Isaiah Thomas stands at exactly 5ft 8 (172.7 cm), a height that has defined his underdog image as an elite NBA point guard. Despite his compact stature, Thomas excelled with the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers, using blistering speed and scoring prowess to become a two-time All-Star and lead the league in points per game during the 2016-17 season.
