LISTEN: Chris Webber To Teach At Wake Forest

Former Sacramento King all-star, NBA rookie of the year and current television analyst, Chris Webber, will be doing some teaching off the court this year. Wake Forest University announced Monday Webber will be a professor for their sports storytelling program.

Webber, a member of the famous "Fab Five" of the University of Michigan back in the 90s, played two years in college before being drafted in the first round by the Orlando Magic first overall (only to be traded to the Golden State Warriors that same day). He interviewed with CBS Sports Radio's Doug Gottlieb to talk about his new job:
