13-Year-Old Jeremy Gohier Goes VIRAL for His Towering 7′3″ Height and Dunking All Over Opponents
Thirteen-year-old Jeremy Gohier's viral rise in basketball, standing at 7'3", sparks excitement about his potential in the sport and future in the NBA.
Jeremy Gohier is not your average 13-year-old basketball player. In basketball, height has always been an advantage, but it has never been as striking as in the case of the young Canadian prodigy. Standing tall at 7 feet 3 inches, Gohier towers over his peers on the basketball court, making him an imposing figure and a viral sensation.
Hailing from Quebec, Gohier has drawn comparisons to another tall Canadian, Olivier Rioux, the world's tallest teenager who is set to begin his freshman season at the University of Florida. This trend of exceptionally tall players emerging from Quebec has sparked curiosity and amazement in the basketball community, with many wondering what secrets lie within the waters of La Belle Province that nurture such towering talents.
At his young age, Gohier is already making waves with his extraordinary height, but what sets him apart is his skill and coordination on the court. Unlike many young players of his stature, Gohier demonstrates a level of control and finesse that is rare for someone his age. His ability to dominate games with not just his height but also his basketball IQ and technique has caught the attention of scouts and fans.
As a Class of 2029 recruit, Gohier still has a long journey ahead of him before he can consider his future in college basketball. However, with his recent recognition through the Petro-Canada FACE grant, which will allow him to compete at the highest levels of travel basketball across North America, Gohier's path is paved with opportunities to further develop his skills and showcase his talent on a larger stage.
Looking ahead, it seems likely that Gohier will follow in the footsteps of many promising young athletes and make the transition to a top high school basketball academy in the United States, such as IMG. With his combination of size, skill, and potential, Jeremy Gohier is undoubtedly a name to remember in the basketball world.
Well, he is not the only young sensation who attracted basketball enthusiasts to his astonishing height at such a young age. During June this year, China's 7-foot-3 teen basketball star, Zhang Ziyu made headlines for towering over her competitors on the court during the FIBA Under-18 Women’s Asia Cup in Shenzhen.
Dubbed the “female Yao Ming” in China, the 17-year-old showcases her exceptional size and reach as she dominates the game with remarkable ease. With her towering height, Zhang not only intercepted passes and shots effortlessly but also exhibited impressive scoring skills, as demonstrated by her impeccable performance in the tournament, shooting 9-for-9 from the field for 19 points in just 13 minutes in the opening game against Indonesia.
