Early career
Early in his career, Wexler founded Greenhat Partners LLC, a firm specializing in real estate development and investment. Prior to that, Wexler was a partner in the Memphis law firm of Hanover, Walsh, Jalenak and Blair, PLLC.
With the promotion of Wexler to team president, he was set to guide them through a new era, shifting from the "Grit and Grind" era characterized by the departures of players like Marc Gasol and Mike Conley in 2019.[29][30] The focus will now be on developing a younger core centered around talents such as Jaren Jackson Jr. and Ja Morant.[31][32]
