Parsons: I was physically tested wearing anklets and two or three pairs of socks, and I was an inch taller.

6686 Sports reported on November 6 that the USA Today basketball program "Run It Back" released a program clip. Former NBA player Chandler Parsons revealed an interesting story about his shoe-wearing physical test during his playing days.

Chandler Parsons: The so-called "shoe" measurement at the time of the NBA physical examination was not just as simple as putting on shoes. I would wrap my ankles and wear two or three pairs of socks. With one set, I could "grow" an extra inch in height.

Louis Williams: Yeah, what I was going to say was that they wanted us to look bigger back then. They didn't care about the facts at all, they just wanted us to look like giants. Now I guess they want precision.
