Ben Wallace Bio Ben Wallace went undrafted in 1996 and walked away wearing a Hall of Fame jacket. 💪 In a class filled with legends like Kobe, Iverson, Nash, and Ray Allen it was the undrafted Wallace who became the biggest surprise. 4× Defensive Player of the Year 4x All-Star 5x All-NBA 6x All Defense NBA Champion (2004) The only player to go from undrafted to Hall of Fame. He didn’t just make the league he dominated it. He didn’t just prove them wrong he made them remember. Wallace turned the pain of being overlooked into fuel, lifting weights to the names of every player picked ahead of him. 😤 “So I went back to the gym that night.

Respect Ben Wallace. The Best UNDRAFTED Player of All Time! 🙌
