With NBA career behind him, Rasheed Wallace is still the show

Posted Jul 14, 2012
He hasn't played in the NBA since 2010, but when Rasheed Wallace strolls into N.C. Central's McClendon-McDougald Gymnasium, he immediately owns the room. On this Tuesday night, he doesn't have much of an entourage. He wears a healthy beard, simple black shorts and a basic white jersey that covers a slight paunch. About the only part of his look that has any hint of flash are his shoes. (Fayetteville Observer)
