Bubba Wallace recently revealed how he could have ended up in an entirely different sport instead of NASCAR. He spoke about his influences and how he got into racing finally. Let's take a look at what Wallace has to say about this.
In a visual interview, Wallace said, “I think I was following in my sister’s footsteps, to be honest with you. She was a basketball player. I was five, I started playing basketball. I played a few things in the Rec league stuff. And then, seven and eight, I was playing AAU travel ball.”
However, somewhere along the line, he seemed to have switched life goals and ended up in NASCAR instead. He currently races for 23XI, a team owned by fellow driver Denny Hamlin and the legendary NBA basketball player Michael Jordan.
