Description

Ben Cameron Wallace (born September 10, 1974) is an American former professional basketball player who is a minority owner and president of basketball operations of the Grand Rapids Gold of the NBA G League. Playing most of his career in the National Basketball Association, he is regarded by many to be the greatest undrafted player in NBA history. A native of Alabama, Wallace attended Cuyahoga Community College and Virginia Union University. In his NBA career, Wallace played with the Washington Bullets/Wizards, Orlando Magic, Detroit Pistons, Chicago Bulls, and Cleveland Cavaliers.

Wallace won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award four times, a record he shares with Dikembe Mutombo. In nine seasons with the Pistons (2000–2006; 2009–2012), Wallace made two NBA Finals appearances (2004 and 2005) and won a championship with the team in 2004. The Pistons retired his jersey number 3 in 2016. Wallace was elected to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in the class of 2021 on May 16, 2021, and was enshrined on September 11, 2021.
