After settling the accommodations, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the players arrived at the gym for physical measurements, which included basic data like height, weight, and wingspan.
The weighing of Charles Barkley became the most sensational event of the day's physical measurements; everyone gathered around the scale, speculating about how much Barkley actually weighed.
Typically, guards with a height of 6 feet 4 or 6 feet 5 have a standard weight of around 220 pounds.
But with Barkley's ample rear and rounded shoulders and back, there was no way he weighed just 220 pounds.
Everyone started placing bets.
"250 pounds!" Ewing was somewhat conservative and kind-hearted.
He thought that with Barkley's limited height, it couldn't be possible for him to weigh more than himself, right?
"260 pounds." Chris Mullin stared at Barkley's rear for a long time before making his estimate.
"275 pounds." That was the guess from Labis and Alari, which was quite a bit of weight.
