My wingspan is 1.5-2 inches longer then my actual height at bone age 14 could this mean I’ll grow to that height or more? For reference each of family members have wingspans exactly equivalent to their heights.

slight positive correlation but nothing anywhere close to 1:1 like you said

I'm 6'4" with a 6'4" wingspan, not because of a wide frame but because my arms are freakishly long, as long as many NBA players. This makes it difficult to grow my arms but easy to pull a lot of weight on the deadlift.

Probably not, maybe but not really a high chance

Idk man, I'm 181cm with a 185cm wingspan. 3-5 months ago both stats were 4cm shorter

im opposite bro im 5'9 with a 6'0 wingspan from wide shoulders but i have short arms, its shit for basketball because my standing reach is only 7'5 when for most 5'9 people with my wingspan it should be 7'8-7'10

I never liked basketball or team sports as a whole because I hate having to rely on other people, I always excelled in sports I could do on my own like skiing because I didn't have to rely on anyone.
