Blind Item #7

This former A-/B+ list NBA player who was a pretty big name off the court with his relationships and his work in front of the camera blew through his entire NBA fortune and is now being sued by investors who say he ripped them off and kept their money to try and restore his fortune.

  2. Rodman fits and he had a 30/30 on ESPN this week spotlighting him and his career.

    Hey if you got into business with Dennis, you knew what you had coming. This is like suing ice cream because you ate it and got fat.

    1. I agree with you. The description fits Rick Fox. Dennis Rodman doesn't remotely fit. Like him or not, he is basketball royalty. A permanent A+ Lister in that context. 5x champion, All-Star, Defensive Player of the Year, multiple times as Rebounding Champion, plus he played with the Bad Boy era Pistons & Jordan era Bulls.

  10. I'd think Rodman could always hit his buddy in Asia up for funds or for solutions to angry investors.

  14. I've been to a few of Rodman's parties in Newport Beach. The guy as a few screws loose for sure.

  15. This story just doesn't get sadder. Rick Fox obvi. Another washed up has-been athlete. Idk what's sadder...this esports thing or his acting career.

  16. I don’t follow basketball too closely but I’m guessing Rick Fox. I play esports and this article made me realize he may have made my fav esports team Echo Fox lose almost all there money inabout a year (and he’s now getting sued). It’s probably him. https://labusinessjournal.com/news/2019/aug/23/rick-fox-sued-by-echo-fox-partners/

  17. Maybe Rick Fox? Tl;dr - according to his partners he sabotaged Echo Fox’s LCS deal because hewanted a better one for himself and now everyone hates him. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/rick-foxs-esports-partners-file-remove-him-company-1233833?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral

  18. Really think it's Rick Fox. That guy always struck me as a selfish man who learned how to sell a smile. Like he’s getting sued and won’t even pay back part of a loan someone gave him?

  19. I’m going to guess Rick Fox. Read this the other week and he seems kinda shady. https://labusinessjournal.com/news/2019/aug/23/rick-fox-sued-by-echo-fox-partners/
