145.5 cm
No way. 145cm for a 22 year old woman? It couldn't be. Besides, wasn't 145cm her height when she join in 1998? Surely, one has got to grow in about 7 years.
Yes way. She's Asian. And Asians (Oriental Asians to be specific) are generally known as being shorter than your typical North American, with an average height of 5'5"-5'10". Mari just happens to be shorter than normal (even for an Asian).

I'm not trying to play the ethic card or anything, it's just a fact of life. To see an (Oriental) Asian over 6 feet tall is quite rare. By Asian standards, Yao Ming is a freak of nature.
