Ben Wallace 2002 NBA defensive player

Born: September 10, 1974, White Hall, Alabama, USA.

College: Virginia Union

NBA start: Undrafted, signed by the Washington Wizards in 1996.

Size: height:6'9" - weight:240lbs

Stats: gp:80 - mpg:36.5 - ppg:7.6 - apg:1.4 - rpg:13.0 - ft%:42.3 - fg%:53.1

Team standing: Detroit, 50-32, first in Central division. Lost to Boston 4-1 in Eastern conference semi-finals.

Comments: A classic zero to hero story is his tale. From unknown during his debut with the Wizards to fan craze in Detroit. His work ethic, documented in the Washington Post during his days in the Capital city, make his success no coincidence.

This award was expected all along, given the effort in his play.
