While fans await news on whether Ben Wallace will return for his 17th season, he shed some light on the situation this week in Virginia.

Speaking with Richmond, Va., TV station WTVR, he said he is “50-50″ about returning to the Pistons.

According to the report, Wallace was preparing to participate in a summer league he sponsors, and he indicated his performance would help him decide.

“I’ll be out here,” Wallace said. “How much of a player (he still is) remains to be seen.”
