Yao Ming retires from the NBA after one of Team UGC members blocks his game winning shot in a wax museum in New York with everyone in amazement. No really an honestly I blocked his shot look at the pic.
Realistically Yao Ming has retired from the NBA. Often injury plagued the 7-foot-6 center informed the NBA league office and the Rockets that he was walking away from the game that made him a worldwide star. He was set to become a free agent once the league's lockout ends after earning $93 million dollars over his career with the Rockets. Yao, 30 yeas old had a season-ending procedure to repair a stress fracture in his left ankle in January and said at his news conference that it forced him to retire. Yao No. 1 overall draft pick in 2002 finished his NBA career averaging 19.0 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.9 blocks in 486 games.
Thanks for the memories Yao Ming.
