thug that has "made it" to the big time. Originally refered ball players that made it out of the streets to make millions as a pro ball player, but now is used to describe any thug that is living large.

I always thought there had to be a thugish element. I also thought we were talking about rap star type money.

Definition number 4 is: Livin large, with girls and money

I hate myself for getting involved in this discussion.

Lolz yeah it's a pretty inane debate.

But, since i'm here, it's not so much of a 'thug' element as it is a hustler element. Peoples that went rags to riches doing something illegal or 'shady'. This stuff about playing basketball I think is the result of some linguistic confusion as the original term referred to a drug dealer to my knowledge. So, you can see how playing poker professionally and getting rich is 'baller'.
