Former NBA Players Who Surprised Everyone With Their Choice of Jobs After Retirement

Ben Wallace – Owner Of A G-League Basketball Team

Ben Wallace is an American former professional basketball player and also a current basketball executive who is playing most of his career in the National Basketball Association and is regarded as the best-undrafted player in NBA history. Hailing from Alabama, Wallace attended Cuyahoga Community College and Virginia Union University and went on to play for teams such as Washington Bullets/Wizards, Orlando Magic, Detroit Pistons, Chicago Bulls, and Cleveland Cavaliers.

His NBA career lasted all of 16 years and he won the title of the NBA Defensive Player of the Year title at least four times. He also won the All-Star selection four times and he led his team to blocks.

However, with the uber-successful NBA career came failure and he had to face several legal issues that proved to be the final nail in his financial coffin.  In 2018, he deprived his career somewhat as he became the owner of the Grand Rapids Drive of the NBA G-League.
