Dennis Rodman: Political Ambassador
Dennis Rodman Political Ambassador
Never one to be out of the limelight, Dennis Rodman’s celebrity status has grown in stature since he left the sport. While he hasn’t had to go into a typical job, his post-NBA career is so interesting, we couldn’t resist including it on our list today.
His first attempt at a career after basketball involved getting into professional wrestling. Once the gig ran dry, he decided that becoming a political ambassador would be the best use of his time. He even went as far as to visit North Korea in 2013, calling leader Kim Jong Un a “friend for life”. He would later visit North Korea again in 2017. Fascinating, and a little bizarre!

When Chris Anderson wrapped up his career in the 2016/17 season, he was still playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers. “Birdman”, as he was affectionately called by fans, saw a lot of change in the twelve months that followed his retirement, generating a fire and a spark for him to get back out on the floor.
He continues to train and keep up his fitness, with the hopes that he’s going to be getting a call one of these days. We can imagine that sometimes it feels a little hopeless, but never count Birdman out. Sooner or later he may just get the break that he needs.
