Sun Ming Ming, world's tallest player, on Mexican team

11:52 H | Topics: Mexico - Sports - World

The world's tallest basketball player isn't superstar Yao Ming, it's his countryman Sun Ming Ming, who, instead of joining the NBA is starting his professional career in Mexico. Sun Ming Ming (seen arriving in Monterrey in the image) has just joined Monterrey's Fuerza Regia, where he will play for at least a year.

Sun Ming Ming had already played on a few minor league teams here in the U.S., among them the ABA's Maryland Nighthawks, but has decided to take a detour from his goal of joining an NBA team and try his luck on Fuerza Regia.
