Ben Wallace has made the deal to Chicago official by signing the contract. This will be a huge loss for Detroit. Chicago is licking their chops and waiting for next season. Wallace stands at 6 feet 9 inches. He is a defensive menace. If Chicago does indeed improve their defense, they stand a shot at going further in the playoffs in 2007.

While no free agent in the NBA can officially sign a contract until July 12, all signs point to Ben Wallace leaving Detroit. The Detroit Pistons worked hard to keep Wallace in the Motor City, but it looks like they fell short. The Pistons offered a four-year contract worth $50 million. However, Ben Wallace wants to leave for greener pastures. Evidently he believes that the Chicago Bulls are about to go on a run.
