The son is 14 times shorter than the basketball player, so the son is 623/14 = <<623/14=44.5>>44.5 feet tall. Answer: \boxed{44.5}.

To find out how tall the basketball player's son is, you'll need to calculate 14% of the player's height:

Height of the basketball player = 623 feet
Height of the son = 14% of the player's height

To find 14% of the player's height, you can convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100:

14% รท 100 = 0.14

Now, multiply the player's height by the decimal:

623 feet ร— 0.14 = 87.22 feet

Therefore, the son is approximately 87.22 feet tall.
