How Dennis Rodman Discovered He Was Scammed by an Athlete Financial Advisor

NBA Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman headlines a group of former professional athletes scammed by a financial advisor, who won them over before robbing them blind. Sports Illustrated's Alex Prewitt explores how Rodman and others met Peggy and discovered how she stole their money.

Peggy Ann Fulford built a sports management empire that included clients like Rodman, Indiana Pacers point guard Travis Best, Minnesota Timberwolves guard Rashad McCants and Miami Dolphins Ricky Williams and Lex Hilliard.

Rodman met Peggy through a mutual friend in the mid-2000s and developed such a close bond with her that he thanked her in his 2011 Hall of Fame enshrinement speech.
