From College To The NBA
A Hip-Hop vibe in basketball? Yep, you read that right. Michigan’s Fab Five were supposedly responsible for giving the game a hip-hop vibe. While Webber was on the team, the Wolverines appeared in two NCAA finals…not too shabby! Even more impressively, four out of the five Fab 5 members went on to play in the NBA! But, Chris and his successful teammates ran into a major scandal that almost ruined their careers…
A Major Scandal
Chris Webber was tied to the mid 90’s University of Michigan Basketball scandal. After being found guilty, the tremendous athlete was stripped of all of his college awards, leaving the University empty-handed. Webber was later convicted of perjury after it was uncovered that he had received more than $200,000 in cash from local boosters.
