Yes. Bhullar doesn’t have to necessarily jump to block shots aimed at the 10 foot high ring that is just two and a half feet above his head. Also, at 360 pounds, his mammoth bulk automatically makes him a shot-altering presence in the paint. Opponents have to think twice before trying to score over his 9 foot standing vertical reach and 7ft 9 inch horizonal wingspan. This is one reason why the Indo-Canadian led his New Mexico State University college team in blocks per game.
