Yao Ming, Houston Rockets (Retired) – Texas, Estimated $3.9 Million

A retired professional basketball player, Yao Ming became a basketball executive who was the tallest active NBA player during his final season in 2010-2011. As one of the highest-earning Chinese celebrities, Ming unsurprisingly bought a huge mansion in Houston. However, after retiring, he put the crib in the market for an estimated price of $3.9M. The 6-bedroom house comes with all the luxuries and amenities you could ever think of. Yao graduated with a degree in economics in 2018 after enrolling in Antai College of Economics & Management in 2011.
