When you are a jumpshot-maker who currently isn’t shooting jumpshots for anyone, you need something else to do.
And, people gotta eat.
Here’s the Miami Herald reporting on what Ray Allen has been up to lately:
Ray Allen and his wife, Shannon, are trying their hand at nutritious meals with Grown, an organic fast-food restaurant set to open in March in South Miami at 8211 S. Dixie Hwy.
James and his wife, Savannah, opened The Juice Spot in Brickell in December 2013 before closing the juice bar almost as quickly as LeBron James came and went from the Miami Heat.
The Juice Spot closed early this year, leaving a vacancy in the field of basketball player-owned healthy eateries in Miami.
But Allen’s will be different.
The very idea of healthy, organic “fast food” is one of the best I can think of in regard to how the world should be eating. For that reason alone, I hope Allen succeeds.
