The Greek freak effortlessly glides down the court with an incredibly long stride. I think that he could run a decent 800m time, but is he too big for the mile? What do you think he could run?
On a side note, who do you think the fastest miler in the NBA would be?
He's too big. Could probably go 1:49.XX in the 800. 4:30 in the mile.
Steph Curry gotta be the fastest in the mile
4:23

Did you see the video of Carl Lewis running at 2:16 in the 800? And James Lofton, with exceptional form, winning that race running something like 2:03 i think it was? And that race involved only world class athletes.
It's kind of like the myth busters of sports.

Did you read his comment? He said he's too big for the mile and you come up with an 800 meter race and on top of that his 800 meter prediction for Giannis is much faster than 2:03.

Exactly -- he's saying that Giannis would be slower than that.

So a giant basketball player is faster at the 800 than Carl Lewis, THE Carl Lewis? You really think that?
Didn't 7'1" Wilt Chamberlain run a 1:58 880?
The NBA advanced stats track speed and distance covered per game. My pick would probably be TJ McConnell. He had the fastest average speed of any guy who averaged more than 2 miles run per game.
Other contenders would probably be
Patty Mills
Zach LaVine
CJ McCollum
Jimmy Butler
Goran Dragic
Dwight Howard looks to me like someone who could pop a sub-14 5k.
