Blocking Machine: Manute Bol (7'7") was super tall and super skinny, but his blocks were huge! He played from 1985 to 1995 and set a rookie record with 397 blocks in just 80 games! That's like blocking every other shot!

The Houston Rockets' Giant: Yao Ming (7'6") was the beloved star of the Rockets from 2002 to 2011. He was so good, he even made it to the Hall of Fame!

Space Jam Star: Shawn Bradley (7'6") wasn't just tall, he was a movie star too! He played from 1994 to 2005 and was the best shot blocker in 1996. Now that's a slam dunk for the record books!

Chuck Nevitt (7'5") played across multiple teams and even won a title with the Lakers!

Sim Bhullar (7'5") made history as the first NBA player of Indian origin!

Tacko Fall (7'5") is a Boston Celtics favorite who may not play much, but his height steals the show!

Mark Eaton (7'4") was the ultimate shot blocker, setting a single-season record with 456 blocks in 1984-85!
