[QUOTE]From basketball to burgers: The long fall of ex-NBA player Jay Vincent
Perhaps you remember Jay Vincent: Teammate of Magic Johnson's at Michigan State, Big Ten scoring champ, productive NBA player, brother of former coach Sam Vincent.
Well, it seems Jay Vincent got himself into trouble when his career ended.
Big trouble.
Slammer trouble.
Vincent and a partner reportedly scammed 10,000 people out of $2 million dollars. He was convicted of tax evasion and mail fraud and served more than four years in prison, according to the CBS affiliate in Detroit.
The scam? Vincent and his partner, the report says, led people to believe they would become home inspectors for a fictitious company.
Vincent is out of jail and ready for the next stage in his life: As a greeter at a hamburger restaurant
