Former basketball player Spencer Haywood’s extraordinarily big hands turned out to be a blessing for him inside the basketball court. How big are his hands and fingers? Let’s find out the size and whether a medical condition caused them to be so big.
Retired basketball player Spencer Haywood has become a subject of gossip after Winning Time featured an episode on him, which featured the story of whether or not he tried to kill the lakers.
It turns out the legend about Spencer trying to kill the Lakers is completely fabricated. However, the former athlete actually hired a mobster to take revenge against Paul Westhead after the coach fired Haywood from the Lakers in 1979. Luckily, he didn’t go all the way with the plan after his mother persuaded him to cancel the hit.
Further, Spencer is also gaining traction for the huge size of his hands and arms. Let’s find out if there is a medical condition behind the size of his hands or if they are naturally big.
Spencer Haywood’s hands are naturally big which was always an advantage for him in the basketball court.
The former athlete’s bio doesn’t show any medical history that could explain his extraordinarily huge hands. However, he is not the player with the biggest hands in NBA history. In fact, he is not even in the top 10.
Similarly, considering Haywood’s tall height of 6 feet 8 inches, his long arms don’t come as a surprise. Likewise, the basketball athlete also has equally long fingers, extending several inches in length. For now, the precise details of Spencer’s hands and fingers size are not available.
Nonetheless, they might have played a significant role in making Spencer the legend he is today.
Spencer was a small child when he circumcised himself with the help of his brothers.
Haywood mentioned in his autobiography that he got interested in circumcision after seeing his circumcise other children. His mother was working with a bible group, which attracted Haywood’s attention. Eventually, he used a razor and, with the help of his brothers, succeeded in circumcising himself. Spencer also admitted that he later went to a doctor and got it cleaned up.
