A little smaller than Reed, Eric Bledsoe makes up for his lack of height with a 40″ vertical. Bled has a higher vertical than Russell Westbrook, Blake Griffin and Gerald Green – that is pretty good company.

Take a look at this clip. That block is simply insane. There is no other way to put it.

Coming out of Kentucky, Eric Bledsoe was labelled as one of the fastest and most athletic players in college. Since then, even with his injury struggles, he is still an elite athlete. Look at this dunk on Kenneth Faried from last year.  Those knee injuries have not slowed Eric Bledsoe down. He is still leaping as high as ever.
