Michael Redd (Retired)

Shooting Guard and 11-year veteran Michael Redd joined Ohio-based NCT Ventures as a partner.

The VC firm focuses on investing in early-stage technology companies. Born and raised in Ohio, Redd said he plans to use his extensive local network to help NCT’s fundraising efforts.

With increasing access to technology, expect more athletes to get involved with investing or starting their own companies. And, hopefully, they spend their money wisely, or they might end up like NBA forward Antoine Walker.
