American former Basketball player. In 2002 a Sports Writer said Barkley was "Officially measured at 6-4 7/8 inches".
I'm 6-4 3/4 [6ft 6] just sounded good coming out of college.
They lie...I’ve been measured at 6-5, 6-4 ¾. But I started in college at 6-6. (2008)
I claimed to be 6-6 when I played, but I'm only 6-5 1/2

I'm 6-4 playing guys 6'9 or 6-10 and the only way I can beat them is to out-think them, outwork them, whatever it takes. It all depends on how badly you want it.
