Dennis Rodman: Political Ambassador

After leaving the league, Dennis Rodman went into professional wrestling, and after realizing that he could not keep up his work as a wrestler, the ex-NBA pro tried to become a political ambassador. He first went to North Korea in 2013 and as he came home, he referred to the North Korean leader, Kim Jong Un, as a “friend for life.” He later went to North Korea once more in 2017.

Latrell Sprewell: Commercial Actor

A name that always came with controversy in the league would be Latrell Sprewell. During his time in the NBA, he was known as a superstar, but his career was ruined after his violent attack on P.J. Carlesimo, Warriors coach in 1997. After retiring in 2015, he was hit by karma as his multi-million-dollar house was foreclosed and his yacht crashed. The former NBA star found a new job by appearing in a Priceline commercial. In the ads, he admits to making bad decisions and hopes that he has learned his lesson.
