LOOK: Adou Thiero pushing toward 46-inch vertical
There's not a bigger wildcard on the Kentucky basketball roster than soon-to-be sophomore Adou Thiero, who now has a 46-inch vertical.
Thiero vertical jump now 46 😳🔥
- Thread starter JST390-2
- Start date
Breakout year ahead for Adou. And Onyenso. Excited to see it.
I'm more concerned if he worked on his shooting and ball handling.
I don't believe the 46" vertical jump. But also don't care if it's true or not. I'm excited to see how Thiero has seasoned.
Kid can BLOW UP this year! Gotta get that consistency down!
I wonder what Cals vertical is. You know, cause he’s so fat. I bet it’s low.
i always thought thiero just had a lil somthing different. im hoping for a breakout year
Dude needs to tighten up his handle then skies the limit, seemed to have a great motor and athleticism.
Sometimes I wish there was an unlike button.
Excited to see what this kid can do. He has. A bright future.
Don’t give a 55 inch flying F what our coaches vertical is.
This. He showed some nice bounce there, but not anything even close to 46” level explosiveness. Call me a skeptic on this claim.
I think both could be good this year.
But I do question the 46”. His feet got up to where his groin was when he landed. So unless he is now 7’+, then no.
People on this site complain because no players develop here, and then when it looks like a few might, they bitch because we didn't recruit over them. Make up your mind.
FWIW, the highest vertical ever recorded in the entire history of the NBA combine is 48” inches. Does that jump look only 2 inches less than the highest ever recorded?
This is some obvious bullshit being peddled here.

I may be just as excited to see more Thiero as the freahman. IF HE GETS MIN, ugh. Something tells me it won't be much more than last year. Kid has some D Wade to his game, IMO.
Said he was working toward a 46” vertical. Only 18” to go.
Love to see this kid have a great year and play the PF position and push Bradshaw to backup. That would be great /
I would ❤️ love ❤️ for thiero to return again, then get drafted higher on all the bitches that jumped ship this past year.
We gotta start taking more guys like him. Not the highest rated kid but has potential to become a very good player over time. Cal has to recruit like he used to if he wants to make it with how things are now with NIL and the portal.
No need to throw shade at Bradshaw, he's done nothing wrong.
He has a 46" vertical leap but his feet barely leave the floor on his jumper, so what's the point?
I mean, I assume it's a jumper. Can you fit a piece of paper between his feet and the floor when he releases the ball?

I've watched this 10 times now and there's just no way he's almost 4 feet off the ground. I'd say closer to 36 than 46. Anyway, as Collins proved, vertical isn't everything.
