Can short people be good basketball players?

YES! Mugsy Bouges was not a all star but average somme good points 10-11 points per game.

How short is short?  I'm 6' tall- towering over a majority of the global population but a midget in the NBA world.  You can be a great basketball player, but if you're under 6', then your odds are pretty much zero

Despite all of these notions in favor of height, the fact is that short players absolutely have the opportunity to play basketball at the highest levels. Short players definitely have to be sensational to standout over a very talented 6'6″ above the rim type player.

Sure. You have a tougher road ahead of you is all. Tall players have it hard as it is. A shorter player? Well, you mightve seen how many shorter players have made it to The NBA.

THEY ARE USUALLY BETTER BALL HANDLERS THAT TALL PLAYERS

Yes, there have been successful short people in the NBA like Muggsy Bogues, Earl Boykins and Spud Webb. However, it's not common at the NBA level.

Not really...................

sure....   but you cannot play as center for sure......  

BASKET ball is about throwing  a ball into a large basket.   If you are good at that, it means you are good at basketball.    

Dunking, passing and Rebounding are just for show and it could be done by your teammates.....

yeah of course :) I mean if you are young you are still growing so make sure to eat plenty of fruits and vegetables and drink lots of milk to grow and have strong bones. There are lots of NBA players who are short

Yes.  Tyrone Curtis "Muggsy" Bogues played in the NBA for 14 seasons.
