Rasheed Wallace (notes), in Philadelphia, with a prosthetic leg.

No, I'm not disclosing the details of a murder in some NBA-themed edition of Clue. That was the scene a couple of Sundays ago in a lobby at Lincoln Financial Field in Philly.

As the hilarious story goes, Wallace, wearing a No. 58 Derrick Thomas Chiefs jersey, tossed a man's prosthetic leg back and forth with friends before the start of the Eagles-Chiefs game.

Why? No one was quite sure exactly. The best guess was that he had picked it up as an early Christmas gift for new Celtics teammate Kevin Garnett (notes) who would likely need it for when his next knee gave out.

But nope — 'Sheed just stole it from a drunk friend.

How does this make Yahoo Basketball's front page.
This is not news, not entertaining, and not well-written like most this Author's other posts.
There may be a small contingent of fantasy basketball junkies that like this. I no longer look to Yahoo for quality basketball journalism (or humor) however.

albert r - it's a BLOG, not journalism -learn the difference. And it is entertaining. If you don't like it, DON'T READ IT.

I think he suffered a burn on his head when he was younger that caused the bald spot...Sheed don't listen to these haters cuz u look great. keep playing good too.

I think "ball don't lie" is 'Sheed's invention... or his gift to us common folk. Someone explain.
