SHAWN BRADLEY AS A BLACK SWAN. Jody Genessy in the Deseret News summarizes the study’s explanation of Shawn Bradley’s height: Bradley “simply had “nearly every common genetic variant that positively affects height.” As I understand it, if you think of a common “SNP” as a coin flip with the heads side of the coin being positive for height, Bradley’s genes came up heads almost every time. Shawn Bradley is a Black Swan.
