After a long eight-year wait, Chris Webber is finally heading to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. As he awaits Saturday's induction in Springfield, Webber will have the rest of the Michigan Fab Five joining him on this special day:

The Fab Five, which consisted of Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard, Webber, Ray Jackson, and Jimmy King, was one of the most iconic teams in the NCAA and took the nation by storm in 1991-92. Of course, Webber, Rose, and Howard all went on to have successful NBA careers while the latter is now the head coach in Ann Arbor.

These players formed a special bond on the court and now they will all be there to honor their Hall of Fame teammate on the weekend. Webber also voiced that he would love to see retirement banners at Michigan for the Fab Five, which the program has already looked into.

As for Chris Webber, his NBA career spanned a whole 15 years, making five All-Star teams and being named All-NBA five times. He also won Rookie of the Year in his first season in the league. Webber was a do-it-all big man and one of the most dominant of his time. It's certainly deserving that he heads into basketball folklore on Saturday along with fellow inductees Chris Bosh and Paul Pierce. It will definitely be special to the entire Fab Five there seeing it all unfold, too.
