Chris Paul II, son of San Antonio Spurs star Chris Paul, has been surprising many since making his freshman debut for the Campbell Hall Vikings despite his small size. During a video he posted on his Instagram page on Saturday, the NBA superstar shared an important piece of advice for his son.

"My son is small, right, he's small just like I was," Chris Paul said in the video. "I've talked to him about the training and how hard it is and this and that, and the third. But he's finally starting to see a little bit of change, right, in his game or whatever, in his ability, and all I keep telling him is just keep stacking days, just keep stacking days.

Soon enough, Chris Paul II reacted to the video and told his dad that he was actually taller in reality.

"I’m 6ft😭," said the freshman guard.

The younger Paul is part of the Class of 2028, which means he still has plenty of room to grow, both in height and talent. He is still unranked and unrated, but 247Sports listed him at 5-11 in height, just an inch short of what he claimed in the comments section. He is still growing though, and this listing may have been obsolete already.
