MANILA, Philippines — Philippine basketball phenom Kai Sotto continues to grow and now stands at a monster 7 feet 3 inches.

The NBA G League Ignite big man posted new "facts" about him on his Twitter account on Thursday morning.

Apart from the height increase, Sotto also that his wingspan has also extended to 7 feet 5 inches.

The 18-year-old is currently training with Team Ignite in Walnut Creek, California in preparation for the new NBA G League season next month.

While Sotto's increase in height doesn't necessarily mean that he will definitely be drafted in the NBA, it will be a big boost for his stock.

The average height of a center in the NBA is around 6 feet 9 inches.

Sotto is in the middle of a year-long developmental program along with other elite prospects in Team Ignite.

Two-time NBA champion Brian Shaw oversees Sotto's development as head coach of Team Ignite.
