The biography of Chandler Parsons: Fame, Fortune, and Free Throws

By Joanna J. Peck

Chandler Parsons wasn't supposed to be the headline. Drafted 38th overall in 2011, he came into the NBA without the hype machine behind him. But what followed was a career full of twists, big contracts, celebrity buzz, and a lifestyle that blurred the lines between athlete and icon. _Chandler Parsons: Fame, Fortune, and Free Throws_ tells the real story-raw, sharp, and unfiltered. This book walks through the moments that made Parsons unforgettable: the breakout games with the Houston Rockets, the massive $94 million deal with the Memphis Grizzlies, the injuries that derailed his momentum, and the 2020 car crash that forced a premature retirement. It also looks beyond the box scores, into a world of high-end real estate, A-list social circles, endorsement deals, and the calculated moves of a man who understood the business of being famous. More than a basketball biography, this is the portrait of a player who knew how to play both the game and the game around the game. Honest, detailed, and full of moments both glamorous and painful, _Fame, Fortune, and Free Throws_ shows how Chandler Parsons turned a basketball career into a full-blown brand-and what it cost him along the way.
