핵심 특성
주요 업적
중국 프로리그에서 뛰다 2002년 휴스턴 로키츠에 전체 1순위로 지명되어 9시즌 동안 센터로 활약했으며, 올스타에 8차례 뽑히고 경기당 평균 19.0점 9.2리바운드 1.9블록을 기록했다.
NBA를 중국에 알린 공로를 크게 인정받으며, 그의 재임 기간 중국에서 NBA 상품 판매와 시청률이 크게 늘었고, 그가 출전한 2007년 경기는 2억 명 넘는 중국 시청자가 지켜봤다.
발과 발목 부상으로 2011년 선수 생활을 마쳤음에도 네이스미스 농구 명예의 전당에 헌액되었고 로키츠는 그의 11번을 영구결번했다.
삶의 장면들
밴 건디는 야오가 매 훈련 전에 웨이트 트레이닝, 토머스 티보도 코치와의 영상 분석, 개인 훈련을 소화해 훈련이 시작될 때쯤이면 이미 몇 시간째 훈련장에 있었다고 설명한다.
이 설명은 꾸준하고 루틴에 기반한 준비 방식과 부합한다. 자기 규율
밴 건디는 야오가 동료의 좋은 플레이마다 벤치에서 일어나 환호했고, 타임아웃 때면 가장 먼저 달려나가 동료를 맞았다고 회상한다.
이는 팀을 우선하며 동료를 지지하는 태도와 부합한다. 협업 성향
전환점
2002년 상하이 샤크스에서 막 우승을 차지한 그는 중국 리그를 떠나 전체 1순위로 NBA에 입성했고, 휴스턴에서 9시즌 경력이 시작되었다.
이 이적은 그의 신인 시즌 성적이 보여주듯 새로운 리그와 환경에 적응하는 능력과 부합한다. 적응력
