Ben Wallace, Chris Webber miss cut for Basketball Hall of Fame

The Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame looks like it won’t have a decided Detroit flavor in its 2019 class. Former Pistons Ben Wallace and Chris Webber are finalists for the honor, but did not make the final cut, according to a report by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

An official announcement of the new members to be enshrined is expected Saturday at the Final Four in Minneapolis but Wojnarowski posted on Twitter that Sidney Moncrief, Bobby Jones, Vlade Divac and Paul Westphal were among those selected.

Three prominent finalists for the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame's Class of 2019 -- Marques Johnson, Ben Wallace and Chris Webber – were not selected for enshrinement, sources tell ESPN.
