The life of being a professional athlete can cause even the most grounded of players to get swept up in all of the chaos. With this in mind, they often find themselves in tough situations in their post-playing careers due to poor decisions made while they were playing.
This is not the case for former New Jersey Nets forward Bobby Simmons, who is using the skills and connections that he developed throughout his playing career to his benefit now that he has retired from the game of basketball.
In an interview with Nothin’ But Nets, Simmons, now the owner of a variety of business including fashion boutique Bryson Milan
in his hometown of Chicago, detailed how he deepened his connection with the Windy City by staying at home to play in college at DePaul.
