James’ most recent contract is a two-year, $97 million contract with the Lakers that will pay him $50 million in 2024-25, and he makes more than that off the court. While he has expensive tastes when it comes to cars and houses, he is also famously cheap and tight with his money.

LeBron is one of the wealthiest athletes ever.
LeBron has made $432 million during his 20-year NBA career. He also signed a two-year, $97 million extension with the Lakers that will give him $141 million over the next three years. The extension will make James the highest-earning player of all time, with $532 million.
In addition to his NBA salary, LeBron also makes roughly $90 million a year in endorsements off the court.
The King led all athletes with $126.9 million in on- and off-court earnings in 2021. The following year, he ranked second on the same list — behind World Cup winner Lionel Messi — with $121.2 million total earnings.
