Olivier Rioux knows he’s got a height advantage playing basketball against fellow 12-year-olds and not afraid to show it off.
The 6’10” 12-year-old (that’s not a typo) was shown balling in France and his highlight tape is unreal.
Can’t get over how cocky this 6’10” 12 year old is playing on 8-foot rims pic.twitter.com/NA1U6VzmxC

The Canadian is dominating his opponents in France as he can dunk, block and rebound with relative ease. It’s like putting a grown man against 12-year-olds. There’s no stopping him – unless he manages to foul out or somehow he forgets how tall he is.
8-foot rims or not, Rioux is displaying some serious body control. I can’t imagine how hard it is to be that tall and have to be mobile, let alone play basketball and dominate. 6’10” is bigger than most NBA players. If he gets taller, Rioux is going to have no competition for half a decade.
