Chris Webber will be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Saturday (Sept. 11), and rumors are swirling that the Fab Five will all be there.
Speaking with Shams Charania of The Athletic this week, Webber stated the Wolverines’ Fab Five is “back together” and will be at the ceremony in Springfield, Massachusetts, Saturday.
“You’re going to see us together a lot. I’m very happy that those guys are coming to the Hall of Fame to be with me… I am Michigan, they are Michigan, any alumni, they are Michigan,” Webber told the outlet. “You’re going to see a lot of us, starting with the football game in a couple weeks. It’s definitely a process, a healing process and I’m looking forward to what the future holds.”
The Fab Five were the 1991 University of Michigan men’s basketball team recruiting class bringing together Webber with Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard, Jimmy King and Ray Jackson.
