5'3" to 6'1" -ish: One common growth chart shows a 16yo to be between 63" (5th percentile) and 73" (95th percentile) for height range. Numbers below should be evaluated by a doctor to be sure there is not a medical condition slowing growth before it stops. Larger numbers suggest future in basketball!
