Michael Jordan – $2.1 Billion

Michael Jordan is mostly known as a basketball player, but the money he made by playing basketball is far less than what he’s made as a businessman! Today, he is said to be worth $2.1 billion. While playing for the NBA, he’s speculated to have earned a bit more than $90 million.

One of Jordan’s most profitable ventures has, of course, been his deal with Nike. In addition to that, he also has contracts with Gatorade and Hanes. Jordan owns a $15-million house in Chicago with a 56,000-square-foot interior and is the primary owner of the Charlotte Hornets.

Dennis Rodman – $500K

He might not be as wealthy as the other NBA players that we’ve seen so far, but that doesn’t take anything away from Dennis Rodman’s skills in basketball. Throughout his career, he’s switched through many teams, like the Detroit Pistons and the Chicago Bulls.

Rodman’s now said to be worth around $500K. A long list of legal issues, including some long-overdue child support payments, has taken a toll on his assets. Also, he recently got charged with battery for getting into a fight at a bar. In 2020, the documentary called Rodman was released to the public.
