Introduction

Michael Jordan is an American former professional NBA player with an estimated net worth of $3 Billion.

Jordan was not only one of the most accomplished NBA players of all time but also the first NBA player to become a billionaire and the first black person to own a majority stake in an NBA team.

His partnerships with Nike to produce the Air Jordan sneaker, now one of Nike’s most popular lines, combined with the 2023 sale of his stake in the Charlotte Hornets, helped push his net worth into the billions.

 

Early Life

Michael Jordan was born on February 17, 1963, in Brooklyn, New York.

His family moved to Wilmington, North Carolina, when he was a toddler.

He was the fourth of five children, with two older brothers, one older sister, and a younger sister.

As a sophomore in high school, he did not make his basketball team due to his height. He focused on other sports that year, such as baseball and football. In his Junior year, he was 6 foot 3 and made the team.

During that year, he earned about 20 points per game. He was selected for the McDonald’s All-American Team in his senior year.

 

Career

Jordan was first drafted by the NBA team Chicago Bulls in 1984, and in his first season, he helped the team make the playoffs.

He scored an average of 28.2 points per game that season, which led to his NBA Rookie of the Year Award.

In the 1986-1987 season, he became the first player in years to score more than 3.000 points in a single season.

Over the next few years, Jordan helped the Bulls win championship after championship.

He took a break from the 1993-1994 season for a stint in minor league baseball but returned to the Chicago Bulls in 1995. Upon his return, he came back stronger, averaging 30.4 points that season.

 

Washington Wizards

In 1998, Jordan retired after playing fifteen seasons and winning six championships with the Chicago Bulls. He joined the Washington Wizards as part-owner, returning for the final two seasons from 2001 to 2003.

To this day, Michael Jordan is regarded as an NBA legend and the greatest basketball player in the sport’s history.

Former NBA stars had a significant role to play in popularizing the NBA around the globe in the 1980s and 1990s.

 

Nike Air Jordan Partnership

Jordan is also known as one of the most effectively marketed athletes in the world, with many lucrative endorsement deals.

He was responsible for the immense success of Nike’s Jordan brand, which includes the popular Air Jordan sneakers.

The Nike royalties, which amount to 5% of every Air Jordan shoe sold, heavily contributed to Michael Jordan’s net worth.

Over the years, NBA legend Michael Jordan has had many successful endorsements, including brands such as Coca-Cola, McDonald’s, Chevrolet, Upper Deck, and Hanes.

 

Movies & Documentaries

The basketball player was also a star of the “Space-Jam” hit movie, where he played himself.

In 2000, the IMAX documentary about Jordan’s career in Bulls came out, with a big emphasis on the 1998 NBA playoffs, titled “Michael Jordan to the Max.” Jordan had more recent successes in the film industry, for example, with his documentary miniseries The Last Dance (2020).

 

Charlotte Bobcats/Hornets Ownership Stake

In 2006, Jordan bought a minority stake in the NBA’s Charlotte Bobcats (now named Hornets). In 2010, he invested a further $275 million to become the franchise’s majority owner.

Michael Jordan is the only black majority owner of an NBA club in history, while other players such as Dwyane Wade and Grant Hill only own minority stakes in clubs.

In 2020, Jordan sold a 20% stake in the Hornets, earning him an estimated $300 million. Finally, in August of 2023, Jordan sold his remaining majority stake in the Hornets for $3 billion.

 

Philanthropy

It’s worth mentioning that Jordan has also been an active philanthropist.

From 2001 to 2014, he hosted the annual golf tournament, the Michael Jordan Celebrity Invitational, which raised funds for various charitable causes.

In 2006, Jordan and his wife pledged $5 million to Chicago’s Hales Franciscan High School. Jordan Brand also made considerable donations to Habitat for Humanity and Louisiana’s Boys & Girls Clubs of America.

Jordan’s activity in The Make-A-Wish Foundation is also noticeable. He was named Chief Wish Ambassador in 2008. In 2013, he granted his 200th wish. Up until now, he has raised more than $5 million for the foundation.

 

First NBA Billionaire

It’s easy to see why Michael Jordan is one of the highest-paid athletes and NBA players today. In June 2014, Jordan was named the first NBA player to become a billionaire after he increased his shares in Charlotte Hornets.

Forbes estimated that Jordan Brand generates around $1 billion of profits for Nike each year. In 2021, Forbes estimated that Michael Jordan’s net worth rose to $1.6 billion.

This makes Famer Michael Jordan one of the wealthiest African-Americans in the US and one of the most beloved.

His work ethic is legendary. LeBron once told NBA fans that he doesn’t want to be remembered as just a great basketball player; he wants them to recognize him as someone who impacted the world. James has been heralded as one of the best players in basketball history, next to no other than the great Michael Jordan. By all accounts, Lebron will be remembered as one of the greatest athletes and people ever.

 

Career Overview

Lebron James' Career

In 2003, the Cleveland Cavaliers selected James as the overall pick of the NBA Draft. He was the youngest player ever to be picked first in an NBA draft at the time and is only one of two players ever to be drafted straight out of high school.

His first season was incredible. He set a new NBA record for the most points scored by a prep-to-pro player in his first game and was also named Rookie of the Year.

Within the next few seasons, LeBron rose to stardom, featured in his first All-Star Game, and won multiple Most Valuable Player awards.

In June 2010, LeBron announced that he would leave Cleveland and sign with the Miami Heat for a six-year deal worth $110 million. ESPN televised the decision on an hour-long special entitled ‘The Decision.’

In his first season in Miami, James helped the Heat reach the NBA Finals, where they lost to the Dallas Mavericks in six games. The following year, he won his first NBA championship as the Heat defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder in five games.

In 2013, James received his fourth NBA Most Valuable Player Award. He won a second consecutive championship in 2013 as the Heat defeated the San Antonio Spurs in seven games.

He played for the Miami Heat for four seasons, but in 2014, Lebron James decided to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers. With Lebron James as their leading scorer, the Cavaliers won the NBA championship in 2016 and 2017.

It wasn’t until 2018 that LeBron left the Cavaliers and joined the Los Angeles Lakers as a free agent, signing a four-year contract worth $154 million. James has won far too many awards to list, but you can see some of his best highlights below.

When LeBron James first signed with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2003, he secured a four-year, $18.8 million rookie contract. The deal would be worth $32.1 million if adjusted for inflation. James earned $4 million in his first NBA season, and his salary gradually increased to $5.8 million for the final year of the contract.

In 2007, LeBron signed a four-year extension with the Cavaliers worth $60.4 million. Between 2007 and 2010, he earned an average annual salary of $15 million.

In 2010, LeBron signed his first nine-figure contract, a $109.8 million 6-year sign-and-trade contract between the Cavaliers and the Miami Heat. However, only $64 million of the value was guaranteed, which is what LeBron earned from the contract.

James’ contract included an early termination option, which he exercised after the fourth year. This resulted in him earning $64 million over four years. This era of James’ career was coined “The Decision,” with many criticizing him for leaving the Cavaliers for Miami.

LeBron opted out of the contract two years early to sign back with Cleveland on a two-year, $42.2 million deal. He played one season, earning $20.6 million, before declining his play option. James resigned with the Cavs on a slightly higher-paying agreement, earning $23 million in 2015.

In 2016, LeBron signed his second nine-figure contract, valued at $100 million over three years. James earned $31 million with Cleveland in 2016 and $33.3 million in 2017. He secured just $64.2 million of the contract’s value before declining his third-year option.

In 2018, LeBron moved to the Los Angeles Lakers, signing his third nine-figure contract and the most valuable of his career. James inked a four-year, $153.3 million, fully guaranteed deal with the Lakers, increasing his average annual salary to $38.3 million.

The final year of the agreement was voided to allow James to negotiate a new two-year extension worth $85.6 million.

In 2023, he signed a two-year veteran extension worth $99 million, which was just shy of becoming his fourth nine-figure contract. Finally, in 2024, LeBron officially signed his fourth deal with a value of over $100 million. His current contract is a two-year, $101 million agreement that will earn him an estimated $48.7 million this year at 40 years old.

That figure will become the highest annual salary of his career; if he doesn’t decide to retire after that, he could earn an estimated $52.6 million salary in 2025.

LeBron is the only player in NBA history to have signed four 9-figure contracts. 

Throughout his NBA career, LeBron James has earned $479.5 million in salary, with another $101 million guaranteed. 

 

Endorsements

LeBron’s endorsement portfolio is awe-inspiring and includes Coca-Cola, Nike, Beats By Dre, Intel, Kia Motors, and Blaze Pizza. His most recent endorsement deal is with Verizon’s mobile television service.

The Lakers star reportedly signed a three-year deal with the company that will pay him approximately $30 million to promote the service on social media platforms such as Snapchat and Twitter.

LeBron also has business ventures, including Liverpool FC (a small stake), Blaze Pizza (his part ownership helped make it a billion-dollar brand), and Uninterrupted – a digital media company he founded.

LeBron also owns production companies SpringHill Entertainment and The Robot Company, through which he has produced films like Space Jam 2, which stars himself alongside Bugs Bunny; TV shows such as Survivor’s Remorse; documentaries like I Promise; commercial spots for Sprite soda; YouTube content, and more.

In addition to his off-court earnings from endorsements, business ventures, investments, and production companies, King James is also known for his philanthropy efforts. In 2017, he pledged to provide scholarships for kids who graduate from the I Promise School in Akron, Ohio, through his LeBron James Family Foundation.

 

Lebron James’ Net Worth

When we first covered LeBron’s net worth in 2019, it was estimated to be $440 million. Since then, he’s racked up an additional $172 million salary alone. His earnings from sponsors and endorsements now exceed his salary, taking home close to $350 million from sponsors since 2019. James is the only active NBA player to be listed by Forbes as a billionaire.

In 2024, LeBron James’ net worth is now an astonishing $1.2 Billion.

However, his influence on the game of basketball has made him such a legend among an entire generation of players and fans. LeBron is much more than just “King James.” He’s a cultural icon and a national hero. He’s even a celebrity outside of basketball.

Still, none of this would have been possible if LeBron hadn’t taken on the responsibility to improve himself and evolve as a player and person throughout his illustrious career.

He’s a real inspiration for any aspiring athlete, proving that you can overcome any obstacle that life throws at you with hard work and dedication.

Jackson spent the second half of the 2019/20 season playing for the Los Angeles Clippers on a one-year, rest-of-season contract worth $734,000.

He later resigned with the Clippers on a two-year deal worth $21.6 million, fully guaranteed. Reggie earned $10.4 million with the Clippers for the 2021/22 season before he was traded to the Charlotte Hornets in February 2023.

He was subsequently offered a contract buyout agreement and signed five days later with the Denver Nuggets. Jackson earned $11.8 million for the 22/23 season, which comprised $3.5 million from his Hornets buyout, $7.4 million retained from the Clippers, and $900,000 in active income from the Nuggets.

His current deal is a two-year contract worth $10.25 million with the Denver Nuggets; however, for the final season of the deal, he will play for the Charlotte Hornets.

Thus far in his NBA career, Reggie Jackson has earned $115.1 million.

 

Real Estate

Jackson has mostly been renting homes since his early career, when he played for several franchises. When he broke into the NBA, Jackson rented an apartment and even a car instead of purchasing one for himself.

Now that he’s in the latter half of his NBA career and has made tens of millions, Jackson will likely start looking for houses as he settles down.

 

Net Worth History

Like many who played on a rookie contract, Reggie Jackson was building a foundation for his net worth until his first big contract came in.

2015 was that time for Jackson, as he inked a new deal that would pay him $80 million over five years, all of which was guaranteed.

The figures of Paul George’s net worth are estimated based on his NBA salaries and endorsements and are not guaranteed 100% accurate.

Here’s a breakdown of Reggie Jackson’s annual net worth:

  • 2013 – $2 Million
  • 2014 – $3.7 Million
  • 2015 – $13 Million
  • 2016 – $21 Million
  • 2017 – $30 Million
  • 2018 – $41 Million
  • 2019 – $40 Million
  • 2020 – $40 Million
  • 2021 – $45 Million
  • 2022 – $50 Million

Though his production indicates that Jackson still has several years left of NBA ability, he could retire comfortably today if he wanted to.

Jackson will likely receive shorter-term contracts as he gets closer to the end of his career, which is common for players in their 30s.

 

Personal Life

Reggie Jackson is the son of Saul and Sharon Jackson, with his father serving the military which resulted in the family moving to several locations including Italy and England. Since 2017, Jackson has been in a relationship with model and athlete Jayne Caldwell, though their marital status remains a mystery. If they are indeed married, it would be the first for Jackson, and he does not have any children currently.

Jackson is active on social media with an official Twitter account and an official Instagram account that are both updated regularly.
