When you look at the tallest players in NBA history the top of the list, no pun intended, goes like this:
- Gheorghe Mureu0219an, 7-7
- Manute Bol, 7-7
- Slavko Vraneš, 7-6
- Shawn Bradley, 7-6
- Yao Ming, 7-6
- Chuck Nevitt, 7-5
- Pavel Podkolzin, 7-5
- Sim Bhullar, 7-5
- Tacko Fall, 7-5
Most of these guys were novelties and really couldn’t play basketball much all. But one of them is not like the others: Yao Ming was a legitimate basketball player.
