I call shenanigans. First said it here:
"When he transferred to USC after redshirting his sophomore year at Highline, Scalabrine arrived in Los Angeles in great condition. “I ran a 4:45 mile. For a 6’9â€â€‹â€‹, 230-pound guy, that’s pretty fast,†he says. “Like [Kyle] Korver does or Ray Allen or J.J. Reddick, they don’t beat people with quickness, they just beat people because they’re in ridiculous shape.â€
He doubled down on it in a podcast I saw linked to today:

I'm not buying it. I'm sure that he was in good shape but the idea he was time-trialing on the USC track...meh.
