Al Harrington      

Cannabis Advocate, Entrepreneur, Co-Founder of Viola & Former NBA player

Al Harrington is a former professional basketball player. Selected as the 25th overall pick in the 1998 NBA draft, Harrington played 16 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA) for the Indiana Pacers, Atlanta Hawks, Golden State Warriors, New York Knicks, Denver Nuggets, Orlando Magic and Washington Wizards. He also spent a short stint with the Fujian Sturgeons of the Chinese Basketball Association.

Since retiring from the NBA, Harrington has become an entrepreneur. He is the CEO and Co-Founder of Viola, the premium Black-owned, multi-national cannabis company. Named in honor of his grandmother who used cannibis medicinally for her glaucoma, Harrington was inspired to start a company that would bring the same aid to others. With the mission to provide opportunities and ownership for the Black community at the heart of the brand, Harrington uses his platform to advocate for a more equitable cannabis industry and is a key advisor to those shaping legislation on both local and national levels.
