Dennis Rodman was worth millions of dollars back in the 90s. Considered one of the best rebounders, the NBA legend had all the fame and money that most people dreamed of. However, following his exit from the Chicago Bulls, Rodman’s career began going downhill. Things got so bad that the five-time NBA champion had to sell his possessions. One such possession that was previously owned by Rodman was listed again for sale.

During his NBA career, Dennis Rodman used to earn millions annually, especially when he played for the Chicago Bulls. Rodman officially retired in 2006 from his professional basketball career. However, he had already stopped playing in the NBA league several years before that. In the early 2000s, Rodman bought a custom-made car that he had to later sell due to financial issues. However, in 2011, the car was listed back on the online marketplace again.
