebound, 87 Offensive Rebound
Carrying a 7-foot-4 and 290-pound frame, Boban Marjanovic scored a career-best 8.2 points per game across the 22 matchups he played for the Sixers.
Boban is so massive that he doesn’t even have to jump much to dunk the ball, if at all, and his large hands mean he can be a go-to scorer in the post as well. Boban is a productive role player, and there is currently no other player at his height in the NBA. He is somewhat of a veteran in the league, coming over from Serbia in his late 20s and proving himself to be an extremely efficient backup center.
With his 95 standing dunk, 90 defensive rebounds, and 87 offensive rebounds, NBA 2K21 players should consider the Mavericks center as being elite-grade in the paint.
Kristaps Porzingis (7’3″)
• Team: Dallas Mavericks
• Overall: 87
• Position: C/PF
• Best Stats: 98 Offensive Consistency, 98 Shot IQ, 98 Hands
Kristaps Porzingis is a multi-talented player with both length and shooting touch. Dubbed “The Unicorn,” he has risen to become one of the NBA’s best PF since his surprising draft, which saw the Knicks take him fourth.
Porzingis has played 261 games throughout his career, averaging 18.6 PPG and 7.7 RPG so far. His ability to shoot from the outside and still play like a big man is his key trait, and he had already made an All-Star Team in 2018. Porzingis may stand 7’3″, but he is not the tallest player in the NBA.
As one of the league’s elite interior youngsters, Kristaps’ 98 offensive consistency, 98 shot IQ, and 98 hands attributes are not exaggerated in the slightest. His 90 standing dunk and 83 three-point shot show that he may be one of the more problematic players to guard at all court ranges.
Kristaps Porzingis has currently found shelter with the Dallas Mavericks, where he’s expected to team up with rookie sensation Luka Doncic and lead the franchise to its long-lost glory once again.
Luke Kornet (7’2″)
• Team: Chicago Bulls
• Overall: 73
• Position: C/PF
• Best Stats: 90 Intangibles, 98 Shot IQ, 85 Hands
Luke Kornet was picked up by the New York Knicks for the Summer League in 2017 after going undrafted and soon signed a two-way contract with the franchise. He debuted the Knicks against the Toronto Raptors and finished with 11 points and 10 rebounds in 22 minutes and became only the second Knicks rookie to finish with a double-double debut. He also recorded four blocks which made him the only player in NBA history to sink three three-pointers and record four blocks in the same game.
He soon signed with the Chicago Bulls as a free agent. Despite not being a regular in the starting lineup, Kornet has impressed the Chicago faithful whenever given an opportunity.
While his best attributes of 90 intangibles, 98 shot IQ, and 85 hands don’t describe the full picture of what Kornet brings to NBA 2K21, adding in his 83 free throws, 70 three-point shot, and 77 close range showcases that he’s a three-level threat.
Bol Bol (7’2″)
• Team: Denver Nuggets
• Height: 71
• Position: C
• Best Stats: 86 Block, 80 Stamina, 85 Intangibles
Despite being one of the more hyped prospects in the NBA draft, Bol Bol slipped below only to be picked 44th. He can dribble, pass the ball, and shoot three-pointers at a relatively more efficient rate than other players his size in his defense. Hindered by injuries, he got to play just nine games at the University of Oregon, where he averaged an impressive 21 points, 9.6 rebounds, and 2.7 blocks per game. This caused Bol Bol to drop all the way into the second round all while trending worldwide, eventually picked by the Denver Nuggets.
Bol Bol has shown flashes of talent in the short amounts of time he has been on the court, but he has a long way to go to earn his coach’s trust. Bol Bol is only averaging 8.0 MPG through his first 2 seasons in the NBA, and despite nailing 44.4% of his threes third season, he has not been able to break through just yet. Still, Bol is the best player in the NBA at 7’2″, and he is only 21 years of age.
This up-and-coming player shows some youthful potential with his 86 block, 80 stamina, and 85 intangibles and shows potential at several scoring levels, as shown by his 78 close shots, 79 mid-range, and 77 three-point shots. After passing the rock to Bol Bol, feel free to exploit defenses all over the court, especially as the Sudanese center moves closer to his 83 potential ratings.
Boasting tremendous size, these players will help you find success with their height, wingspan, and ability to see over the opposition. Could you hurry up and try them in MyTEAM?
