If someone here knows a way to make you taller!.!.!.!.they would be a millionaire! One of the best players on our high school basketball team was only 5'2"! He could dribble that ball so low and move down the court like lightning!.!.!.!.not to mention actually passing the ball under other guy's legs! Be proud of your height and learn to use it to your advantage!.!.!.!.you will grow when it is time for you to grow! :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
Sorry, but your height is something that is pretty much beyond your control!. You say you're only 12, so you'll definitely grow some more before you're out of high school, just maybe not before basketball season!. If you have tall parents then you can expect to grow a lot more, but if your parents are short then you may be out of luck!. If you want to look taller you can buy things to put in your shoes, although I'm not entirely sure how that'll affect your game!. I suggest just working on working on a different part of your game than center for now (there a plenty of short people that got drafted into the NBA because they're great PG's)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Sorry, there is no way of getting taller -- except at your age you still might be growing, so you might not have reached your eventual height!.
The best thing is to stand up tall and have the best posture you can! Walk with strength and positive energy!.
In basketball, a smaller person can have advantages over a taller person!. You might be quicker, and more agile!. Use your height to your advantage!.
Good luck!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Stop stressing, your 12, eventually your gona go through a growth spurt, probably over the summer!.
When was the last time you went to your pediatrician!?
Ask your mom to take you and see how much you have grown since you were last there!. Its not that your not growing, its just that your not growing as fast as you would like!.

jump ALOT! in fact since you're short you should start practicing but jump as you shoot (if you havn't established that already) i'm short too but i'm on my school's basketball team, just keep practicing and jump alot!. you should actually start to work on your lay-ups!. for some reason short people seem to be good at that!? drink alot of milk too!. good luck! :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
I'm 14 and I'm 4'11"!. I was just about your height when I was 12, probably less!. The truth is, nothing!. All you can do is eat a lot of protien with carbs!. That's what my doctor told me!.
It could take forever to get a growth spurt, example: me, lol!. You just gotta be patient, and don't think anything of it!.
People adore the short <3 =PWww@Answer-Health@Com

You have MUCH growing ahead of you! My hubby grew until he was 20! I now young men that do not really stretch up until 16-17!. Just be healthy, exercise and eat right so that you can make the most of that growth spurt when it happens!. For now - lifting a few weights will improve your posture and make you appear taller!. Just be patient!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

just so you know, when i was 12 i loved it when guys were shorter!. it freaked me out when they were so much taller than i was!. and if you are good @ basketball then it doesnt matter how tall you are!. and you can move around easier when you are shortWww@Answer-Health@Com
I'm a 5 foot nine short dude on my basketball team!. I'm short on my team!. The only way to keep up is to work on how high you can jump!. So just work on that for a while, like jumping rope helps!. Running helps too, it did for me at least!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Hey dude
Wow that's actually rather short but don't worry you'll have about four more growth spurts!. Just drink milk, yogurt, cheese etc to improve bone growth!. Besides you haven't hit puberty yet!. Just wait it out!.
