DJ Stephens, previously of the University of Memphis, is working out for teams as the NBA draft approaches and he turned some heads today during his tryout with the Brooklyn Nets. According to Chad Ford, Stephens recorded a 46-inch vertical jump and claims that it is the highest vertical ever recorded by the NBA. The jump broke broke Kenny Gregory’s 45.5-inch record which was set back in 2001.
