Summary

Yao Ming is a Giant of a Man. The Native of Shanghai, China, stands seven feet six inches tall. But the Houston Rockets were looking at more than Yao's towering height when they selected him with the first overall pick in the 2002 NBA draft. The Rockets were hoping that Yao's athletic ability and strong work ethic, combined with his size, might make him a dominant force on the basketball court. That hope has been realized. Today Yao Ming is arguably the NBA's best center.
