AC Green: From Los Angeles Lakers Legend to Food & Beverage Power Broker

AC Green, an iconic professional basketball player with the Los Angeles Lakers, has long been a symbol of resilience and discipline. During Green’s stellar NBA career, he played for the Lakers during their legendary “Showtime” era in the 1980s alongside Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and James Worthy, earning him a place as one of the all-time greats in basketball history. He also played with Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant, winning NBA championships three times (1987, 1988, and 2000).

When Green retired from professional basketball, he transitioned into entrepreneurship, rising to prominence in the food and beverage industry. His commitment to promoting a healthy lifestyle—something that defined his NBA career—continues to guide his business ventures today. 

Through Warrior Beverages and Ironman 45 Healthy Food Products, Green draws from his experience as a professional athlete to create products that emphasize hydration and energy for athletes and active individuals. These product lines have gained recognition as healthier alternatives to sugar-laden energy drinks, sodas, and snacks. His ventures reflect his enduring passion for health and wellness, a legacy of discipline that echoes his years on the court.

Beyond business, Green’s AC Green Youth Foundation mentors and educates young people, focusing on themes of abstinence, discipline, and perseverance. The leadership and character he exhibited as a player are now used to empower youth through sports and education.

In 2024, Green reached a new milestone in his post-basketball life when he received the prestigious United States Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award. From his leadership on the court to his business successes and philanthropy, Green’s life has touched and inspired countless individuals. 

For AC Green, success is not just about accolades—it’s about using his platform to make a lasting impact on the world. His journey serves as a powerful testament to how hard work, discipline, and a commitment to service can lead to success in multiple arenas, from basketball courts to boardrooms.

As AC Green once said, “The same discipline that kept me going in the NBA is the same discipline that will keep you going in life—everyday seek to be the best version of yourself”
