Spencer Haywood had it all.

Although he was born in Mississippi, Haywood moved to Detroit in his teen years, went to Pershing High School and won a state championship. He eventually played at the University of Detroit.....

Expected no less of him because of this.

Either way he would have wasted it away by treating his nose

like that coke head wouldn't have been selling shares to feed his habit.

 

[Jplaya2023]

Nike would've got him to sell his share eventually

shyt that's generations worth of riches. I'm not selling shyt unless the price starts at 1 trillion

[King Poetic]

he's just a handful of athletes listening to their agents on everything that the agents says and tell them what to do...

some dudes just don't want to sit down for a couple of hours each day to look over their books and deals on the table

And there was a thread here shyttin on Elway for not taking a share of the broncos which would be like 400 million today. This guy just lost billions...........BILLIONS!!!! Although in hindsight who the hell would know what Nike would become, it was just some shytty small company in Oregon back then.

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

Can't be too critical of the guy, hindsight is 20/20
