  • imagine if Yao was black and strong... greatest player ever

  • His standing reach is 9'7". A basketball has a diameter of 9.39 inches. And in order to get a clean dunk, you have to get the whole ball above the rim. So, using advanced math, I conclude that at the bare minimum, Yao has to jump 5 inches to touch the rim, plus 9.4 more inches to get the ball over the rim, a minimum of 14.4 inches to just barely dunk. And if you can only barely dunk, you won't dunk in games. I'd say Yao has a vertical of at least 20 and at most 24 inches. The NBA avg is 28 in.

  • His dunks are so boring

  • Coach: get the ball and pass to Yao

  • @BballPlayer1234567

    Looks like 4:19 proves he can jump more than a few inches, more like 20 inches if he can get his head 10 inches away from the rim and hand at the top of the square. I don't think there is anyone else that height who can jump higher.

  • @SaggyTurdMuffin he's already strong thou

  • Just a little hop.. Dunking? no problem

  • lol ppl saying he suck, his dunking wasnt his best ability. hes a very great shooter for such a tall guy and even unstopable when doing hookshots

  • @lolme2000 calm down its just a video
