Paul Pierce announced this week that he’s launching a new vape pen business. It’s a product line with which he has personal experience.
The former Boston Celtics star says he vapes cannabidiol, or CBD, oil to deal with “chronic pain and anxiety” as a retired professional athlete.
“These type of medications should [be] … allowed in sports as an alternative to pain pills and other issues athletes deal with on a day to day basis,” Pierce tweeted on Tuesday, announcing his new company, Vape Vesper, of which the 41-year-old is listed as the co-founder and CEO.
