JAKARTA - In the world of the internet and viral videos where people show their talents, fame can only be one video away.

This is the case of Abiodun Adegoke, a 2.36 meter tall Nigerian man who has attracted the interest of the world's elite basketball clubs.

Reporting from the YouTube Vesa Channel, during a training session recorded in Dubai, Adegoke was seen blocking the shot without even having to jump.

Adegoke, who calls himself the 'Big Naija' is two inches taller than the tallest basketball player to ever play in the NBA, Gheorghe Muresan.

Now, he has caught the attention of NBA scouts and legendary players including Shaquille O'Neal.

However, there are some doubts that have arisen regarding Adegoke's age. According to himself he is 18 years old.

However, some information suggests that this man is actually 21 years old.

In 2018, there was a newspaper article that talked about a 17 year old teenager who was 2.18 meters tall.

He stands out in the world of basketball, but he needs money to continue his studies after leaving school.

However, it is not certain whether the man Adegoke is referring to or not.

Currently, Adegoke plays in the MPAC Elite Youth League in Dubai. Seeing him play in the NBA seemed to be just a matter of time.
