James, who is about to turn 38, has completed his 19th NBA season. In the 21-22 season, he still maintained a high level, averaging 37.2 minutes per game, scoring 30.3 points, 8.2 rebounds and 6.2 assists. The field goal percentage reached 52.4%.
After entering the new season, in addition to impacting the 411 Project, James will also add another milestone. His total career salary will exceed 400 million US dollars. He will become the first 400 million gentleman in NBA history.
At present, Lao Zhan 's total career salary is 387 million US dollars, which is already the first in history. His salary in the new season is 44.47 million US dollars. When the two are added together, it will reach 431 million US dollars.
However, this is not an unattainable record. As the NBA expands its business territory, the team's salary cap has skyrocketed, and sky-high contracts are emerging one after another. Top stars can easily get 40 million+ contracts, such as Bill Bill, Curry, Jokic and others are all high-paying representatives. As time goes by, the NBA will definitely give birth to Mr. Billionaire with a larger amount of money.
Among Lao James’s net worth of 1 billion, the salary earned by the NBA accounts for a smaller share. Most of his income comes from investments. The lifetime contract provided by Nike alone completely exceeds Lao James’s entire career salary. .
Netizens predicted a wave of players with the highest total salary in NBA careers in the future, and Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins became the most popular candidate.
