Most basketball players are about 6'9 I would like to reach 6'7 to have more consideration in my club. I'm a big fan of Lebron James I would like the same body. With 6'1 I'm short even in university and novice clubs. Even in street I find me short
do you think it's possible guys ?

If this is not a troll it is a really bad idea. LL compromises your athletic ability significantly and the new height won't help as much as that. Plus 6'1" is objectively short exactly nowhere in the world. Even among young people in the tallest areas of the Netherlands it's half an inch above average.

After LL you could be lucky if you can play basketball in the court of your neighbourhood.

And if you feel short at 6.1 in the streets a shrink may help you.

I cant tell if your a troll or not but you must some kind problem if you think your short at 6-1. You can still be great at basketball at your height, no need to be a giant. This surgery will not help you athletically, even at my height I wouldn't consider this surgery if I wanted to be athletic and do good in sports.

If you really feel bad about your height then see a therapist or something.

Even if you were magically 6-7 there's no guarantee you will be better at basketball. I played rugby for years and there were guys who were huge who technically should have been good rugby players but they couldn't play rugby to save their lives. Single attributes don't make people magically good at certain sports, it's like saying strongmen would be great at American football or rugby just because they are heavy and strong or that they could win pro arm wrestling contests, they can't! You aren't getting 6" regardless! Forget about it. Either play basketball for fun and forget about being a top level player or pick a different sport. 6-1 is a good height it's tallish without being exceptionally tall. Take up weight training and tone your body up instead that's what I would do at your height. You don't have problems!!

First of all u wont be able to play basketball. Second of all if u really got talent then ud make it regardless look at Allen iverson, Chris paul, muggsy bose, stephen curry,etc. third of all i feel u i wanna look like lebron too but his torso is longer than urs and so is his arms u will end up looking fked up and unaesthetic.

You'd be able to play basketball...wheelchair basketball, that is. 6 inches (15 cm) is going to translate to higher probability of complications and severe proportions/aesthetics issues.
