Jameer Nelson finished his long NBA career with the Detroit Pistons. He was known as a smart player, but he begins his new career as an executive with a front office known for recent dumb moves in the Philadelphia 76ers.

The last affiliation Jameer Nelson had with the NBA was playing seven games for the Detroit Pistons in the 2017-18 season.
