Jonathan Bender of the Indiana Pacers was one of the professional basketball league's hottest prospects. He was a unique athlete in that he could play all 5 positions on the court. He was heralded as Michael Jordan's heir, scoring thirty-one points in the 1999 McDonald's All-American game, breaking the champ's record and laying the groundwork for a possibly exceptional career.

Nevertheless, a knee injury compelled Bender to retire at the age of twenty-five , putting pressure on him to find new sources of revenue as the $30 million he achieved with the Pacers quickly diminished. He experimented with concert promotion, rescue work, and real estate investment, all with varied outcomes.
