Delonte West's options during the NBA lockout are not as vast as some of his contemporaries. West has been told by a judge he's not allowed to leave the country to play in overseas leagues (due to his conviction on weapons charges), leaving the Boston guard to apply for a job at Home Depot. The Big Lead.com reported that West has filled out an application despite earning over $14 million in his seven-year NBA career.
Just last week, Delonte tweeted, “It’s official.. Pride 2 the side.. just filled out a application at Home Depot.. Lockout ain’t a game.”
Working at Home Depot will earn West roughly $10 an hour, at least he's doing something about making ends meet while the lockout endures.
