A few days after Forbes published its highest-paid footballers in the world, the publication released its list of the highest-paid players in the NBA.

The list refers to the income of NBA stars in the 2022-23 season. There are two categories of income. One is the player’s contract and the other is sponsorships. Giannis Antetokounmpo is of course a member of the top 10 and appears at No. 4 with 86.5 million dollars.

Of these, 42.5 million are from his contract with the Milwaukee Bucks for the 2022-2023 season, while the remaining 44 million are from various sponsorships. Forbes reports about Giannis: “For the second year in a row, Antetokounmpo is the only one of the NBA’s top ten who is not yet 30 years old.

The 27-year-old Bucks forward, who was the subject of the Disney+ movie Rise in June, works with online gaming site Novibet and watchmaker Breitling and has taken stakes in several companies, including telemedicine platform Antidote Health. He recently opened a shop, AntetokounBros, with his four brothers at the Athens airport.”

The champion with the Warriors Steph Curry is 2nd with 95.1 million (48.1-47) and in 3rd place is Kevin Durant with 88 million of which 43 are from the contract and 45 from sponsors.
