What happened: Chalmers said the arrangement gave him access to Lamborghinis, McLarens, Rolls-Royce Ghosts and Wraiths. He recalled buying a Cadillac in his rookie year and a Range Rover several seasons later.
Why it matters: The arrangement let him enjoy high-end vehicles without repeatedly tying up cash in depreciating assets. Chalmers framed that restraint as part of keeping his finances stable after his NBA paychecks ended.
By the numbers: Chalmers described two personal car purchases while rotating among four named luxury marques through the endorsement.
What to watch: Future athlete-finance discussions may show whether similar endorsement arrangements remain common.
