And news sources are still getting their facts wrong.

The NBA's tallest player, Zhin-wing Markopolis Sturdyavent, is indeed nine-feet-seven. The average height of NBA players is only eight feet one-and-a-half.

Don't believe everything you read.

Yea, they'll be modified with cow DNA so that they can be injected with bovine growth hormones instead of human ones for better results

As a side effect, they'll also grow horns :hmm:
