Net Worth History

When we began tracking Derrick Rose’s net worth in 2021, he was estimated to be worth $90 million. Since then, he has earned a further $31 million in salary and additional income from endorsements. As of 2025, Derrick Rose’s net worth is estimated to be $90 Million. 

NBA Salary

In 2008, Derrick Rose signed a four-year rookie contract worth $22.5 million with the Chicago Bulls. The deal was initially guaranteed at $10 million at signing and was fully guaranteed overall. Rose earned $4.8 million in his first NBA season, and his annual salary gradually increased over the next three years of the deal, with the final year earning him $5.6 million.

In 2012, Rose signed a five-year rookie extension with the Bulls for $94.3 million. The deal was fully guaranteed, increasing his average annual salary from $5.6 million to $18.9 million.

Once again, his average annual earnings increased consistently year over year. He earned $16.4 million in the first year and $21.3 million in the final year of the contract, which he spent playing for the New York Knicks. Rose spent the next two years playing for the Minnesota Timberwolves, earning $2.8 million.

However, he initially signed a fully guaranteed contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers for $2.1 million. This meant that, despite earning only $418,000 playing with the Timberwolves in 2017, he earned $2.5 million overall.

In 2019, he signed a two-year, fully guaranteed contract worth $15 million with the Detroit Pistons. He earned $6.9 million playing for the Pistons before returning to the Knicks in 2020.

In 2021, Rose signed a new three-year contract with the Knicks worth $43.6 million. He earned $13.4 million for the 2021/22 season and $14.5 million for the 2022/23 season.

His active contract, worth $6.6 million, is a two-year deal with the Memphis Grizzlies expiring in 2025. Thus far in his NBA career, Derrick Rose has earned $166.1 million, of which $94.2 million came from his time with the Chicago Bulls and $54.4 million from the New York Knicks.

Endorsement Income

During the peak of his NBA career, Derrick Rose typically earned between $13 million and $21 million annually from brand endorsements alone. In fact, for many of these years, his off-court income exceeded his active salary as a player. Between 2013 and 2017, Rose earned an estimated $82 million from his endorsement deals, which break down as follows:

• 2013 – $21 million
• 2014 – $19 million
• 2015 – $15 million
• 2016 – $14 million
• 2017 – $13 million

Adidas Endorsement Deal

The bulk of this income was generated from his Adidas shoe contract, which became one of the most valuable shoe endorsement deals in sports history. In 2012, Rose inked a 13-year, $185 million contract with the brand, valued at roughly $14.2 million per year. Reports suggest that the contract could potentially span 14 years in total and earn Rose as much as $260 million upon completion.

The agreement was structured as follows:

• Annual base salary – $12 million
• Base salary will be lowered to $11 million in later years
• Royalty income from shoe sales – up to $6.25 million per year
• Additional perks included the use of a private plane, payments for assistants and consultants, and a $150,000 donation to an AAU program of Rose’s choice.

In 2012, annual sales of the D-Rose shoes reached $25 million, and by the following year, the figure had exceeded $40 million, likely netting Rose a substantial amount in royalties.

College Basketball

Brandon Ingram’s career took off in his freshman year of college basketball when he scored 15 points playing for Duke University against Yale. He then averaged 21.2 points and 8.8 rebounds in five games to replace the injured Amile Jefferson.

After a stunning first season with some outstanding personal efforts, Ingram was rewarded for his efforts with his first ACC Rookie of the Week award. He was rewarded with ACC Rookie of the Year honors and an AP All-American honorable mention before declaring for the 2016 NBA draft.

Los Angeles Lakers

Ingram was the Los Angeles Lakers’ second overall pick in the 2016 NBA draft, the second-youngest player chosen that year. After signing his contract, he scored a sensational nine points in his debut game for the Lakers in their season opener. He performed well, raking up personal bests in games against the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors.

Selected For The NBA All-Rookie Second Team

By the end of the season, he recorded an impressive tally, and, to no one’s surprise, he was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team. According to the Los Angeles Times, he performed well in his only game in the summer league, recording 26 points and outclassing his opposition.

In October, he scored a career-high 25 points against the Phoenix Suns, then upped this against the Philadelphia 76ers with a career-best of 26 points. The Phoenix lineup included players like Devin Booker and Tyson Chandler, but they weren’t up to the task of beating the Lakers.

In December, he led the Lakers to a 3-point victory over the 76ers, scoring in the last .08 seconds of the game. The win ended a 5-game losing streak, followed by a career-high 14 rebounds and 22 points in a loss against the Charlotte Hornets. He was once again involved in the Rising Stars Challenge, played at the NBA All-Star Weekend, and appeared for Team USA.

Struggling With Injuries

In March, he was injured, suffering a severe groin strain that left him out of the team for 12 games, much to his disappointment. However, his injury woes were not over, and a neck muscle contusion in a game against the Milwaukee Bucks ended his season.

In the 2018-2019 season, he was handed a four-game suspension due to a fight in an October game against the Houston Rockets. He then injured his left ankle, which kept him out of the running for seven more games in December.

But he was back in the game in January when he pulled off a career-high 11 assists during a 138-128 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. In March, he received the bad news that he had deep vein thrombosis in his left arm and was ruled out for the rest of the season.

The New Orleans Pelicans

In July 2019, Ingram was part of a trade deal with the New Orleans Pelicans in exchange for the All-Star, Anthony Davis, and some cash. He started well and, in November 2019, recorded a personal best of 40 points during a loss against the Brooklyn Nets. Brandon beat his personal best in January 2020 by scoring 49 points in a game against the Utah Jazz, winning 38–132 in overtime.

In a game in which he secured a one-point lead, Rudy Gobert was fouled, which resulted in a free throw with only .2 seconds on the clock. That year, he was named the “NBA Most Improved Player” and re-signed with the  Pelicans for five years, securing a $158 million contract. He continued to record career highs, ensuring a personal best of 12 assists and 24 points in December 2021 against the Dallas Mavericks.

In June, he required surgery on his pinky finger, which meant that he was out of the game for at least six to eight weeks. Ingram achieved his first triple-double in March 2023, scoring 30 points, 11 rebounds, and ten assists against the Charlotte Hornets.

NBA Salary

Throughout his NBA career, Brandon Ingram has earned approximately $181.7 million in salary from three teams. However, he still has $120 million remaining in guaranteed income from the Toronto Raptors, which should increase his career earnings to $301.7 million by the end of the 2027/28 season.

Los Angeles Lakers Contract & Salary

In 2016, Brandon Ingram signed a four-year rookie contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, worth $23.8 million. He was guaranteed $10.8 million of the agreement’s value, and would begin his career by earning $5.28 million in his first season. The following year, his salary increased slightly to $5.52 million, and by 2018, he was earning $5.76 million per year. 

In 2019, he was traded to the New Orleans Pelicans, where he played out the final year of the deal. Thus, Ingram earned approximately $16.56 million during his three seasons with the Lakers.

New Orleans Pelicans Contract & Salary

After arriving at New Orleans, Brandon played out the final year of his contract, earning a reported $6.81 million in salary. In 2020, he signed an eye-watering, $158.25 million, fully guaranteed five-year contract with the team, which dramatically increased his average annual salary. He began earning an average of $31.65 million per year, with the first two years paying him slightly less. 

Despite leaving the Pelicans midway through the 2024/25 season, he retained $22.35 million that year, bringing his total earnings with the team to $151.5 million.

Toronto Raptors Contract

Finishing out the 24/25 season with the Toronto Raptors, Ingram earned $13.66 million, which resulted in a combined income of $36 million for that season. The Raptors signed him to a three-year, fully guaranteed, $120 million deal, pushing his average annual salary to $40 million. None of this figure has yet to be realized.

Endorsements

Brandon Ingram’s endorsement deals have been secured through the shoe brands he has chosen to partner with. In 2016, Ingram signed a 5-year contract with Adidas Basketball worth $2 million per year, earning him a minimum of $10 million from 2016 to 2021.

During that time, he would wear shoes such as the ZoneBoost or Tracy McGrady’s TMAC when playing games. When the deal expired, he switched it up and began wearing Nike Kyrie shoes.

In 2023, it was announced that Ingram had signed a deal with the Jordan Brand. Since then, he has worn the Air Jordan 38 Low in nearly all his games. The exact value of the agreement has not been reported.

Quick Facts

• Earned $22.3 million for the 2024/25 season
• Lifetime earnings total $130.5 million from salary
• Currently in negotiations with the Houston Rockets for a 3-year, $21.5 million deal

Before Wealth & Fame

Clint Capela grew up knowing that he would become an athlete, he just didn’t know in which sport, as he was initially good at soccer. Capela became interested in basketball as a student in Switzerland when he hit puberty, and his Angolan and Congolese heritage started to show.

With his inherited height, basketball was a natural choice for the young athlete, getting scouted at the European Junior Championships at 15. He was invited to train at the Chalon-sur-Saône training center, INSEP, in France, where he developed impressive basketball skills.

Capela began his professional career with the French club, Élan Chalon, in the LNB Pro A league, playing for the first time in 2012. His ambition was to play top-flight basketball and become one of the richest NBA players in the world – but first, he needed to prove himself.

Swiss National Team

While playing for his French club, Capela was selected to represent his country, making his debut for the Swiss national basketball team in August 2013. The Swiss team performed well in the first round, winning five of their six games, beating Luxembourg and Denmark, while losing to Austria.

In the semi-finals, Switzerland beat Russia but lost to Italy and Bulgaria, ending up at the bottom of Group G at the close. Capela also participated in the FIBA EuroBasket 2015 qualification rounds, performing well and earning the respect of his teammates for his easy-going personality.

During his time with the French club, he represented the World Team at the 2014 Nike Hoop Summit and performed well for his club. In the 2013-2014 LNB Pro A season, he was named the best young player and the most improved player, the first of many awards.

NBA Career

Capela declared his interest in joining the 2014 NBA Draft and was selected by the Houston Rockets with the 25th overall pick. Capela had landed a spot in a club that included legendary players like Joe Johnson, Trevor Ariza, and Nigerian star Hakeem Olajuwon.

Making his NBA debut with the Rockets, Capela split his rookie season between them and the Rio Grande Valley Vipers’ NBA Development League team. His first season was a dream come true for the young player, coming within a hair’s breadth of reaching the NBA Finals on multiple occasions.

Capela was named Pro A Rising Star and Pro A Most Improved Player in 2014 and earned NBA D-League All-Defensive First Team honors in 2015. During his second season, he recorded his first career double-double. In 2016, he participated in the Rising Stars Challenge as part of the 2016 NBA All-Star Weekend.

Injuries & Setbacks

In December 2016, he suffered a broken fibula, causing him to miss several games and putting his future NBA career in question. Luckily, the injury to his leg proved less severe than expected, and he returned to the basketball court in January 2017.

Unfortunately, in the 2018/19 season, he suffered a thumb injury against the Orlando Magic, which kept him out of action for the next four to six weeks. In February, Capela returned to the court in a game against the Los Angeles Lakers, finishing the season with 12 rebounds in 12 straight games.

The Atlanta Hawks

In a 12-player trade that included Robert Covington, Capela was traded to the Atlanta Hawks in February 2020, making his debut in December of that year. Capela had a memorable season, recording his first career triple-double in January 2021 and grabbing a season-high 23 rebounds in a single game. He was instrumental in keeping the Hawks in the running against the Milwaukee Bucks, but lost to them in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Hawks were happy with his performance throughout the season and rewarded him with a two-year contract extension worth $46 million. Capela’s career statistics include impressive rebounding and shot-blocking numbers. He is known for his consistent play and constant improvement.

NBA Salary

Thus far in his professional NBA career, Clint Capela has earned approximately $130.5 million in salary, split between three contracts with the Houston Rockets and Atlanta Hawks. His time with the Hawks accounts for just over 77% of his lifetime salary.

Houston Rockets Contracts & Earnings

When Clint Capela joined the Houston Rockets in 2014, he secured a four-year, $6.06 million rookie contract with the team. His starting salary was set at $1.19 million for his first season, but by the end of the contract, he was earning $2.33 million per year.

While Capela’s next contract was also signed with the Rockets, valuing him at $90 million over five years, he would play just one and a half seasons with the team under the new agreement. He earned a total of $22.7 million, resulting in combined earnings of $28.8 million during his time in Houston.

Clint is currently in negotiations to rejoin the Houston Rockets for the 2025/26 season, with estimates placing his contract at $21.5 million over three years. However, this is not confirmed, and the contract is reportedly pending signature.

Atlanta Hawks Contracts & Earnings

Midway through the 2019/20 season, Capela moved to the Atlanta Hawks, where he earned just under $6 million to finish out the season. With three years remaining on his contract, Clint finished out the deal at Atlanta, typically earning between $17 million and $18.7 million per year. Although $90 million was originally on the table, not all of it was guaranteed, and he took home just over $81 million of the contract’s value.

In 2023, Capela signed a two-year veteran extension with the Hawks, worth $45.9 million. The contract produced the two highest-earning years of his career, boosting his annual salary to an average of $22.94 million. Since Clint is currently in negotiations with the Rockets, his earnings amount to almost $102 million over five and a half seasons with the Hawks.
