OT: Yao set to become a father for the first time

According to the Beijing News, the 29-year-old Houston Rocket -- out for the season as he recovers from a foot injury -- is expected to become a father in July. No decision has been made on where the baby will be born.


Both Yao and his wife are basketball players and Yao's parents are also basketball players. Chances are Yao's kid will play basketball too and probably a tall player too. :D

The place of birth is not decided so there is a chance the kid maybe born in US and in that case has the chance to be a US citizen... :o

if he's born here then yes he is a citizen whether or not his parents are.

congrats to Yao and Mrs. Yao

hope the baby's head is not as big as Yao's noggin or that's gonna hurt coming out.

Somewhere, in the moist corner of a dank cavern, Dave Bliss is putting his final polish on a letter of intent.
