Ben Wallace plays forward and center for the Cleveland Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association.
Wallace broke his right leg during a February 26, 2009, game against the Houston Rockets. X-rays showed a broken fibula, which will likely force Wallace to miss four to six weeks of playing time.CBSSports.com: Cavs' Wallace Breaks Right Leg, to Miss Four to Six Weeks
Early Years
Wallace was not heavily recruited in high school, and thus played at the junior college level at Cuyahoga Community College. He then moved from a Division II team to the pro-league in Italy, before he was picked up by the Washington Bullets in 1996.NBA Career
Ben Wallace went undrafted in the 1996 NBA draft. He was signed on as a free agent by the Washington Bullets. He eventually landed with the Detroit Pistons, playing for Flip Saunders. He was an integral part of the team's championship victory over the Los Angeles Lakers in 2004. In 2006, general manager Joe Dumars promised to make Wallace the highest paid Piston of all time, which he did. However, Wallace decided to take a deal with the Chicago Bulls shortly after that for $60 million, $10 million more than he was making in Detroit. He then moved to the Cleveland Cavaliers after the Bulls traded him in 2008.During the NBA All-Star weekend of 2009, Wallace cut his forearm on glass while playing football in Virginia. He underwent a procedure to remove the glass and received 14 stitches.The Plain Dealer: Cleveland Cavaliers' Ben Wallace... 14 Stitches in Forearm
