Al Harrington made more than $90 million in an NBA career that lasted 16 seasons.

The star out of St. Patrick High School in Elizabeth, who became a first-round pick of the Pacers and spent parts of two seasons with the Knicks, instead of easing into retirement has embarked on a unique next chapter.

And it might make him even more money than basketball did.

Harrington, 39, has been in the cannabis game for nearly a decade and now runs Harrington Wellness, a California-based company that makes Cannabinoids, as chronicled by the Indianapolis Star.
