Body/Frame

NBA teams are in love with player’s wingspan. In the modern NBA, switching everything has just about become the norm. Coaches and GMs crave players with long arms and big bodies because they can guard multiple positions.

At 6-foot-6 with a 6-foot-11 wingspan, Romeo Langford has the ideal body type for a modern shooting guard.

For the most part, this sets the Indiana guard apart from the rest of the field in terms of defensive potential. The only wing who possesses similar measurements to Langford is former North Carolina freshman Nassir Little, who is 6-foot-6 with a 7-foot-1 wingspan.

Langford definitely needs to add muscle, but that is normal for most 19-year-old prospects.

There is a lot to like when looking at how Romeo Langford’s athleticism could translate to the next level.
