Kai Sotto is 7’2″ tall, while Pia Wurtzbach stands at 5’8″ (at least according to Wikipedia and IMDB). So how did the former Miss Universe take this selfie with the basketball star?
She had to stand on a chair!

The two spent time together at the 2020 NBA All-Star festivities, where Pia will be covering the event as an NBA Philippines insider. Kai even taught her how to shoot hoops!
Kai is in Chicago as part of the NBA’s Basketball Without Borders (BWB) Global Camp. It is part of the 2020 NBA All-Star weekend, which sees some 60 players from 34 countries in a high-level training program.
According to the Philippine Star, the basketball player has received feedback from NCAA Divison I schools and has made unofficial visits to Kentucky University and Georgia Tech. The newspaper also reports that Kai has received an offer to play for the University of Georgia Bulldogs.
Kai has said that he is still exploring all his options and has not made a decision yet.
