Project Fadeaway: Fashion Industry Jobs for Unemployed NBA Players

We've got some suggestions for how these players can survive the lockout.

NBA Players

How awesome is the NBA Lockout? Empty arenas, thousands of lost jobs, and a country full of disgruntled fans. Way to go, Players Union and team owners. Thanks a lot.

We decided to try and help a few of the now unemployed ballers find a way to make earn a check and stay busy while the season is off—a way that doesn't involve playing in a communist country.

LeBronD-Wade, and Amare have already tried their hands in the fashion industry—from Fashion Week runway shows to their own collections, these guys are making the most of a shitty situation. So, why aren't more NBA players getting into the fashion industry? There's plenty of opportunity out there, all you need is a little ingenuity and some time to spare. Time these dudes definitely have. We're here to help with the other part.
