general election
Former NBA champ Rick Fox announces plans to run in Bahamian general election
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) --- Former NBA player Rick Fox announced he will run
for a legislative seat in the Bahamas in next year's general election.
His candidacy comes as the archipelago struggles with high-profile corruption
cases, an influx of people entering the country illegally and ongoing recovery
from Hurricane Dorian, a devastating Category 5 storm that hit in September
2019.
Fox made the announcement Monday on Facebook.
"You've shared that you want more transparency, a modern economy that
prioritizes affordability and security, and a country where opportunity is our
reality, not just a promise," he wrote.
Fox is a three-time NBA champion with the Los Angeles Lakers.
In 2015, he co-founded Echo Fox and purchased a franchise spot in the North
America League of Legends Championship Series (LCS), part of the world's
highest-profile esports circuit. He has since left the organization.
Fox was born in Toronto to a Canadian mother and a Bahamian father and grew up
in the Bahamas.
