Brad Miller earned an estimated $91 million in his 14-year NBA career, per Basketball-Reference, but he appears to have found even more green in his post-playing days.

The former two-time All-Star center launched a state-of-the-art marijuana manufacturing facility on Friday in California, a representative told The Blast's Erica Steiner.

The facility will be one of just a few licensed class-7 hydrocarbon manufacturing facilities in the state. California officially legalized weed for recreational use on New Year's Day. Miller's company will produce wax and distillate for a strain of marijuana called "Mountain Chief."

Miller averaged 11.2 points and 7.1 rebounds in 868 NBA games with six teams, but may be best remembered for the time Shaquille O'Neal attempted a roundhouse punch on him.
