He is currently ranked as one of the richest NBA players to date. Durant is the 12th on a list of 50 rich basketball players and is worth $170 million dollars, according to Celebrity Net Worth. In this current season with the Nets he is estimated to make a hefty $40 million for the year. In 2019, Durant signed his four-year contract with the Nets for $164 million dollars. During his time with the Warriors he reportedly made $81 million dollars, says Clutch Points. But this doesn’t even include wealth he amasses from endorsements. In 2014, KD signed a 10-year contract deal with Nike worth about $300 million. As part of the partnership, Nike offered a $50 million retirement package with the deal (via Bleacher Report). It’s the biggest endorsement deal in his career, but of course there’s more.

The Nike deal alone didn’t skyrocket him to becoming one of the wealthiest NBA stars. Durant has earned multi-million dollar endorsements since the start of his career. He’s the face of a lot of brands, domestic and international. To date he’s signed endorsement deals with more than a dozen companies in different industries. They include the likes of Gatorade, Beats by Dre, Alaska Air Group, and Sprint, reports Sports Keeda. The only other currently active NBA player that surpasses Durant’s riches is LeBron James.
