When NBA players hit the road, they find specific aspects they like about each city. Some players may like the nightlife in cities such as Miami or New York City or LA. Some may like to stay inside and chill out at the team hotel and try the food.
For Houston Rockets legend Yao Ming, when he had to pay a visit to the Philadelphia 76ers, he loved the city of Philadelphia for one reason: the cheesesteaks.
Yao talked with Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma and revealed the city of Philadelphia was his favorite road city because of the food. The Rockets legend certainly loves himself some cheesesteaks.
Yao averaged 18.5 points and 10.1 rebounds in his career against the Sixers. The Hall of Famer was incredibly tough to stop when he reached his peak. Devastating foot injuries derailed everything, but Yao was an 8-time All-Star and was an All-NBA Team member five times.
