D-Wade’s NBA player profile states that his height is 1.93 meters, that is, 6’4. Interestingly enough, the WNBA registers Candace as 6’4. But, here’s the twist: Wade’s height might not be completely correct! At least that’s what Parker claimed on her recent Instagram post.

Thus, she captioned: “The age old debate….. who’s taller!!? My point that NBA players be lying about the height. Both of us “listed” at 6’4 Men always lie about height or nawwwww?”
