Big Ben Wallace made commercials and appeared on a videogame cover.

He eventual caved and joined 2K13, but only on the Dream Team and only after Jay-Z called to reel him in.

This is correct. Back when 2K13 dropped, Chuck did an interview here in Chicago where he mentioned that he doesn't allow the NBA to use his likeness for anything because he doesn't like the way they treat the retired players of the league. He mentioned that he doesn't like that the retired players only get 10 percent (I guess of everything the NBA uses their likenesses for?) and he didn't think it was fair to only give the retired players 10 percent and he certainly wasn't going to do anything for 10 percent. So he explained that he told them that he'd do the deal and they could use his likeness for whatever they wanted if they gave him 50/50 and gave his share to the retired players association because he feels like he should give back to the people that opened the door for him and he doesn't need the money anyway. According to Chuck they told him that everybody else did it the other way and he told them he didn't care what everybody else did so he turned them down. Then he said that he got the call from Jay-Z and the only reason he agreed to be in was because of Jay-Z. He said they were offering him $50,000
