Latrell Sprewell: Pitchman
Latrell Sprewell Pitchman
Latrell Sprewell has never been shy to steer clear of controversy. The superstar baller made headlines in 1997 when he violently attacked Warriors head coach P.J. Carlesimo. Skip to 2005, and the universe did it’s rounds again, resulting in the foreclosure of all his houses and a yacht crash that still has an air of mystery surrounding it to this day.
Ready to repent, Sprewell currently works as a pitchman (salesperson) for Priceline. As part of his pitch for the service, he leads by admitting that he’s made some terrible choices in his lifetime. Here’s to hoping that it will lead him back to the straight and narrow in the near future.
Wilt Chamberlain: Different Strokes
Wilt Chamberlain Everything
Wilt Chamberlain was the “greatest of all time” when he hung up his laces in 1973, and many thought that he had the world of opportunities ahead of him when he left the game. As with so many people, this led to him trying multiple career paths, in a bid to see what was going to work for him.
He would eventually settle into life as a pitchman, until his untimely death due to heart failure in 1999. His memory lives on, and he will forever be remembered as one of the greatest ballplayers to grace us with his talent.
