Vin Baker – Alcohol and Bad Investments
The Sonics, Providence Gazette
Once upon a time, Vin Baker played a whopping 13 seasons in the NBA, even becoming an All-Star four times. As one of the best offensive forwards in all of the game, he earned more than $100 million during his incredible career. However, it was not enough to cover Baker’s problems with alcohol and bad investments.
Now 49-years-old, Baker’s net worth sits at roughly $500,000, less than one percent of his former glory. When he no longer had any NBA money to depend on, the former sports star returned to the world of normal jobs and now manages a Starbucks in Providence, Rhode Island.
