Dennis Rodman would disappear for days and miss practice. But this never affected his on-court performance. Similarly, reports suggest that Dennis Rodman would abandon his company, Rodman Excavation Inc, for weeks. However, Rodman’s business didn’t suffer. He was making a profit.

Dennis Rodman is an open book to the world. From his rookie season, Rodman’s shenanigans have been unique, to say the least. Hence, this has kept the NBA community talking about Rodman constantly.

Rodman Excavation Inc. started in 1990. Two of Rodman’s friends, Barry Rich and Rod Vilhauer from Frisco, wanted to start an excavation company. They looked to Rodman for an investment. Despite his peers advising him against it, Dennis Rodman invested a sum total of 20,000 USD. The company was named Rodman Excavation. 

The company started small and grew in numbers. In 1995, they had crossed over $14 million in sales, and Dennis Rodman received a return of 200% on his initial installment. The big bucks continued to flow.
