Antoine Walker: Financial Advisor
With over $100m in the bank in his thirteen season career, Antoine Walker was surely never going to be able to spend it all, right? Wrong. In ways that only he can understand, or possibly some others who have faced similar challenges, he ultimately had to file for bankruptcy in 2010. Yikes. In 2013, with his debts paid off, his second career chapter started in the form of a job with Morgan Stanley Global Sports and Entertainment, to do what, you ask? Teaching financial literacy to up-and-coming stars. Now this is a way to pay things forward (excuse the pun). Everyone needs someone to tell them that it’s a bad idea to own a couple of yachts, without any savings.

Adam Morrison: Coach
We’ve seen time and time again that injuries end careers, and the same can, unfortunately, be said for the Los Angeles Lakers’ Adam Morrison. When he tore his ACL in 2007, it was all over, resulting in him heading back to school to try his hand at a different career path. Finishing a degree in sports management, he decided to take on a position on the team’s coaching staff while he was studying. This helped him start to move up the ranks, and has landed him many opportunities to keep growing his career. He is also a role model for children with type-1 diabetes which he was diagnosed with when he was 13-years old. Trust in the difficult, the old saying suggests.
