Tallest DI college men’s basketball players for 2023-24
T-3. Gabe Dynes (7-foot-3, 190 pounds)
2023 Gabe Dynes has committed to Youngstown State. Big pickup for the @YSUMensHoops program! A skilled 7’3 big man who makes a huge impact on both ends of the floor.
He’s also a KYIN Hoops Camp Alum! Happy for you Gabe! Go do big things! pic.twitter.com/bOo8E8Re1L

Incoming 7’3 Freshman Gabe Dynes is underrated. Dynes is a really good and versatile defender who can defend in the post and also defend in the perimeter. Dynes is also a good threat in the post. pic.twitter.com/SkFErw2z4x
