More Wookies in Episode II?

At swrumors.com they had a interesting article that says two of the players from the championship L.A. Lakers were cast in the movie to play tall aliens.They said that a cheer leader on the Lakers knows someone who works for Lucasfilm and that is how it started.Are they Wookies?I doubt this is true none the less great speculation.

I don't know..I think it's very likely that we might see wookiee's to some degree. I find it hard to believe that 2 basketball players were cast though...just becuase if the Australian labor laws...I'm sure they could find some tall people down under to do the job...🙂

That's why I said I doubt this was true too.
