The future of the NBA is very bright and many promising young stars will enter the league over the next several seasons.
But few of them will be as big as Jeremy Gohier.
A video shared by MSHTV, per Courtside Films, features footage of the 13-year-old Gohier playing basketball.
He moves across the court well and shows a load of potential, but the most amazing thing about him is his size.
Gohier is already seven-foot-three and absolutely towers over the competition.

When a seventh grader is seven-foot-three, the league immediately notices.
There simply aren’t many young people built like Gohier, who hails from Quebec.
For comparison, Rookie of the Year Victor Wembanyama is seven-foot-four and Gohier is years younger than him.
The height difference between the Canadian player and his peers is startling and NBA fans are already imagining what he could do on the court.
Of course, it takes more than height to find success in the league.
Gohier will have to work on his handles, his speed, and pretty much every other aspect of his game in the years ahead.
But he’s a very young man and has plenty of time to work on his skills if he decides to pursue a life of professional basketball.
Gohier seems to have good coordination, which is surprising considering his size and age.
It’s clear there are already many upsides to Gohier and he’s only in middle school.
If he continues down this path, he will be a top recruit for high schools, college, and then the NBA.
