In 2012, reports came out that Rotman was broke and summoned to court b/c he could not make child support payments. 5 years later, he still must be broke or "more broke." You gotta pay to live.

Over 50% of NBA players are broke within 5 years. Lots of big names too, like Scotty Pippin for example.

Dennis Rodman meets with sports minister, athletes in North Korea


PYONGYANG, North Korea -- Dennis Rodman has delivered a message from President Donald Trump to North Korea -- sort of.

On Thursday, the former NBA player gave the country's sports minister a copy of Trump's book "The Art of the Deal," a present intended for North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

It wasn't signed by Trump, who was Rodman's boss for two seasons of the "Celebrity Apprentice" reality TV show. Rodman has said his visit has nothing to do with the White House.

Some other highlights of what has been a low-key Pyongyang trip for the often-flamboyant celebrity, who has visited North Korea four times before:

While his previous visits in 2013 and 2014 drew controversy, Rodman has said this week that he's just here to meet old friends and have a good time.

He and his small entourage have been spending time with young North Korean basketball players and visiting local sites.

Rodman watched a North Korean men's basketball team and met Sports Minister Kim Il Guk. Along with the Trump book, other gifts he presented for Kim Jong Un include a copy of "Where's Waldo? The Totally Essential Travel Collection," a mermaid puzzle, two sets of soap and two autographed jersey

Rodman also met North Korean Olympic athletes, including judo gold medalist An Kum Ae.

"All of you guys should be proud of yourselves, because, you know, a lot of people don't give you guys credit, because this is such a small country and not many people from North Korea can compete around the world," Rodman said.

He continued: "But for you guys to come back here in your country, with a medal, that says a lot about North Korea, because people don't really take North Korea so seriously about sports or anything like that."
