Andre Iguodala of the NBA's Golden State Warriors talks about how professional athletes are more than ever seeking to become successful investors off the field or court. A number of active athletes have taken their cues from retired jocks like Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan, who both joined the ownership ranks. Iguodala also discusses how playing near Silicon Valley has helped him to become an investor in a number of technology-related companies. He also delves into next week’s The Players Technology Summit by Andre Iguodala and Stephen Curry, which will bring together leaders in technology, venture capital and sports to share ideas and expertise. The event in San Francisco is presented by Bloomberg.

Iguodala has spent 13 seasons in the National Basketball Association, the last four with the defending champion Warriors. A 2012 All-Star, he was also the Most Valuable Player of the 2015 NBA Finals. He recently re-signed with the Warriors for three years and $48 million.
