Former NBA star Rasheed Wallace, a Philadelphia native, will be rooting for Chiefs in Super Bowl


Before he became a star at UNC and the NBA, power forward dominated at Simon Gratz High School in Philadelphia. Wallace was born and raised in the city of brotherly love, so one might expect him to be a supporter of the Philadelphia Eagles. Instead, Wallace is all in on the Chiefs, who will face the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII. (Kansas City Star)
