Friday's Rockets game will be 1st with players from 6 continents
If the meeting on Friday night of Rockets center Yao Ming and Bucks rookie forward Yi Jianlian alone was not indicative of the global reach of the sport, the game at Toyota Center also will be the first to feature players from six continents.
In addition to the players from North America and Yao and Yi from Asia, the Rockets' Luis Scola (Argentina) is from South America, the Rockets' Dikembe Mutombo (Congo) is from Africa, the Bucks' Dan Gadzuric (Holland) is from Europe and the Bucks' Andrew Bogut is from Australia.
