Yao Ming Chinese 2.16m superstar center Yao sparked the Houston Rockets to a 10-4 record in the first month of 2008, averaging 22.4 points, 10.9 rebounds and 2.4 assists for the season to carry the load after an injury slowed Tracy McGrady.

"King James" had 31 points, a career-high 19 rebounds, eight assists, four blocked shots and three steals January 11 in a 113-106 double overtime victory over Charlotte and struck for a season-high 51 points four days later in a 132-124 victory over Memphis.

James also poured in 41 points with nine rebounds and four assists in a 98-95 victory over the host Los Angeles Lakers last Sunday.

Yao defeated Lakers' guard Kobe Bryant, Denver's Allen Iverson, Utah's Deron Williams and Phoenix's Amare Stoudemire for the Western honors while James beat out Charlotte's Gerald Wallace, Toronto's Chris Bosh and Washington's Caron Butler in the East.
