That time I saw Justin Patton, Chris Mullin called him ‘Marcus Camby’
Jeffrey ArmstrongJustin Patton is one big man.
The first time I saw him, the first thing I said was, “Goddamn, he’s tall!” and then immediately opened up the Google to find out that he was only 19. I learned that the Creighton product has a 7’3 wingspan, a standing reach of over 9’3, a standing vertical of 26 inches, and a max vertical leap of 30.5. All packed into a nearly 7-foot, then 216-pound (now 229-pound) frame.
It was quite a night for the redshirt freshman when the Blue Jays came to St. John’s University on January 4, 2017. It was one highlight after another.
