Thu Sep 29 201109:27Ben Wallace facing DUI, weapons offenses
Ben Wallace is facing drunken driving and weapons offenses after an arrest on Saturday night.
This is troubling news for Wallace. The big man confirmed that he wanted to play one more season for Detroit, as the final year of his contract is set for the 2011-12 campaign. Further details are certain to be released shortly, but the initial report obviously does not sound promising.

Tue Jul 19 201110:55Ben Wallace wants to play one more season
Ben Wallace confirmed that he wants to play one more season for the Pistons.
With John Kuester gone, Wallace is on board for the final year of his contract. Entering his age-37 season, he'll serve as a mentor to Greg Monroe and serve a strict backup role. Next season -- whenever that is -- will almost certainly be Wallace's last.

Following Wednesday's finale, Ben Wallace said he didn't know if he'll be back next season.

Mon Apr 11 201118:33Ben Wallace to miss final two games of season
Ben Wallace (knee) is expected to miss the final two games of the season.
He's been ruled out for Monday night's game and there's little reason to play him Wednesday. Greg Monroe should get some nice run in his absence. Wallace is at the end of his career and injuries and younger talent have passed him up.

Sun Apr 10 201117:31Ben Wallace to sit Sunday vs. Charlotte
Ben Wallace (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Bobcats.
Wallace on the bench equals extra minutes for Greg Monroe. You could do worse if you're looking for a last minute pickup for the close of the season.

Ben Wallace (knee) is out again on Friday for Detroit.
Big Ben has played once in the past nine games and shouldn't be on any fantasy rosters. His absence has allowed (or forced) the Pistons to rapidly develop rookie Greg Monroe.

Wed Apr 6 201110:21Ben Wallace to retire at end of season?
Ben Wallace hinted that he may retire after this season.
Wallace, 37, has one more year left on his contract. However, coming back to deal with the Pistons' drama and rebuilding doesn't sound too appetizing. The lockout could potentially complicate matters, leaving Big Ben's future up in the air.

Tue Apr 5 201123:08Wallace (knee) returns to action on Tuesday
Ben Wallace (knee) returned to action on Tuesday, playing eight minutes with two rebounds, one steal, and one block to his credit.
It wouldn't be surprising to see him sit the bench for the rest of the season, but then again, we are talking about Detroit. In any event, there is practically no chance that he cuts into Greg Monroe's time.

Wed Mar 30 201117:16Ben Wallace a game time decision vs. Pacers
Ben Wallace (knee) remains a game time decision for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
...and even if he does suit up, will he start, be a reserve, or see any minutes at all? It's anyone's guess at this point.

Tue Mar 29 201117:26Wallace Remains Sidelined
Ben Wallace remains day-to-day with his knee soreness. He did not practice again on Tuesday.
Wallace hasn't deserved to be rostered in quite some time now, and odds are if he is on your roster that your team fell out of contention quite some time ago.

Mon Mar 28 201112:33Ben Wallace (knee) considered day-to-day
Ben Wallace is still considered day-to-day as he deals with knee soreness.
He still has some time to rest before Wednesday's game but it doesn't look like the Pistons are in a rush to get him back.

Sat Mar 26 201118:21Ben Wallace out Saturday w/ sore knee
Ben Wallace will sit out again on Saturday due to his sore knee.
Fantasy owners should not be clinging to Big Ben at this point. However, we should credit Detroit's aging center for fighting through injuries and staying above the pettiness that has engulfed his team at times this season.

Thu Mar 24 201112:49Ben Wallace remains day-to-day
Ben Wallace remains day-to-day with a sore knee.
Wallace started three straight games before being a late scratch Wednesday night. He's better off just shutting it down and letting Chris Wilcox start at center the rest of the way.

Wed Mar 23 201118:10Ben Wallace out Wednesday due to knee
Ben Wallace is a late scratch from the Pistons lineup for Wednesday's game against the Heat.
Easy come, easy go, huh? Wallace returns to the bench to rest his knee. Chris Wilcox will get the start in his place. Just spare yourself and stay away from Wallace, healthy or not.

Tue Mar 15 201111:59Ben Wallace says he's 100 percent
Ben Wallace says he is 100 percent healthy but has no idea when he'll get back in the rotation.
Just like us, the Pistons players show up at the arena and find out who is starting/playing. There is no way to predict the rotation with mad scientist John Kuester at the controls.

Sat Mar 12 201120:44Wallace to be handled conservatively
Ben Wallace, who has missed time due to personal issues, is active for Saturday's game, but the Pistons are going to be conservative with how they use him.
"Right now we're trying to make sure he's healthy enough to play minutes," John Kuester said. He was active on Friday but did not play, and it's possible that he does not play tonight, much to the delight of Greg Monroe's owners. It's unclear how much, if at all, Wallace will play going forward.

Thu Mar 10 201111:05Wallace returns to team but is inactive
Ben Wallace was with the Pistons but was inactive Wednesday.
Wallace missed a full week after the death of his brother, so perhaps he wasn't in game shape. We'd still expect to see him back on the court -- and maybe starting over Chris Wilcox -- sometime soon.
