I had a similar problem when I was 8 in the shoulder. My growth plates started growing too fast for the rest of my body to catch up. I also had naturally loose ligaments. With lots of tubing exercise, 3 1/2 months of lay off, and a rehab throwing program, I came back the next season better than ever. To have growth plate problems at such an old age is usually rare-at least in what I've seen. Normally kids have "soreness" that is probably attributed to growth plates (a Dr. told me this) in their younger ages (12-14). If he is 6'5", be smart. Don't rush it, he will definately get his looks being that tall.
