As of the 2008-09 season, that would be Yao Ming of the Houston Rockets who is listed by the NBA at the barefoot height of 7 feet, 6 inches (2.29 meters). The tallest players in the history of the NBA were Manute Bol and Gheorge Muresan, both listed by the NBA at the barefoot height of 7 feet, 7 inches (2.31 meters). Next come Yao and Shawn Bradley at 7 feet, 6 inches (2.29 meters) barefoot. NOTE: The NBA allows players to have their height listed either with or without shoes. There is no way of knowing, when seeing a player's height listed in statistics, whether this height is the barefoot height or 'with shoes' height.
The NBA player who paid for 80 cows for his wife and is the tallest ever in the NBA is Manute Bol. Bol is a native of Sudan.

Kobe Bryant is currently the highest paid player in the NBA.
