Well now, if ya wonderin’ who’s the heaviest fella in the NBA right now, I reckon I can tell ya. It ain’t no secret, really. The man sittin’ at the top of the scale is Jusuf Nurkić, from the Portland Trail Blazers. That fella is a big one, comin’ in at 7 feet tall and weighin’ a whopping 290 pounds! Now, that’s a whole lotta muscle and bones packed into one big ol’ body, ain’t it?
But now, don’t go thinkin’ Jusuf is the only one who’s heavy in the NBA. Nah, there are a few more big boys out there, weighin’ in at 300 pounds and beyond. Now, I know what you’re thinkin’—”How do they even move with all that weight?” Well, I’ll tell ya, these players are built like brick houses. They sure know how to use their size to their advantage on the court.

Now, let’s talk a bit about some of the other heavy hitters. There’s a man named Tacko Fall. He’s not playin’ much these days, but don’t ya forget about him. He’s a whole 7 foot 6 inches tall, and when you add up all his weight, he’s sittin’ pretty at 311 pounds. That’s even more than Jusuf! Tacko, bless his heart, is one of the heaviest players the NBA has ever seen. Ain’t that somethin’?
Ya might be wonderin’ why the NBA don’t put no weight limit on these players. Well, it ain’t like they can just pick whoever they want based on their weight. The NBA’s got all sorts of different players, big and small, tall and short, and they all bring somethin’ special to the game. Some of these heavy guys, they use their weight for strength, to knock folks around in the paint, and others just take up a lotta space in the middle, makin’ it hard for anyone to get by ‘em.
Now, I know some folks might think, “Well, is all that weight healthy for these fellas?” It sure is a lot to carry around, but these players, they spend a lotta time in the gym. They train hard, lift weights, and make sure their bodies can handle all that extra mass. But, like with anythin’, it’s all about balance. Too much weight, and it might slow ’em down, but just the right amount, and they can use it to their advantage.
So, who else is heavy in the NBA? There’s a man named Boban Marjanović, a big ol’ fella from Serbia. He’s about 7 foot 4 inches tall and tips the scales at around 290 pounds. Now, when you see Boban walkin’ around, you can’t help but stare. He’s just so dang big, you almost think he might break the floor under his feet! But don’t let that size fool ya. Boban’s got some pretty good moves for a big guy, and he’s known to be a gentle giant off the court.
And don’t forget about the likes of DeAndre Jordan, who’s another big man in the league. He’s 6 foot 11 inches and weighs about 280 pounds. He’s not as heavy as some of the others, but he’s still one mighty big fella, and he sure knows how to use that weight to block shots and grab rebounds. You wouldn’t wanna run into him in the paint, that’s for sure!

Well, there you have it, folks. Jusuf Nurkić, Tacko Fall, Boban Marjanović, and a few others—these are some of the heaviest fellas in the NBA. They sure make the game interestin’, don’t they? It’s somethin’ to see how these big guys use their weight and strength to make a real impact on the court. And next time you watch a game, just remember that it ain’t always about speed or agility. Sometimes, it’s just about bein’ big and strong enough to push around your opponents!
