Jonte "Too Tall" Hall is an American basketball player for the Harlem Globetrotters. At 5 feet 2 inches (1.57 m) and 142 pounds (64 kg), he is one of the smallest players in professional basketball history.
Hall was raised in the McCulloh Street projects, in West Baltimore, and, despite his height, liked basketball from an early age. He attended Carver Vocational-Technical High School in Baltimore, where he helped the basketball team reach the state finals. He played at the Catonsville campus of the Community College of Baltimore County for a year without spending much time on court, but dropped out of college to help support his mother. Later he managed to get on the Washington Generals, and was then traded to the Globetrotters, one of only two players in twenty years to make the transition.
