West has had his share of off-court issues since his NBA career ended in 2012. Most recently, he made headlines after his arrest at a Florida police station. The former guard appears to be making a strong effort to turn his life around, however, with help from one prominent NBA personality.

After an eight-season NBA career, West should be a good fit for BIG3, which has provided a route back to basketball for a lot of other ex-NBA players as well.
