Chris Washburn: Works For A Home Mortgage Company

One of the biggest NBA players ever to have played in the league, Chris Washburn was third pick in the 1986 NBA draft, joining the Golden State Warriors. Unfortunately, he lost his way because of drugs and was banned from the league for life after he failed three drug tests within three years. Needless to say, this ended his basketball career, but in 2000, he finally made a decision to change and cleaned up his act. Around this time, he and his girlfriend went into a fried chicken business and while that lasted just a year, Washburn is now working at a home mortgage company.
