JudyAs 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.

How tall is the tallest player in basketball?
This is a difficult question to answer properly. Normally I would say it would be the person who, when measured by a standard NCAA or NBA tape measure, records more inches than any other person on the team. But this is complicated somewhat because the rules generally state that the TALLEST player must also be the LONGEST player when he is lying on the floor and can be measured horizontally. After you have measured all the players in both dimensions, lateral and longitudinal, the one who is both tallest and longest can be said to be the tallest player on the basketball team. Phil
