Antoine Walker lists Maybach as worst-ever purchase
Antoine Walker blew through $110 million over the course of his 13-year NBA career, leading to him filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection in May 2010.
The 39-year-old is in a better place financially now, though, as he's debt-free and working with Morgan Stanley Global Sports & Entertainment to provide advice to rookies.
In an interview with SI's Rohan Nadkarni, Walker revealed that he had a pretty unhealthy obsession with cars, which contributed to his financial problems.
"I had a car fetish when I was playing," he said. "I would always keep six, seven cars. If I would see a guy pull up in the lot with a new car, I would maybe say I like that and go get it."
His worst purchase?
"Probably my Maybach. A Maybach Mercedes Benz. At that time they were pretty high-end vehicles. I paid like $400,000, $450,000 for it."
