Adrian Dantley: School Crossing Guard
Adrian Dantley enjoyed an impressive NBA career that lasted 15 years. He not only scored 23,000 points while playing, he also earned a spot in the Hall of Fame. Dantley had been coaching before he left the league definitively in 2010 and became a school crossing guard. This low profile job has got to be one of the most surprising post-NBA jobs on this list, as well as the one with the most modest salary, with Dantley reportedly being paid $14,000 a year. It is pretty clear that money is not the motivation here and the big man himself said he likes helping other people. We guess the health benefits that come with the job are not so bad either.

Detlef Schrempf’s major in college was International Business and once his 16-year NBA career ended, he put it to good use. He took a job as a business development officer at Coldstream Capital Management. In addition to his 9-5, Schrempf has tried his hand at acting. He played a recurring character on the hit show Parks and Recreation, and looked really comfortable on screen.
