Top 10 biggest hand sizes of NBA players in history
8. Julius Erving
Hand length: 9.5 inches
Hand span: 11.75 inches
“If you ever notice Dr. J’s hand, his thumb is so far away from this [index] finger, which gives him a better grip and wider span so that he can pick a ball up off the dribble and do anything he wants to do with it,” Michael Jordan said about Erving’s hand size.
The first-ever free-throw line dunk is widely attributed to Dr. J from the 1976 ABA dunk contest. His firm grip, combined with his large hands, made his iconic dunks possible.
